berkeley, dog treats are a pretty big seller. dog owners are using cannabis treats and drops to try to treat anxiety and pain. it's not like the pot that people use. >> the products that we sell and what makes it legal it's derived from industrial hemp and is less than 0.3% so it doesn't get the dogs high. >> veterinarians we talked to say they have not seen illness caused by the cbd product while there's a lot of anecdotally evidence the products work there is no scientific evidence. that's because marijuana is still a class one drug and it cannot be studied. without scientific evidence vets are not allowed to give advice about the products. well, plans are reportedly going to move forward to expand the los vaqueros reservoir between brentwood and livermore. the east bay times reporting contra costa county's water district released studies on that. the district scheduled six

meetings throughout july to discuss eideas for that expansin as well. other bay area water agencies are helping to put the project together and hope to benefit from the expansion that would double the size of the reservoir. a new crisis for president trump. north korea says it has successfully tested an intercontinental ballistic missile. >> that would be a game changer. >> it would be, laura. north korea had nuclear weapons. we know that because they set a few off in tests but they've had no way of getting them to us. new reports on north korean television say the country has tested a missile that can reach north america, at least theoretically. the tv reports showing stills of the test here. now we have some video out of pyongyang of people watching those tv reports about the test. as you well know not everything the north korean government and its government run media say is necessarily the truth. officially back here at home the u.s. military says it's aware of

the launch but they cannot verify. it may be an interimmediate range missile. president trump says north korea has just launched another missile. does this guy have anything better to do with had his life? hard to believe the south korea and japan will put up with this much longer. perhaps china will put a heavy move on north korea and end this nonsense once and for all. there really are not a lot of options for the president. do nothing in north korea will develop a missile capable of hitting our west coast. attacking to lead to the deaths of millions of people. seoul, south korea, is 35 miles south of the about the distance between the golden gate bridge and sfo, well within range of the north koreans. the president had will leave for europe tomorrow where he'll make a stop in poland before going to hamburg, germany to meet with the g-20 group of nations. one thing to watch, how he's

received by amerimerkel and mac the heads of germany and france. he'll meet with vladimir putin. that, too, will be worth watching. the shan sh how will our president treat putin and will he have forcible words? you may remember the g-20 in china with this famous picture. will we something similar? we examine the president's statements and actions each morning on "today in the bay." we'd love to hear your thoughts. you can reach me on twitter and as those who have contacted me know, i will answer you right away. scott, thank you very much. all right. let's get down to business. the two greatest hot dog eaters in the world, what do you know, they both live right here in san jose. joey chestnut and matt stony are going toe to toe. their day is today. it is the time to shine. >> belly-to-belly. they're going belly-to-belly. >> they're going belly up if they're not careful. the hot dog eating contest gets away in a few hours.
