Labrador retrievers Lucky and Flo recently sniffed out a shipment of pirated DVDs worth about $435,000 in a building in Petaling Jaya, Malaysia.
It was at least the second such bust since mid-March, when the U.S. Motion Picture Association of America loaned the dogs to Malaysian authorities because they can detect the polycarbonate and unique chemicals in the discs.
Lucky and Flo are so successful that a crime gang has reportedly put out a contract on them.

Dogs are great for finding contraband 🙂
still if they are talking retail price, maybe 20-30,000 units.
nice find

There have been many crime fighting dogs. I remember reading about one that was rescued from a drug dealer who had been abusing it. They raided a house for drugs and found a dog beat up and in the freezer. Incredibly, he was still alive and they saved him. They were impressed with how intelligent the dog was, and ended up training him as a dog that sniffs out drugs. He ended up being the best police dog and resulted in many major drug busts!
