Selection of Dogs for Land Mine and Booby Trap Detection Training. Volume I

Abstract

It is imperative that all dogs considered for enrollment in a land mine/booby trap detection training program be submitted to a thorough screening process prior to acceptance. Only those animals which meet the criteria herein specified are selected for formal training. Numerous physical and behavioral dimensions must be weighed during the course of selection, and, unfortunately, many aspects of the decision-making process remain largely subjective in nature.
