Through Their Eyes: Military Working Dog
Sept. 27, 2016 | 1:21
Military working dogs have been a crucial part of military operations since World War I. The selection and training process for military working dogs is extensive and rigorous; only the best are chosen to be a part of America’s fighting forces. Once they make it through training, they provide an auxiliary asset to military law enforcement units, to include drug detection, explosive detection or escalation of force support. Training is conducted on a daily basis to keep them sharp for future operations.
