U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Rachel Hyde, 39th Security Forces Squadron military working dog handler, practices with MWD Brix on the MWD obstacle training course, Aug. 5, 2020, at Incirlik Air Base, Turkey. Excessive heat or cold conditions can put strain or even injure MWD’s, so handlers prioritize their care and work with leadership to ensure their readiness. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt.
