Description
These are the stories we rarely hear — the ones that stay with soldiers long after the war is over.
From the frozen training grounds of Norway to the deserts of Afghanistan, from the jungles of East Timor to the streets of Ukraine, these remarkable dogs have served in every climate and conflict. Trained to detect explosives, track enemies, protect bases, and comfort soldiers under fire, they have saved countless lives while asking for nothing in return.
These pages share the real accounts of soldiers and handlers who trusted their lives to a dog — rescue dogs turned warriors, mascots who became comrades, and special operations canines who leapt into danger without hesitation. What sets these stories apart is not only the dogs’ loyalty and courage, but also the unbreakable bonds they forged with their human partners — bonds that endured long after the battle ended.
Dogs of War is a tribute to the courage, sacrifice, and unwavering companionship of the four-legged diggers who carried the weight of war alongside those who led them.
Nigel Allsopp has worked with military and police dogs for over three decades, both in Australia and internationally. He has spent many months over the last several years in war-torn Ukraine, training handlers in advanced K9 First aid — continuing his mission to honour the animals who serve beside us.
Royalties will be donated to The Australian War Animal Memorial Organisation.
‘More than heroes, these dogs were lifelines — loyal, fearless, unforgettable.’
