The Department of Defense (DoD), in accordance with the November 2000 "Robby Law," enables military working dogs (MWDs) to be transferred or adopted out to former handlers, law enforcement agencies or families willing and able to take on the responsibility of former MWDs. Dogs are also available for adoption throughout the U.S. and some overseas locations. The DoD MWD schoolhouse recently launched an informative adoption webpage on the Lackland Air Force Base website for families who want to take in MWDs for fostering or former MWDs for adoption. To learn more about the history of MWDs, visit lackland.af.mil.
