Military Dogs: First line of defence in anti-terror operations- IN PICS

The only animal which can be closely associated with man are Dogs. Since World War II, the US army, for the first time, used dogs in combat for carrying out operations against enemies. Even in India, the Canine Squad of the Indian army is the first responder in any anti-terror operation in Jammu and Kashmir. The loyalty and combat skills of dogs are incomparable, hence the pooches are specially trained and then inducted into the forces. 

The Indian army has special awards for the dogs for their bravery. From the Chief of Army Staff Commendation Card, Vice Chief of Staff Commendation Card and GOC in Chief Commendation Card, these dogs are awarded for their performance during various operations.
