Retired military dogs, who bravely served our country, are now bringing love and happiness to schools and caring families. These special dogs, trained to help in tough situations, are being adopted by schools for children with special needs and kind people all over the nation.
On the 246th Remount Veterinary Corps Day, the Indian Army presented twelve retired military dogs to Asha Schools and some wonderful citizens. This heartwarming act shows the Army’s dedication to honoring both the human and canine heroes who have served our nation.
These amazing dogs have worked in many challenging environments, helping in critical tasks like detecting explosives, rescuing people in avalanches, tracking suspects, and guarding important places. The Indian Army is now using local breeds like the Rampur Hound, Mudhol Hound, Combai, Chippiparai, and Rajapalayam along with well-known breeds for these essential jobs.
The dogs provide lots of happiness and support, especially for children who need extra care. By adopting these retired canines, families can welcome a loyal friend into their homes—someone who has dedicated their life to serving our country.
The Director General of Remount Veterinary Services (DGRVS) reminded everyone how important the Remount Veterinary Corps is in training and looking after these dogs. After their service, the dogs enjoy a comfortable retirement at the Canine Geriatric Centre in Meerut Cantt.
The Indian Army also cares for retired horses and dogs at special centers, ensuring they get the love and care they deserve. These centers highlight the Army’s commitment to all its silent heroes.
This inspiring initiative from the Indian Army shows how we can respect and care for those who have served the nation, reminding us of the beautiful bond between humans and animals and giving these dogs a happy, fulfilling retirement.
