Yah, drug dogs aren't angry when they smell drugs. They have to be trained to do that. Actually, when a police dog smells drugs, they think they are finding their toy. Trainers will actually sprinkle a ball with coacaine, and they will play fetch with the ball. Then, they'll eventually hide the ball and have the dog retrieve it by smelling it. They associate the smell of drugs, a concept dogs know nothing about, with their favourite toy. I think the dog was just sensing behaviour more than anything else.
