Tasered and shot with a beanbag gun for videotaping warrantless police search

From the looks of it the cops were trying to track somebody (the dog and the comments "He didn't come here" in the youtube video off the boingboing comments) and it looked as if the dog thought there was somebody (or something, drugs?) in the trunk.

In situations such as that how far does the arm of the law reach without a warrant? For instance, if you park your car with drugs in the back and a cop walks his dog by and it smells them does he have the right to search?
