Sure, I know about that.
It is part of the (IMHO completely off) ways the Law is applied in the US, I don't think that the same exists (or is used to the same extent) in other countries.
But the base issue is still about reliability of the dog, the integrity of the trainer handler and how it is considered "acceptable" see:
