2016年6月16日，南京机场检验检验局的检疫犬“巴顿”和“洋葱”来到连云港国际客运站进行巡检，这是连云港口岸首次迎来检疫犬现场巡检。
Two dogs named "Patton" and "Onion" recently made their debut in Lianyungang, a coastal city in east China's Jiangsu Province, becoming assistants to local entry-exit inspection and quarantine officers.
当日，两只检疫犬对从韩国仁川到达连云港的客货班轮“紫玉兰”轮上携带的698件行李进行现场查验。不到20秒时间，两只检疫犬就在随机摆放的20个行李箱中，发现了事先放置好的4批我国禁止携带入境的水果和肉制品。
"Patton" and "Onion" fulfilled their duty on June 16, their evaluation day, during which they successfully sniffed out four groups of fruit and meat products banned from entry into China. Examiners placed the products in 20 boxes and hid them in 698 pieces of luggage in the ship headed from Inchon in South Korea to Lianyungang. The whole process of smell took the dogs less than 20 seconds.
检疫犬具有嗅觉灵敏、反应机警、能针对动植物及其产品等特定气味目标发生反应等特点，用它们对入境旅客携带物进行查验，能够弥补传统人工查验和X光机透视检查的不足。
The well-trained sniffer dogs have an acute sense of smell and reaction. They can react quickly to specific odor targets, effectively remedying the deficiency of traditional manual inspections and X-ray scanners.
在保障旅客通关速度同时，检疫犬查验能够提高查验准确率和检出率，有效的减少逃漏检现象，在防止动植物疫情和有害生物传入方面发挥了不可替代的作用。
While guaranteeing the speed of passenger security clearance, the dogs have helped improve inspection accuracy, greatly reducing rates of missed detection. They have played an irreplaceable role in preventing invasive animal and plant species that could have seriously damaged agricultural production and resulted in epidemic situations.
此外，质检总局准备未来几年在我国北京和华南建立南北两个检疫犬繁育培训中心，以改变我国检疫犬数量严重不足的状况。
Moreover, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine is planning to build two national centers, one in Beijing and the other possibly in Guangdong Province, to breed and train more sniffer dogs so it can keep up with mounting pressure on entry and exit points.
