As a former military K-9 handler in peace time, it is still heart warming to see military dogs at work. My dog was trained only in one discipline, detection. You come up on him or get to close you had better be prepared to get bitten.

"The Working Dog"

My eyes are your eyes,
to watch and protect you and yours.

My ears are your ears,
to hear and detect evil minds in the dark.

My nose is your nose,
to scent the invader of your domain.

And so you may live,
my life is also yours.

I saw somewhere that the above MWD was wounded and may lose a leg, but is expected to recover fully otherwise. Good pup!

Bravo Zulu, Old Pup!

Is it just me, or does that dog look like he has some Akita in him?

Injured military dog who chased down al-Baghdadi returned to full duty

This military K-9 was slightly wounded in the raid on ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, and was fully recovering. The dog, whose name is not being released, is still in theater and returned to duty with his handler.

Army Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told reporters Monday at the Pentagon that the military working dog injured during the raid that killed Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has been returned to duty.

President Donald Trump told reporters Sunday that a military working dog had been wounded during the American commando raid after chasing the elusive ISIS leader down a dead-end tunnel.

Al-Baghdadi detonated a suicide vest killing himself and three children in the tunnel with him, according to Trump.

Milley said the dog was only “slightly wounded” and was fully recovering. The dog, he explained, was still in theater and returned to duty with his handler.

Al-Baghdadi’s last moments alive were spent in “panic and dread” as the ISIS leader was “terrified of the American forces bearing down on him," and he died “whimpering and crying and screaming” like a coward, Trump told reporters Sunday.

The name of the dog is not being released due to the classification of the unit involved in the raid.
