Dog joint training

Military Working Dogs are a vital part of today's fighting force. With built-in radar, they are able to smell out trouble that no human or man-made device can. K-9 teams in the Army provide a variety of support, from patrol work around base to searches during health-and-welfare inspections and sweeps for explosives. In Iraq and Afghanistan, K9 teams assist in numerous missions including detecting threats like improvised explosive devices. U.S. Army Video by Pfc. Geordan J. Tyquiengco, 8th TSC Public Affairs.
