Current Events - Military dogs ready to protect and serve


The news is talking about the military dogs' training. It introduces when the military dog team was established, how the handlers train the dogs, and what the military dogs do. The military dog's training is hard and time-consuming.
Also, they interview the Military Police dog squad chief Lieutenant, he said:"Know your dogs and love them with your all your heart. If you do, they will pay you back by sacrificing themselves and keeping you alive on the battlefield." This sentence is my favorite one in the news.

After I read this newspaper, I started to respect the one who was working at the Military Police dog squad, both the dogs and the human beings. They have to be very patient and professional.
To communicate with the dogs is really hard. In my opinion, talking to people who are in the same language can be difficult, still less a dog.
The dogs can't speak, but they have to know what the dogs need and when they will need anything. There is not only a dog, and every dog has it's own characters and habits. To be their friends would be more difficult than be with a human beings.
The most interesting part to me is the dogs would sacrifice it selfs to save it's handler's life. It is hard to see in our social. Maybe dogs is really a good friend, even better than a human beings.
This news is really interests me a lot, and I also learn a lot from it.
