92 military K9 dogs leave Afghanistan, will get new homes in the U.S

At least 92 American veteran K9 dogs that worked alongside the U.S service members in Afghanistan are taken back to America to live the rest of their lives in peace.

The K9 dogs served the military mission in Afghanistan helping in both explosives and narcotics detection together with their human counterparts. These dogs have escaped possible death threats, however, some others have lost lives on the battle site.

The dogs that return back to the United States will stay at their handlers' homes for the rest of their lives.

Due to being no K9 services company in Afghanistan, the military dogs were brought from the American K9 (AMK9), founded in 2003.

The first and only Afghan dog service provider company established in January 2018 to assist both the military dogs and pets owners with the supply of dog food, accessories, toys and clinical services.

AMK9 recently gave an update on the 92 K9s and their lives following their return to the U.S. They also talked about some of the people involved in facilitating the transfer from a theater of war to life in the States. Some of them even continued to serve in K9 roles once they returned to the U.S.

This comes as the U.S and the Taliban, a notorious terrorist group with whom the United States and other NATO members fought 19 years since 2001, will sign a peace deal today, Saturday on the 29th day of February 2020 in Doha, Qatar.

According to the agreement with the Taliban, the U.S forces will withdraw from Afghanistan as per an agreed schedule.

Currently, there are 15,000 American soldiers in Afghanistan to assist Afghanistan National Security Defence Forces (ANSDF) with the military operations.

The U.S government announced they will reduce the number of troops too nearly 8,000 after they sign a deal with the Taliban.
