The book takes readers behind the scenes into the Defense Department’s Puppy Breeding maternity suite where the pups are born and the loving foster homes where they are raised.

Reviews

"Warrior Pups is an important and a fun read filled with great dogs and interesting people. It takes you places you otherwise cannot go--behind the scenes at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, where America's Military Working Dogs are bred, nurtured and trained. There is a lot of love for the dogs and the brave handlers who must walk behind them into battle. You feel that love in the pages of this book.

John C. Burnam, author of A Soldier’s Best Friend

"If you love dogs, and in particular, American Military Working Dogs and their heroic Handlers, Warrior Pups is the perfect book ... on how cute puppies become powerful guardians of our troops in the war against terror." --Dennis L. Fritz, Chief Master Sergeant, (USAF-Retired)
