Synopsis
As Seen on 60 Minutes As a Navy SEAL during a combat deployment in Iraq, Mike Ritland saw a military working dog in action and instantly knew he'd found his true calling. Ritland started his own company training and supplying dogs for the SEAL teams, U.S. Government, and Department of Defense. He knew that fewer than 1 percent of all working dogs had what it takes to contribute to the success of our nation's elite combat units, and began searching the globe for animals who fit this specific profile. These specialized canines had to pass rigorous selection tests before their serious training could begin. The results were a revelation: highly trained working dogs capable of handling both detection and apprehension work in the most extreme environments and the tensest of battlefield conditions. Though fiercely aggressive and athletic, these dogs develop a close bond with the handlers they work side by side with and the other team members. Truly integrating themselves into their units, these K9 warriors are much like their human counterparts--unwavering in their devotion to duty, strong enough and tough enough to take it to the enemy through pain, injury, or fear. For the first time ever, the New York Times bestseller Trident K9 Warriors gives readers an inside look at these elite canines--who they are, how they are trained, and the extreme missions they undertake saving countless lives, asking for little in the way of reward. From detecting explosives to eliminating the bad guys, these powerful dogs are also some of the smartest and most highly skilled working animals on the planet., The New York Times bestseller featured on 60 Minutes , this is the first book to take readers inside the world of elite Navy SEAL dogs.

    • My kind of Book

      As a dog lover, I have always been fascinated by military and police dogs. This book gives me the knowledge I've been looking for. The author goes into the history of military dogs and what they've meant to our soldiers. The stories are moving. These dogs are truly Guardian Angels. This book is a keeper.

    • An excellent portrayal of heroes and their adventures

      This was a gift for my husband. He retired as a K-9 officer with the California Highway Patrol. We now have his retired Belgian Malanois at home. An excellent book on heroes of all kinds risking their lives for us everyday. Bravo and many thanks to all of them.
