MILLINGTON, Tenn. - Military Working Dogs Quax and Uno from Pearl River, Louisiana,
serve the U.S. Navy as Patrol and Drug Detector Dogs at Naval Support
Activity Mid-South.
As Patrol and Drug Detector Dogs, Quax and Uno are responsible for looking for
contraband and deterring illegal activities.
From jumping out of planes to deploying at sea, Military Working Dogs have
been serving the Armed Forces since 1942. They are trained to seek out
enemies while on deployment and to be the first line of defense for their
units. To ensure mission readiness, training is year-round and includes
obedience, building search, scouting, bite work and detection.
