BARKSDALE AIR FORCE BASE, La – Senior Airman Stephen Lammers assist Dr. Darrin Olson in wrapping up Military Working Dog Febe’s tail after performing a partial amputation March 26. During the procedure, Airman Lammers was able to apply his technical training by helping to check Febe’s vitals and temperature. On average, dog handlers receive 40 hours of hands-on medical training after arriving on station. This training enables them to perform minor procedures or stabilize the dog until they are able to get more advanced medical care. Airman Lammers and Febe are assigned to the 2d Security Forces Squadron K-9 unit here. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Terri Barriere)
