"He's not used to the full bite suit. The decoy kicked him, and we haven't been doing that with him yet. If you smack him, he's fine. He's more accustomed to the arms, so if he would have been used to the bite suit, he would have gone for the legs. So pretty much he was like, Whoah, you're kicking me!' He'll be bringing home to catch the full scent, then he let the veteran work on his own. Chico found enough of the hidden drugs to capture third place in the event. For the first time since recently being stationed at Hill, Jennifer Gorham had some tough competition. Not only was she competing with the best dog teams in the local civilian law enforcement, but she was also competing with her husband, Nick. The two newlyweds admit that there's a little friendly competition going on. When asked who had the better dog, both replied "I do!" But they also help each other as much as possible. "We talk smack to each other," Nick said smiling, "but a lot of times, when either one of us needs help or wants to work, we're more than happy to help. We just get a dog and go out and train." Jennifer's dog, Marco, didn't do as well in the Tough Dog competition as Jennifer might have hoped, finishing in sixth, just behind her husband and Rambo. But Marco, a new dog in the kennel, wasn't prepared for a few of the curve balls the competition threw at him. Marco had only been trained to attack the arms with the trainers using the arm the gold next year." Jennifer and Marco also picked up a fifth place finish in the building search event. The Gorhams note that no dog is trained for both explosive and drug detection, so along with their dogs, they cover all the bases as Rambo is trained for explosive detection and Marco is trained for drug detection. With the currently high worldwide activity, explosives dogs are in great demand, so Nick is usually called away "at least once a year." Both the dog and the handler go to school at Lackland AFB, Texas, and it's not until the handler is assigned to his base that he trains with the dog.

"With the detection work, they actually have to go before a military magistrate and prove that they can find the odors that we say the dog can find." v Military Working Dogs not only help with C- - pro- tection, detection and detainment on base, but occasionally teams from Hill will be called upon to aid with local civilian law enforcement as well as U.S. Customs and U.S. Secret Service. "We've responded to just about every local bomb threat between here and Salt Lake City in the last seven years that I've been here," Abbott said.
