On March 13, 1942, the Quartermaster Corps of the U.S. Army began training dogs for the newly established War Dog Program, or K-9 Corps.

When America entered World War II in December 1941, the American Kennel Club and a group called Dogs for Defense began a movement to mobilize dog owners to donate healthy and capable animals to the Quartermaster Corps of the U.S. Army. Training began in March 1942, and that fall, the QMC was given the task of training dogs for the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard as well.

Dogs were trained in basic obedience before they were sent through one of four specialized programs to prepare them for work as sentries, scouts or patrols, messengers, and for mine-detection. In active combat duty, scout dogs proved especially essential by alerting patrols to the approach of the enemy and preventing surprise attacks. Today, dogs still play a vital role in military operations around the world.
