Jet To GO wants to lease production equipment from ABC Co.  The payments are $200,000 per year for 5 years payable at the beginning of each year.

The officer questioned the driver about his conduct, obtained his license and registration, asked a passenger for his license, and asked them both about the nature and purpose of their travels. The officer then ran a police record check on them. The officer then issued a warning citation to the driver and returned the documents to the two men. The officer then asked for permission to walk his dog around the car and was denied permission. About 7 or 8 minutes after the warning had been issued at 12:45 pm, another officer arrived and led his dog around the vehicle. The dog alerted and the two men were arrested.  Was this a valid traffic stop?
