S H T F guard dog

RE: S H T F guard dog
My FIL was with the 1st Division US as they swept through Europe during WW2. I remember him talking about having to shoot guard dogs on the big estates when they cleared them during sweeps.

Same thing in Iraq and Afghanistan with today's troops, they had to kill guard dogs on a regular basis.

When I asked my son about this he answered shaking his head, talking about never seeing mutts as vicious as the ones lose inside the compounds over there. He said you could hear them clawing at the mud brick walls and bouncing off the gates trying to get to the soldiers on the outside. Said he lost track of how many dogs he shot during searches but did report that 12ga 00buck worked well for the job.
