German shepherds and retrievers are commonly used, but the Belgian Malinois has proven to be one of the most outstanding working dogs used in military service. Around 85 percent of military working dogs are purchased in Germany or the Netherlands, where they have been breeding dogs for military purposes for hundreds of years. In addition, the Air Force Security Forces Center, Army Veterinary Corps and the 341st Training Squadron combine efforts to raise their own dogs; nearly 15 percent of all military working dogs are now bred here.
Created in the erstwhile Soviet Union during the height of the Cold War to be a guard dog, the Black Russian Terrier has moved from military to civilian life as a welcomed family companion and guardian. Breeds used in its creation include the Airedale, the Giant Schnauzer, the Rottweiler, the Newfoundland and the Caucasian Ovtcharka. Males stand 27 to 30 inches tall and weigh 110 to 132 pounds. Females are 26 to 29 inches tall and weigh 100 to 110 pounds.
