British Army hero tries to save bomb sniffing dogs from being put down

Famous British Army hero solider Andy McNab has started a petition to stop two retired Army dogs from being put down.

McNab praised service dogs for saving "countless lives when I was in the Special Air Service sniffing out explosives".

Maybe Mr McNab should consider that it was him that put those dogs out of a job by sniffing out explosives by himself. He forced them into retirement by quite literally sticking his nose in the dogs' business!!





"Two Army dogs who retired after serving in Afghanistan are to be put down because they cannot be re-homed, it is reported.

A petition has been launched by Andy McNab - which The Sun reports is the former SAS soldier - in a bid to stop the duo being put down, as well as a third canine, a former police dog named Driver.

On the site, he wrote: "Dogs like Kevin, Dazz and Driver are an asset when they are serving but they even more of an asset when they are retired.

"We owe them every chance possible to be housed and not killed."

He praised service dogs for saving "countless lives when I was in the Special Air Service sniffing out explosives".
