Two of Thailand's top canine agents in the country's war against drugs have
been fired for "unbecoming conduct" that included urinating on luggage and
rubbing up against female airport passengers.
Despite having two of the highest seizure rates on record, the sniffer dogs
working at an airport near the notorious "Golden Triangle" opium-producing
region were fired after passengers complained about their behaviour.
The mixed-breed dogs, Mok and Lai, were pressed into service as part of King
Bhumibol Adulyadej's drive to turn strays into police dogs, the Bangkok Post
reported on Sunday.
One police officer noted that while the two were successful at finding drugs
at Chiang Rai Airport, their manners could not be ignored.
Mok and Lai have been sent to a farm where they now spend their days herding
chickens and pigs.
