army dogs put down

[THE STIFFMEISTER 16,112]

I’ll ask you one question 

would you be happy living with your kids next door to a Belgian mallnois that’s been shifted around the country indeed the world , used by various levels of  handlers , that’s been exposed to gunfire and explosions at extreme proximity ? 

I’ll use a phrase embedded into mod nonmenclature , 

“risk”

I’d safer to put these dogs down......safer for the public and safer for the Army.

Nobody want a kids head torn off and, as much as people are humming Land or Hope and glory and saying these dogs need a medal, the Army don’t want to be paying the No win, No fee solicitors claims when said kids face does get ripped off.

Thats about the strength of it !

Nail in the fuvking head

ask the sas to take them home then? 

Itsbthe cry of every dog handler in the forces

”yeah I’m gonna adopt him when I get out” 

cause you are! 

Youd need a set up like battersea to house all the spaniels, labs, mals the average handler sees 

also don’t assume , military means good! 

The average trainer isn’t a socks or a Phil Lloyd , it’s a twenty one year old washing the kennels out as quickly as possible to get back onto Facebook 

the idea of welcoming into you home an attack dog trained by that calibre of experience is actually frightening to think about

Always remember asking the old man as a nipper what them scars were on his arm done by a GSD when he did his national service in the RAVC the same dog he got sent out to Aden with and he often would reminisce about the bad temperd dog he got lumberd with in an affectionate way I always used to ask what happened to his dog rummy he did not know.

Rummy more than likely met a remy

Couldn't agree more, Prison service police serve or surely they could be re loated within the armed forces as security dogs on military bases?????

And then when they'e too old for that type of work?

Not as much bullshit in the 50s as their is now days the old man knew the dogs days were numberd and would never return from the middle east once out their.

In the newspaper it makes it sound like there just sniffer dogs.

Don't a lot of theses service dogs in war zones get finished due to the dog equivalent of PTSD

Them dogs are better in the ground then assaid ending up in the wrong hands/wrong situation. Too many of the malis in the hands of divs as it is let alone one thats had a small amount of training.

some would say would you want your kid living next door to a bull x which has smashed endless amounts of quarry mate.

 

I see where your coming from i'm on the fence now, i do think several temperaments tests are needed and I wouldnt be wanting to give a dog to anyone living in suburbia a nice home out in the sticks would be sufficient.

Funny a guy I know has just re homed a large leaburger(spelling) ? It's nine years old and comes from Bosnia it's been an army dog then a guard dog but now lives a lovely life on a farm, comes to the pub and sits by the fire and is generally a lovely well rounded animal, I can't stand the attitude let's kill them all incase one goes wrong, all the bollacks about living by kids etc give them a chance it's like convicting someone incase they commit a crime, there are still a few people about that actually have a good relationship and knowledge of there dogs and there are just as many div,s about with a big dangerous mutt on a chain with very little control, I,d rather shoot the local div with his pit bull  than kill a good dog that just needs some love and understanding and a quiet place to see out its days, sorry

My in laws used to rehome retired police dogs, I wouldn't trust them let alone an army dog .... Too much previous history that people taking them on don't know about
