Munich airport. The airport police have received reinforcements: Ike and Bono already found their way into the hearts of Moos airport workers. For smugglers and terrorists it doesn't look good.

Ike and Bono are the new co-workers of the police inspection team at the airport. The ten week old herder puppys are two weeks into their service. They have to complete a two year special dog training course. If everything goes to plan, Bono will become a drug tracking dog. His brother Ike is going to work as an explosive tracking dog.
