She was purchased by the Federal Government in November of 2013 and completed her 16 week EDC training in April of 2014.

" Brutus is one of the most fun-loving canines I have ever had the pleasure to work with. Everyone swears he is part human and understands everything you tell him. He has an extensive travel history as he was allowed to go with me while I was in Georgia for the military. That was a 6-month trip that took him to just about every state in on the east coast. He has traveled via commercial aircraft as well as military. He is the kind of dog that puts a smile on everyone’s face and eats your whole lunch if you let him. He has an extensive narcotic seizure history during his time as a working canine valued in the millions of dollars. No doubt he has saved lives by using his nose for the good. His favorite activities now include floating on a raft in the pool, hunting field mice and sunbathing on warm days. While popcorn is his all-time favorite, he is a lab and will not turn down any treat. He has brought me more joy than I could ever put into words!"

My name is Buddy! I am a retired military working dog based Fort Myer. I served 10 years in the US Army. I was on two deployments, first in Iraq for 10 months in 2018, and then in Egypt for 1 year in 2021. I have worked with some pretty cool people and cool missions, including Secret Service on POTUS and VPOTUS missions, and providing force protection on Fort Myer. My favorite treats are Milk Bones, any cheese that exists, and peanut butter. My dad takes me on a lot of trips on our down time, like camping on Shenandoah, retirement trips to the zoo (the seal pup doesn’t like me there), and plays fetch with me everyday at the dog park. My most absolutely favorite activity is to sleep, I’m quite a lazy man now (professional sleeper some might say). I spend most of my days with my giant Kong, and a dinosaur plush toy named Timmy (who is missing and arm and a leg at the moment). But I love retirement life, and love my new home with my dad and all his friends.
