War Dog II
The dog that started it all has been identified — or so we think. The canine member of the U.S. Navy SEAL Team 6 that took down Osama bin Laden — a Belgian Malinois who answers to the name of Cairo — reportedly met with President Barack Obama behind closed doors last week. But even as that burning question now appears to have been answered, the excitement over war dogs abounds. Speculation and rumors have been flying, from titanium teeth to canine parachute jumps to just how a dog might’ve brought down bin Laden. Here’s some more war-dog fodder to chew on.
