The War Dog's Story: Giving a Voice to the Voiceless [extended trailer 2]

Throughout history, dogs have accompanied man at work and play. Even during wartime, dogs functioned as mascots and trained in a variety of jobs to protect and save lives on battlefields throughout the world.
In this series, we focus on the roles dogs performed during times of war in support of our ground troops. From WWI when dogs served as mascots in the trenches of France to WWII when they were highly trained to perform jobs a soldier could not do that protected our troops from harm and helped to defeat the enemy. You will hear the stories from veteran war dog handlers of the Korean War and the Vietnam War about the roles their heroic dogs played to save their lives and the lives of others under extreme combat conditions.
With the global war on terror, military working dogs continue to be an invaluable lifesaving asset serving with our special operations community.
Since WWII, Military Working Dogs have consistently played a vital role in times of peace and war, oftentimes paying the ultimate price for their service and sacrifice.
This is a War Dog’s Story - giving a voice to the voiceless.

These dogs need to be celebrated just as much as our men and women in uniform. 3:50 I was fostering a Staffordshire Bull Terrier named Apollo. He was an amazing pup. It took me 6 months to put two and two together to realize that he was alerting me to an upcoming Migraine. I didn't even know dogs could alert to Migraine. It was that day that I adopted him. We went through medical dog training, and he became an official Medical Alert Dog in 2018. What he was detecting was the dump of serotonin that my brain was doing 2-3 hrs. before the pain would start. He did this all on his own. He was never before trained in anything like this. He was born into a dog fighting ring and used as a bait dog. When they were done with him, he was used as a junk yard dog, left outside with no shelter. I saved his life, and he saved mine. RIP Apollo. I love you buddy and miss you everyday. Always remember God spelled backwards is Dog.

Unfortunately, in the military and police, they are seen as pieces of kit. They will be sent in to do the job humans can't, or if it's too dangerous to send in a human, the dog goes. That's just how it is. Of course, most of the handlers will form a bond with them but commanders and higher ups see them as more expendable than humans. We live in the country and one time we got mice. They got into the house, went up the walls and into a spare bedroom that was rarely used so the door was kept closed. One day a mouse appeared. We let Lily, our little cat(still a kitten) go to work and set traps. she killed 5 or 6 and we trapped about 8 or 9 in the space of a week, then she finished the others off over the next few months. She was only about seven months old but she turned out to be an excellent mouser. At first we were really happy about her doing the number on the mice, but then we started to worry about her health if she ate one. I was terrified of her catching something. I was constantly watching her behaviour to be sure the mice were taken from her as soon as she killed them. I wouldn't be able to do the type of work that would endanger my dog. I just couldn't.

[@madmachine5244]

Fortunately now days things are a lot better because of animal rescue groups helping soldiers reunite with their K-9 partner. These animal rescue groups also helped soldiers bring home their furry companions that they adopted while surviving overseas. I think it’s lest that should be done. Here’s a quick story; Many of squads have adopted a dog or three in Iraq. These dogs would wait at units huts for their new pack mates to return for the day. The dogs and their human pack mates would greet each other and enjoy their evening together and other any other spare time they could find. Then one night a little after lights out the dogs outside would alert the dogs inside they might be something off and after few more moments they start barking like crazy which was unusual. That’s woke up their human pack mates and they then grab their rifles to see what was wrong. They just got outside when the insurgents started attacking the barracks area. But thanks to their K-9 pack mates early warning no one died and only a few wounded. There was some grumbling about the dogs from command but after the attack they stopped grumbling. The soldiers found a way to get the dogs shipped back to the states (often at high personal expense) to where a few of members of each squad adopted them into their families.

[@anthonyzullo]

If they are enlisted, you HAVE to recover their remains and bring them back to the states for proper buriel. If you found the dogs in your duty then yes, you leave them behind. I currently have 7 still enlisted and 3 purple hearts as well as a few other medals for their duty.

That may be the case officially, but unofficially they are burried with full military honors. So it doesn't really matter

[@jamiedemarais2958]

US Customs and Border Protection Field Operations also classify them as equipment as well. The Officers do not keep them at home. At the end of the day the dogs are put in a kennel until the next shift. As a former handler I always thought this was the stupidest policy for a government full of stupid policies. You become so attached to them and then not having them at home with you is cruel to both the dog and the handler.

[@3User]

they are treated as a serving member. They have their own ranks, which is always one above their handler's rank, and their funeral procession is conducted the same way as would be for a human.

[@anthonyzullo]

That's not the way it is today. They are SOLDIERS, even placed ranks above their handlers to protect them. When the dog goes down, you recover the body like you do any other soldier. Ots sad ot took a long time for this, but please know, times have changed.

[@GrafindeKlevemark]

Nobody seems to ask about the puppies who were in training to become war dogs. My mother worked in Germany for the British Army veterinary war dogs. The young puppies were first sent to foster homes until they reached 6 months or so. Then they returned to the army training center. Those that made the grade were incorporated in the army; those that didn't were deemed too dangerous to go to family homes (yes, I understand) and put down, not always in a humane way. I visited the center one day and saw a line of puppies hanging from trees (dead or dying). I understand the bond that soldiers have with their dogs, but hopefully those dogs that return from battle are given a decent retirement.....

Refreshing to hear from a responsible gsd breeder ! Idea is to improve the breed NOT JUST improve your bank bank balance. Unscrupulous breeders do rip people off & do irreparable damage to buyers of bad puppies. Long overdue to weed out breeders of genetically poor pups, or falsified pedigree papers. The vast majority of good gsd breeders really should jump on unscrupulous puppy farms and " name and shame" breeders of bad pups who do this over and over again. In Queensland Australia - controlling bodies for some dog breeders NEED to publicize bad breeders. The gsd deserves no less. Many thanks to all the breeders of good gsd pups, they improve the breed.

For many months, we have worked on trying to get a major network to pick up the War Dog’s Story documentary. While the initial feedback on our trailer was great, none of the networks wanted to tackle the subject. From the feedback that we received, the feelings were the same - there was no interest in war stories or the dogs in them. We decided to move forward without the help of the major networks in order to get the War Dog’s Story completed. And so we are now excited to announce our official crowdfunding campaign on IndieGoGo to honor these stories, and the dogs and people in them. Much of the film, and 39 interviews, have been shot already. With the funds we secure, we will be completing the last of the interviews that are needed. How many episodes will go into the series ultimately depends on how much we’re able to raise with the crowdfunding campaign. Once the edit is complete, we’ll be submitting the documentary series to a distributor who we have worked with previously. Other shows that we have produced have streamed on platforms like Amazon Prime, Tubi, and many other services in the past so we’re extremely confident that The War Dog’s Story will end up on numerous streaming platforms as well. Please help us spread the word to everyone you know about our crowdfunding campaign. Every like, share and contribution will help us cross the finish line. People can donate to the project via the IndieGoGo page or directly on the War Dog’s Story web site, and we also have PayPal and Venmo options for contributing as well. From the start, these stories that are being told are what matter the most to us and we can really use your help in letting everyone know about the campaign and the film itself. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Beautiful heroes ❤

Shows how heartless and cold our politicians are, those soldiers and thier dogs being seperated after fighting together for such long time, some melon headed senior officer and weak kneed politicians saying these dogs where to be left behind is an act of a traitor. Those soldiers lives where wrecked when they had to leave their buddies behind. Remember those beautiful dogs are fellow soldiers and deserve the same respect as any other soldier.

They are the best comrade you have besides your team and weapons! I am wanting to save some of them and let them live out their short lives after wartime. Mans best friend for sure, with love

Wow. Thanks for sharing this story. Loved it.

Was Benno the dog Mike Glover talked about in his story from the worst ambush in his life? Because if that is Benno that dog deserves a medal of some sort and his handler deserves it also, because he created something that saved his life and life of his fellow soldiers.
