Excerpt from Scout, Red Cross and Army Dogs: A Historical Sketch of Dogs in the Great War and a Training Guide for the Rank and File of the United States Army
It is now more than a year since I wrote the above and we are getting ready to do our bit to help ourselves and our Allies. The mistakes that our Allies made we are trying to avoid; and doing the best we know how, we surely will not neglect the dog, the God-given creature with the big heart and working brain to aid us to gain our ends.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a fascinating and timely exploration of the vital role dogs played in the First World War. The author, writing in 1917, captures the burgeoning awareness of canine capabilities in wartime and details the many ways in which dogs were trained and deployed to assist armies across Europe. From serving as sentries and scouts to locating the wounded and even hauling machine guns, the book delves into the diverse roles dogs fulfilled in the conflict, highlighting their extraordinary intelligence, loyalty, and courage. Beyond the practical details of training and deployment, the author explores the deeper significance of the human-canine bond in times of war. He eloquently emphasizes the comfort and support dogs provided to soldiers, and the immense contributions they made to reducing casualties and rescuing wounded men. The book goes beyond simply documenting the historical use of dogs, it presents a compelling argument for their importance in future military endeavors. The author's impassioned plea for greater recognition of dogs' capabilities speaks to the timeless bond between man and his best friend, and the enduring power of this relationship to improve the lives and well-being of both.
