There's one group of veterans most people never hear from.

They’re called the ‘quiet professionals’.

They take on the most dangerous missions, often anonymously, and ask for nothing in return.

Here's what these Belgian Malinois do for our country.

Weekly Bite

The military relies on working dogs for 3 critical functions: detection, patrol, tracking, or a combination of these skills.

1️⃣ Detection dogs sniff out explosives or narcotics, saving countless lives before threats are ever seen.

2️⃣ Patrol dogs apprehend suspects, search buildings and areas, protect their handlers, and maintain control in high-pressure situations.

3️⃣ Tracking dogs follow scent trails to locate enemy combatants or missing people.

But the most elite dogs? They're called Combat Assault Dogs (CAD).

They do everything above in the most extreme conditions imaginable, alongside Special Operations forces.

What happens when they retire?

Fortunately, over 90% are adopted by their handlers

Otherwise, law enforcement agencies are next in line but many retired MWDs aren't adopted by police due to age or injuries.

That's where civilians like you and I come in.

The adoption process isn't quick. It involves careful screening and long waiting lists since they aren't typical pets.

But it’s one way to thank these quiet professionals…

TL;DR: Belgian Malinois serve 3 military functions: Detection, Patrol, Tracking, or a combination. The most elite are Combat Assault Dogs (CADs) who work with Special Operations. Over 90% are adopted by their handlers when they retire, but civilians can adopt those who need homes.
