It would likely surprise most people that until about a decade ago, military service dogs were routinely euthanized at the end of their working service life rather than be transported back to the U.S. and a life of retirement. Congress and the Department of Defense finally provided some resources to ensure military working dogs are returned to U.S. soil at the completion of their service. These funds do not cover all transport costs and there are currently no funds to help these animals deal with the impact of physical and psychological trauma or illness when their military careers are completed. The situation is even more dire for the much larger group of trained service dogs used by private military contractors for whom there is no funding for return transport or even guaranteed feeding and medical treatment. Mission K9 Rescue co-founder Bob Bryant returns to discuss a bill pending in Congress to provide grant funding in support of military working dog medical care throughout their lives.

Jason Johnson has a passion for Police K-9's and he has dedicated his life to working with them, as well as training and taking care of them. Jason believes that Police K-9's perform selflessly for the departments and agencies they work for, and in return, they are not offered that same respect, in their retirement years, by those they served. It is Jason's goal to ensure he educates the public on the costs and responsibilities of adopting a retired hero and that every Police K-9 in the United States has their medical, food and end of duty costs taken care of for them so they may live the healthy and happy retirement that they deserve. Jason served in the U.S. Federal Government in multiple positions worldwide as Subject-Matter Expert and Field Canine Coordinator for the National Explosives Detection Canine Team Program within the Department of Homeland Security/TSA, Lead K-9 Trainer and Course Developer at the ATF National Canine Training Center, Lead K-9 Instructor for the State Department's Anti-Terrorism Assistance Program, and as High Threat Protection K-9 Handler in Iraq and Afghanistan protecting the U.S. Ambassador and other dignitaries on mobile executive protection details. Prior to his government service, Jason was a civilian Police K-9 Trainer and Handler, an Adjunct Professor at Henley-Putnam University, and a Military Police Officer with the U.S. Army. He also holds a Master's Degree in Security Management and is an accredited K-9 Instructor through the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center. Jason is the Founder of the Project K-9 Hero Foundation, a national nonprofit 501c3 organization, whose mission is to provide medical care, food, and death benefit assistance for our nation's retired Police K-9s and Military Working Dogs. Project K-9 Hero also helps K-9s who need a home after their service, through rehabilitation and adoption. Project K-9 Hero, is dedicated to “Protecting Those Who Protected Us,” by spreading awareness and educating the public.

“There's an assumption that these working dogs are automatically being taken care of after they leave service,” says Mission K9 president Kristen Maurer, “but that's not the case. A lot of them are stuck in kennels — not just in the U.S., but overseas. We really need to get them back. We want to honor these dogs that have given their lives for us.

Canines have assisted human warfighters in a variety of situations over the years. They even have an association of active duty military members and veterans who make sure the animals get proper treatment when they retire.

Season 2 of “The David Johnson Show” - The Veteran Talk Show continues with an enlightening episode with Ms. Danique Masingill, President/Founder of Leashes of Valor, who discusses her work with military dogs to help post-9/11 war veterans. In her capacity as LOV's president, Danique is at the forefront of efforts to advance both the law and science surrounding service dogs. Danique's knowledge and experience helped quickly establish her as a canine expert. Congress, The Department of Transportation, the Government Accountability Office, and the airline industry have all tapped Danique's expertise to craft wide-ranging policies governing service dogs and military canines. For years, the U.S. military has enlisted military working dogs for various aspects of detection, apprehension, and other tactical duties. Dogs were used in this capacity in WWI and WW2 as well as in Korea and Vietnam. In fact, there were some 3,700 military dogs sent to work with the soldiers in Vietnam. By contrast, only 117 dogs were used in Operation Desert Storm, according to the U.S. War Dog Association. Danique Masingill backgroundWhile serving five years in the Navy, Danique Masingill first learned about military service dogs. The lightbulb that went off for Danique was that she was seeing dogs being used in life-saving areas like in mental health, trauma, PTSD and other areas related to combat-repercussions. Previously, she had only known dogs to be used for military detection work, apprehension work, the types of tactical needs tactical work. She saw a path in creating an organization for 9/11era veterans to help get through their combat trauma with the help of military dogs. Today, Leashes of Valor is a national non-profit working to provide post-9/11 veterans with highly-trained service dogs to help them limit the symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) or a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), for example. The mission of Leashes of Valor is to bring veterans in need of companionship together with service dogs in order to enrich and improve both lives. It's a very worthy mission. We are thrilled to share Danique's story with military veterans. To learn more about Danique, read this article from her college alumni magazine.

People love their pets and the military is no different. Dogs play a critical role in detecting threats and engaging potential threats during operations, however due to the loud sounds associated with these events a dogs hearing is impacted in some cases with short term and potentially permanent hearing loss. CCDC ARL's subordinate organization, Army Research Office, have partnered with industry to bring the next generation of hearing protection for our military canine battle buddies. In our 21st episode we sat with Dr. Stephen Lee from ARO to talk about this capability. Click here for the CCDC ARL article on the CAPS program

This week on Animal Instinct, Celia is joined by filmmaker Nancy Schiesari, director and producer of Canine Soldiers: The Militarization of Love. The film explores the intimate bond between military working dogs (MWDs) and their handlers -- combat soldiers who make life-and-death decisions based on the instincts of the dogs who lead their patrols.
Vision: – To ensure the best quality of life for our nation's retired Military Working Dogs and Police K-9 Heroes through providing assistance with medical costs, food and end of duty services. Purpose: – To educate the public on the costs and responsibilities of adopting a retired K-9 Hero. – To help cover or offset all medical, food and end of duty costs for retired K-9 Heroes. – To ensure each K-9 Hero is rewarded with health and the way of life that they deserve for their faithful and loyal service. Additionally: Retired Military Working Dogs and Police K-9 Heroes accepted into Project K-9 Hero will have up to $3,000.00 per year in medical costs covered for them. Project K-9 Hero will also cover the K-9's food costs and have food shipped directly to the owner's residence. Project K-9 Hero additionally provides $500.00 to the owner when the K-9 is deceased for cremation or burial service. Any remaining funds out of the $3000.00 annual medical allotment will go into our general emergency medical fund available to all K-9's in our program for surgeries or other medical expenses that may exceed the annual benefit. This is all, of course, dependent on funding raised through donations. Jason Johnson has a passion for Police K-9's and he has dedicated his life to working with them, as well as training and taking care of them. Jason believes that Police K-9's perform selflessly for the departments and agencies they work for, and in return, they are not offered that same respect, in their retirement years, by those they served.
Pernilla Foyer har i 700 timmar tittat på hundvalpar och sett att tidiga erfarenheter från miljön påverkar, framför allt att tikens sätt att ta hand om valparna påverkar temperamentsutvecklingen. Sveriges första kvinnliga officer som doktorerat genom Försvarsmaktens doktorandprogram berättar för VBV-gänget vilka generella tidiga erfarenheter och faktorer i den tidiga uppväxtmiljön som tycks kunna vara med och påverka temperament hos Försvarsmaktens tjänstehundar.Programledarna Maria Hedqvist och Gurgin tillsammans med poddens hundpsykolog Eva Bodfäldt tar del av Pernilla Foyers avhandling (Early Experiences, Maternal Care and Behavioural Test Design- Effects on the Temperament of Military Working Dogs) som bland annat kommer fram till att tidiga erfarenheter från miljön påverkar hundarna, framför allt att tikens sätt att ta hand om valparna påverkar valparnas temperamentsutveckling och därmed förmåga att bli bra tjänstehundar. Ett av resultaten visade att hundar som bedömts som lämpliga vid lämplighetstestet visade högre påslag av stresshormonet kortisol och att de även visat svårigheter att ta det lugnt i hemmiljö som valpar. - Det är vanligt att uppfödare har valplådan på köksgolvet där det i regel är 22-24 grader, det är val vi har gjort åt våra hundar. Vargen, hundens ursprung, föder upp sina valpar i bland annat jordhålor och där ligger de nära varandra. Hemma i det varma köket så är det inte helt ovanligt att valparna sprider ut sig i valplådan, därmed missar de den taktila beröringen från varandra och tiken, som tycker att det är för varmt, kanske bara går in i valplådan när valparna måste äta, säger Pernilla Foyer.

Since World War II, military dogs of all breeds have saved thousands of lives with their dogged determination to perform various tasks. Now, they can use your help in a couple ways. First, tune in to this special episode of the Oh Behave Show with Arden Moore to learn how you can help a national campaign to erect the first (and long overdue) military dog monument. It is set to be displayed at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio. Second, find out how you can reach out to your local lawmakers to support the Canine Members of the Armed Forces Act that would finally re-classify military working dogs as mere equipment to being canine members of the Armed Forces. Here to unleash the details are former Army K9 handler Kristie Walker-Dober, now a board member for the John Burnam Military Dog Foundation (www.jbmf.us) and Lori Morton-Feazell, of Petco. Petco, Natural Balance, the ASPCA and Military Working Dog Adoptions are teaming up to change the law to aid military dogs. Petco and Natural Balance are staging a special donation drive for the military dog monument during September. Questions or Comments? Send them to: arden@petliferadio.com.
