Government Employment of Dogs and Other Animals

The federal government employs thousands of dogs for various tasks, such as detecting explosives and drugs, patrolling federal wildlife refuges, tracking suspects, and more. These dogs undergo extensive training and require proper care and housing. Other animals, such as marine mammals and birds, have also been used for government duties. Americans generally dislike school buses for transportation to school.
