The dogs of war - English style

[wombat2u2004]

I have to disagree with that - I'm one of the biggest dog lovers around and I hurt thinking of dogs being usded in wars. BUT--I also know the services these dogs give to our soldiers, were it not for these dogs many men wouldn't be here today. I know humans start wars and dogs are innocent victims but if dogs could talk they would never choose to leave their men to go back home. Dogs can accomplish so many things that men can't, they're truly man's best friend out in the battlefield. Sad yes, but lots of other things are sad and it still happens.

Right on.

Before dogs, way back when, men rode into battle on steeds. Those horses didn't have much choice in the matter, either. The only "vetting" they got was to be shot and put out of their misery, and I suspect many suffered for some time before even that minor mercy happened.

Nice to read how the Brits handle the dog situation.
