Dog sniffs are different. The court said that like 50 years ago. They don't count as a search, period. Kyllo was all about technology.
Unless they revisit that holding it's fine. You can do whatever you want with a dog, assuming you're lawfully in the place.

They need a search warrant!
I would demand it if they showed up at my place

if i ever decide to own my own home it will be fenced...even the driveway....they will not be able to enter my property
If you think that's going accomplish anything you're in for a rude surprise.

Dogs can be easily manipulated into giving signals that capricious enforcers of law want. And those same capricious enforcers of law can just claim that they got a signal from a creature that can not be cross examined or held to legal account for its actions...
The court will revisit this dynamic.

Obama will make a law that drug dealers are linked with terrorism and this will give police all the rights they need to break into your house and do whatever they want.

I don't really see what's wrong with it. The cop is allowed to go knock on your door and ask you a question just like anyone else is allowed to come up and knock on your door. Why he can't bring a dog with him I don't really know.
There's nothing wrong with it if the dog is only there as protection of the cop. But that wasnt the case; the dog was there being used as an investigative tool while on the property of the home owner. In order for him to use that dog as it is intended - a drug sniffer - he needed a warrant to be there.

When the cop comes through my gate, he's trespassing. If he gets to the front door and knocks, he's still trespassing. Now I may decide to let him slide on that, but that is MY choice.

That's not how the law works. Unless your gate is locked.

I seem to remember stories of the DEA using infrared equipment from helicopters to detect growing operations (the heat from all the grow lamps). If that was legal then this is too.
