Dogs all over the world have helped out for hundreds of years. They offer love and protection, security, helped watch the flocks, guarded the home, and have been used to do important jobs It seems that dogs have been used for a vast variety of jobs and are called upon whenever needed. Perhaps, one of the bravest jobs that dogs do comes through the line of combat.
Recorded history has the earliest dates that dogs entered into war goes back to 600 B.C. Over 2,000 dogs have served in the U.S. military. In the military dogs are trained to track suspects, defend their units, detect drugs, and sniff out explosives. Dogs are perfect candidates to be members of the military because of their loyalty, bravery and their ability to be trained. Thus it has come time to salute these talented canines.
National K9 Veterans day occurs on March 13th of each and every year. It is on this day that all military and working dogs are honored for their service and sacrifice for our nation.
