I was just wondering if there are army dogs in Iraq and if they get to come home too, or if they will be abandon like the dogs in Vietnam.

Military dogs are highly trained and expensive and will not be left under any circumstances. They are not "war dogs" they are like police dogs. The airforce security forces K-9 unit uses them for security, to sniff out bombs, and occassionally to interogate a prisoner who will not conform. Being a dog handler is one of the collest jobs the AF has.

Dogs are used by the military. They are used for their nose and their teeth. Dogs are used for security and seek out enemies trying to sneak onto the base. also they are used to find explosives or (I hope they don't find this on are personal) drugs. If we left are dogs at Iraq, we would be wasting money and work at training the dogs to do the jobs.

Do you already know that the militia sometimes makes use of rescue canine that could quite be euthanized? to boot, saving human lives is amazingly humane to boot. many cases, those canine are used to help come across mines in international places like Afghanistan. in case you pay interest to the information, you will possibly comprehend that their are 1000's of Afghan toddlers who're maimed via mines that have been planted via the two the Taliban and the Soviet Union. on an identical time as canine would possibly not have a call interior the priority, neither do the youngsters who might desire to stay in Afghanistan.

Of course there are dogs there and of course they get to come home. Just like police dogs (most of them are) after they do their 4 years many of them go live with the MPs, or the post vet, or who ever else wants them.
There are more German Sheppards living in military housing here than any other dog. Most of them are retired.
