Due to the other thread, a good time for an update on our MPSD I guess.
Lahr is no longer in active service as his handler is on a French course.
Vimy (Sheperd) is still active in Halifax, Roxie (Lab) is still active in Esquimalt.
The current CFPM has publicly stated he will not be pushing a Working Dog capability for the CF but, if another Branch such as the Engineers, push a proposal, he will sign on. With the change to MP C2 effective 1 Apr 11, Bases will no longer be able to do an end run to obtain dogs via local funding and, therefore, it appears the capability will disappear in 4-5 years at most.
