    Correct Answer
    D. Bite and hold a suspect or search an unoccupied building
    Explanation
    Military working dogs should be kept on a leash except when they need to bite and hold a suspect or search an unoccupied building. This is because in these situations, the dogs need to have the freedom to move quickly and effectively without being restricted by a leash. By allowing them to bite and hold a suspect or search an unoccupied building without a leash, the dogs can perform their duties more efficiently and effectively. However, in other situations, such as searching occupied buildings or dispersing crowds, it is important to keep the dogs on a leash to maintain control and ensure the safety of everyone involved.

Loudly announcing intentions to order the dog to bite may be unnecessary and potentially dangerous. Placing the dog on a leash and having it bark three times are not mentioned as necessary steps in the given scenario.
