No you train them to sniff out the sent of the specific type of drug. You could kill a dog if you give them drugs!
Added:
Actually, many, many years ago it was believed k-9 trainers had to addict their dogs to drugs in order to train them to detect narcotics . This is no longer done for obvious reasons.
Narcotics have similar effects dogs as they do on humans, a small dose of drugs won't necessarily kill them, taking into account dose amount and the overall health of the dog.
A dog which ingests a small amount narcotic through their nose will be able to filter the particulates in such a way as to cause little harm. K-9 handlers carry narcotics overdose kits in their vehicles for situations where their dog has ingested too much narcotics. But the circumstances would be similar if a human being had consumed a large amount of narcotics.
Dogs are usually trained with small amounts of narcotics in order to imprint the drug scent in their memory. All properly trained drug dogs are trained on real narcotics, therefore they are scenting real marijuana or cocaine, obviously real narcotics don't kill dogs in small doses or the training method wouldn't be used.
