IMPORT SERVICE DOGS FOR THE WAR ON ICE

The state and counties in Hawai'i should consider the use of service dogs in
fighting the war on ice. It has been reported that much of this insidious drug
is entering our state through California and Mexico.

Each airport in the state should be equipped with canine units trained to
identify packages containing ice. The change in our quarantine law should make
this expenditure and investment a no-brainer.
