S.N.I.F. Committed to providing a drug free environment

About a year ago, Novotak and Garo, aGerman shepherd, searched a house west of Boca Raton. Garo showed there was a sign that drugs had been in a teen's bedroom — but nothing was found.

On the way out, Novotak offered to search the garage and the dog found the teen's marijuana — stuffed inside a door panel of his mother's Volvo.

"These kids are pretty clever these days," Novotak said.
