Good day for dogs at Sea-Tac Airport
Posted on March 26th, 2009 by Harriet Baskas
Here’s a good news story for dogs in Seattle, courtesy of Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA).
The folks at SEA-TAC Airport needed to test out a luggage x-ray system and followed the manufacturer’s advice to use big bags of dog food and jars of peanut butter to see how the system performed.
The dog food was used to simulate weight inside baggage. The peanut butter was a fluid stand-in to help set off the explosives alarm.
The test was a success. And all that dog food? It’s going to local animal shelters.
Woof!
