Navy SEAL Dogs: My Tale of Training Canines for Combat

Description

This is the dramatic inside story of elite K9 warriors - who these dogs are, how they are trained, and the extreme missions they undertake to save lives. From detecting explosives to eliminating the bad guys, these powerful dogs are also some of the smartest and highest-skilled working animals on the planet. Mike Ritland's job is to train them. In Navy SEAL Dogs, author Mike Ritland tells how he was a smaller-then-average kid who was often picked on at school, which led him to spend more time with dogs at a young age. After graduating BUD/S training - the toughest military training in the world - to become a SEAL, he was on combat deployment in Iraq when he saw a military working dog in action and instantly know he'd found his true calling. From battlefield action to world heroics, this is Ritland's story of overcoming obstacles and discovering what he loves to do.
