Soldier Dogs

True Stories of Canine Heroes




For anyone who appreciates dogs and heroes - moving stories of military canines and the amazing bonds they develop with their handlers.

From Stubby, who fought in WWI, to Cairo, a member of the raiding party that took down Osama Bin Laden, here are inspiring stories that go behind the front line to reveal military canines' heroic deeds and the unbreakable bond between dog and handler. The trainers and scientists who work with them disclose how canines are made into soldiers, and families of fallen troops share stories of their hard-earned retirement and adoption. Soldier Dogs gives an unprecedented window into the world of these adventurous, loving and loyal warriors.

'A great read for anyone who appreciates dogs and heroes.' Stanley Coren, author of The Intelligence of Dogs and Born to Bark.
