At the end of the American cavalry era, the Army disposed of
its horses by machine gunning them to death. In our war, the dogs were treated
the same way. Only it was done in a more “humane” manner. Some excess dogs
were reassigned to other bases but most were killed. The US
Military has pledged never to dispose of military working dogs in such a manner
again. A change in the law now allows military dogs to be retired
after their service is completed.
