This is Raven my working/sport/house/lawn mowing buddy/ dog. My son and her are joined at the hip. Where he is she is. She was sent back from Iraq because she was to "aggressive" for them biting to many locals.



Some of her working....

Raven is and is just as tuff as any male.
Awesome pictures, Matt! Looks like a great dog.

Just out of curiousity, what did you all do to change out her temperment (assuming it needed to be curbed)...or was it a case of having a bad handler in Iraq?

Not sure if I said this right, just wondering if she showed up in a bad way, and if so, what you all may have done to work through that.
Lucky for me it was just a case of her have bad handlers. She was just as fun loving when she got back as she was when she left. I remember Jerry telling me I should keep her when I got her in and me telling him I didn't need another female. Well I am glad he talked me into it, I wouldn't trade her for anything in the world now.

That is great to hear, glad it all worked out. How often do you all get "reports" on how your dogs are doing (I am assuming you supply MWDs directly into the military or security contractors, right? Sorry for the ignorance...I do not know much about your business and that particular business...I would think the US Military in particular would be pretty keen on grading out the suitability of dogs they buy???)
You would be surprised just how much they don't fully test what they buy.

That is too bad to hear. Wonder what their burn-out rate is for not tracking the quality of their suppliers. Anyway.
