MBTA Unleashes Bomb-Sniffing Dogs

The explosive-sniffing dogs recently began service with the MBTA by way of the Middle East.

 

Three bomb-sniffing dogs were led into service along the MBTA this week.

The Metro’s Boston edition reported Monday the three dogs – Moxie, Shifty and Wire – completed tours of duty in Afghanistan and Iraq, completing weeks of training to get them used to working around civilians.
