”I just wanted you to hear this from someone who's right in the thick of everything with these MWDs about just how much these dogs are loved while they're working. They really do get royal treatment that most people don't have the opportunity to see. The handlers love them and so do the vet staff. Yes, they are kept in kennels. No, they don't get to go home with someone every night….but while they are a military asset, they really aren't treated like property.
I've seen big strong military policemen reduced to tears when their dog was too hurt to be able to go on. I've had to console a handler who was in hysteria when she found out her dog had cancer. I've listened to the call come out over the radio announcing that one dog, a favorite and absolute Superstar in her field, was making her last trip to the vet clinic because she was diagnosed with bone cancer... I've seen an entire room full of policeman and veterinary staff tearing up like children on that same day because of it… For her, they had a retirement ceremony and a convoy of handler trucks through the base. It was a terrible day…but it was the best thing for her...
These dogs are the center of attention while they are MWD's, and they are the number one reason that veterinarians exist in the military. It's the part of my job that I take the most pride in.”
