BabylonBee: LACKLAND AFB, TX—Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin has directed all branches of the military to step up diversity efforts when it comes to working dogs in canine units. For the first time, the military– which has always favored German Shepherds in the past– will admit other breeds such as Chihuahuas and Pomeranians.
“We’ve always had this narrow-minded view that the German Shepherd is the best dog for chasing down dangerous terrorists and sniffing out improvised explosive devices,” said Austin. “But why not Chihuahuas? Why not poodles? Bringing in more dog breeds will increase our diversity– which is the greatest strength any military can have.” more

I assume equal pay as well.
Absurdities from the left will forever be completely unmatched.
Indicating a profound loss of mental stability.
I went to Lackland AFB in Texas back in 1976 for dog training. Even back then they were experimenting with different breeds for sniffing out both explosive devices and drugs. Many of the guys I knew, AF guys, had Schnauzers. Yeah, we busted their balls every day, good times.
Chi wah wah?
No meat, stringy and they taste like Rat!
Personally: I would want a Belgian Shepherd by my side for security.
Having poodles in K9 units will be a great idea. Not only would they perform their jobs, but they would also have their fur perfectly trimmed and coiffed. That would definitely send shivers down the spines of the Chinese.
Yea, send in the lap dogs as bomb triggers. Save the German shepherds.
Side note: Rottweilers pulled carts. They still can.
What really pisses me off are people who keep working dogs in small environments like Track home suburbs, and apartment neighborhoods.
Release the hounds!
Belgian Malinois’ love to eat Chihuahuas.
How’s that for diversity.
DavidW: A standard poodle can be a formidable pooch, i have seen them reach 80lbs.Nasty teeth also. Still a poodle though,not many people brag about fighting off a poodle.
Yeah well, if only they had the body they thought they had.
I have a Dane and the wife’s chihuahua thinks it King of the house.
And a happy April Fools Day to you too, sir!
I love Chihuahuas. They have strong personalities but they’re a lot of fun.
😂
MJA:Put a ball cap on them backwards and you have quick little turtles.
LOL
Rhodesian Ridgeback. She looks out the back window and watches my neighbor leave his house jogging and then goes out to the front yard and waits for him to pass 20 minutes later. She’ll run up to the fence barking but won’t leave the property. She doesn’t miss anything and let’s me know if anyone is around. Tremendous watchdog.
What about toy poodles?
They could fulfill the new gay agenda.
MJA, Chicadees are the Chihuahuas of the bird world.
I’ve seen them fight off massive Blue Jays.
I’m tanned, rested and ready…
Chihuahuas are definitely formidable. If a bunch of really aggressive ones were locked in the Oval Office with Xiden…problem solved.
When I was six I had an encounter with a Chihuahua that belonged to my aunt.
She kept warning me to stop trying to play with “Sissie” who was very temperamental.
Did I listen – NO. I was determined to win that dog over.
Sissie got her opportunity to pay me back for trying to kiss her.
She missed biting my eye “by that much” and I spent first grade with a slight scar under an eyebrow. You bet I learned my lesson. Don’t mess with Chihuahuas.
Hey, once 15 or 16 of the little ankle biters knock you down they go for the throat and you are done.
Pound for pound, they put a Rotty to shame.
LOL!
