FISHER, Circuit Judge, specially
concurring:
Like Judge Fletcher, I am troubled by the government’s evident decision in this and other cases, including United States v. Flores-Montano, 2004 WL 3203273, and United States v. Hernandez, 2004 WL 3140549, to eschew reliance on dog alerts or other evidence supporting reasonable suspicion. That I join in the resolution of these three cases on their respective merits, given the limited nature and scope of the initial searches, does not mean I either endorse or feel bound by the government’s litigation strategy.
