Peter,
Easily distinquished by the pile of poop in your pants:lol::lol:
The problem is they always used WAR DOGS for Escape and Evasion, who attack any part of your body, not like the good old Police dog...............as long as you are holding a pistol in the right hand, he's happy and thats what he's trained for, get a left handed criminal and then he's well and truly ******.
I have a scar on my right arm from my dads Police dog, we were training him to not let go of the padded arm when my dad issued the challenge and let him off the lead. Well his teeth went through the padded arm and it hurt quite a bit.
He has many funny true stories but one I like is when he was pursuing a car thief. The Thief hid in a tunnel and shouted out to the 'Pigs' 'I've got Aids, come and get it' so my dad sent the dog in and shouted back 'Give it to the dog and see if he cares'.
Another time a burglar got one over on my dad when he hid in a tree, my dad shouted out to 'come out or I'll send the dog in' to which the burglar replied 'Dogs can't climb trees'. And he was right.
Which Force was he with?
Once the dog has hold of your arm, which he's trained to do or you let him have it he isn't going to let go. So you put the other free arm across the back of his neck, lever back - and break it. . And DON'T try them at home as they say on TV!!!! I appreciate that they're from the restricted extreme survival handbook and sorry to repeat these obscene E&E tactics but evaders have to be told that dogs aren't invincible. And Gil is right of course. While the cops use omni-trained police dogs...... you know the sort...., who have to be civil when civility is needed but violent/fierce when confronted by *******s, Armies use war/guard/attack dogs. But they only have one set of teeth while we have.........
I have a 8 year old niece that suffers from seizures due from being epileptic. Early on she could have as many as 6-8 a day, severe and heart wrenching to see such a beautiful young girl. She wears a helmet when up and around. She so much wants to just be a normal kid.
About a year and a half ago my wife and I were able to connect them (her family) with a group that has assistance dogs. Cutting to today, she and her pal 'Katy' a golden retriever now fit in on the playground with the other kids. Her seizures have been reduced to 2-3 a day. Thoughts being that maybe her stress level is now lower... That dog will lay over her giving a heads up that an attack is coming on. Has to be a touch of God in those canines.. IMO.
The group is called 4 Paws For Ability

Brilliant story and thanks for sharing it.
As I said earlier, we as humans, are only now, in the 21st Century really understanding some of what dogs can do for us. We often learn of their abilities, when the preverbial has hit the fan operationally!!!!!!!!!
I should write a book on what I have personally experienced with so many varieties of breeds, and what they seem to "specialise in", as some breeds are better at certain things, compared to others, its truly amazing!!
Although two different stories, some may remember the news of L/Cpl Liam Tasker, 26, of the Royal Army Veterinary Corps, who was killed while on patrol with his springer spaniel, Theo.
The sniffer dog, described as a "true friend" to the soldier, died hours later after suffering a seizure, with L/Cpl Tasker's family believing he died from a broken heart..... I can only guess it was the stress that caused it, something you can't train into animals is the sudden loss of there owner etc.....
I remember a Lad I sailed with many years ago, He worked for a Security firm whilst having a break from Sea, The van he had was a dog patrol one and was paired with an Alsatian Guard Dog, he said the dog wasn't your normal Guard dog as it whined in the back of the van, it was only when he was called to check a factory that was in Darkness that he realised the problem, he found an open Door, so quick thinking he Shouted I'm sending the dog in and shut the door, expecting screams from the none resident ...... all he heard was whining and scratching on the door, turned out the Dog was scared of the dark......... as long as John was with him and had a torch he was fine he even had to travel in the passenger seat............. obvious over time the bond was well...... (if you've ever had a Dog you know what I mean), John had to buy the Dog from the Security firm at a very high price due to its training ......he tried several times to explain the Dogs condition but fell on deaf ears, in the end and after paying a record amount they both parted the security firm.
My wife and I became the owners of my daughters female doberman mix, that she had rescued from a local shelter. Rhea became ours after my daughter went in to the Navy.
A few days in to our first week with us she jumped on the bed shaking almost uncontrollably. Was it a doggy nightmare? No idea, but after trying every thing we could think of to calm her down with no avail, the answer came soon enough... A thunderstorm! Day or night when she acts like this I can turn on the weather channel and sure enough a storm is coming. Whats amazing to me, even though I know a dog can hear better than I can, she will do this when the storms are still out in the middle of Lake Michigan hours away from our home.
Really glad we don't live farther SW in the tornado alley.
But be it during the extended July 4th festivities, with people shooting off all types of fireworks, I swear that dog sits calm as hell on the patio looking up with a OOOOHHH and AAAWWW type of glare.
Go figure

Not so unusual reaction. I learned to smell storms coming from a dog that had a similar reaction...Quote:

Found what they are called here's a couple of pics of them for scale ~ Caucasian Ovcharka
