Blind loyalty comes at a price. It's a terrible thing really, to be punished for exhibiting such an admirable trait.

Thing with dogs they sell themselves too cheap , see a tin of chappie and they'll do the job regardless of the risk involved.
Look what happened to the littlest hobo after his career finished he became a stray unlike lassie who had a good agent and got decent work .

Dogs have probably got off lightly during conflicts, 8 million horses died in WWI alone.

Just use actual soldiers, they know risk of death is part of the job. It isn't fair to use dogs, you may as well train toddlers to do it if you're removing the element of choice.

I appreciate they save lives, they also die and have no say in it.
You can use robots and equipment to do the same job. Failing that, 1970's Radio 1 DJ's
