MWD's (Military Working Dogs) should be kept on-leash unless they need to bite and hold a suspect or search an unoccupied building. This means that in situations where there is a need to apprehend a suspect or search a building that is not occupied, the MWD can be off-leash. However, in all other circumstances, they should remain on-leash for control and safety purposes.Rate this question:

By giving a verbal warning, people inside the building will be aware that a dog is being released and can take appropriate action to avoid any potential harm. This also allows the handler to maintain control over the situation and ensure that the dog is being deployed in a controlled and safe manner.Rate this question:

Being on-leash also helps to prevent the dog from wandering off or getting into potentially dangerous situations.

The MWD team should always approach buildings from the...
- A.
Upwind side
- B.
Downwind side
- C.
Crosswind direction
- D.
Front side or street side
Correct Answer
B. Downwind sideExplanation
The MWD team should always approach buildings from the downwind side. This is because if there is a hazardous material release or fire, the wind will carry the smoke, fumes, or flames in the direction of the wind. Approaching from the downwind side ensures that the team is not directly in the path of these hazards, minimizing their exposure and allowing for a safer approach to the building.Rate this question:
