Tyler Heisey, LPC Ruck & Write Week 2

Even if the outcome feels complicated, what moments from your service still remind you that it mattered, and what part of that experience are you still proud of today?

Answering it in pictures was easier than words.

Working Dog Wednesday.

K9 Husbandry and First Aid starts with knowing and being able to monitor your dog’s vital signs.

K9 medical simulation mannequins are great training tools for developing emergency intervention skills, but they don’t move about or get aggressive.

The majority of working dogs that survive their initial injuries are still conscious and ambulatory.

Treating almost all significant injuries hurts the patient.

If your dog isn’t a big fan of having their pulse or temperature taken, how co-operative do you think they’ll be when something hurts and you’re hurting it more by treating it?

Some dogs are surprisingly compliant and others are not.

Without the option to rapidly sedate them - muzzle, restraint and creativity will be necessary for safety and success.

It’s been a great week so far training with the handlers and dogs of the Georgia State Patrol. I’m not sure K9 Bolt agrees.

Remember, the only difference between a dog thermometer and human thermometer is the taste.

Will your dog let you take their temperature unassisted?

Never above you.
Never below you.
Always beside you.

Never forget.

Spring is the most dangerous time of year for heat injury in dogs.

Yesterday it was 73 degrees with snow still in the canyon. Last week it was in the low to mid 50s.

Heat injury is always in the top three mechanisms of injury for working and high energy dogs with zero sense of self preservation.

Acclimate to significant temperature changes responsibly and intentionally.

Hydration and conditioning are key preventative measures.

Know the early warning signs: shade hunting, “paddle tongue,” and shade hunting.

Implement temperature checks.

Treat before transport. Core temperature will continue to rise during evacuation without intervention.

Cold water, ice packs, moving air.

The risk of rebound hypothermia is minimal and pales in comparison to seizures, organ failure, and coagulopathy.

Trust in me my friend, for I am your comrade.

I will protect you with my last breath.

When all others have left you and the loneliness of night closes in,
I will be at your side.

Together we will conquer all obstacles, and search out those who wish to do harm to others.

All I ask of you is compassion, and the caring touch of your hands.

It is for you that I will unselfishly give my life and spend my nights unrested.

Although our days together may be marked by the passing of the seasons, know that each day by your side is my reward.

Together you and I shall experience a bond only others like us will understand.

I will remain ever silent, ever vigilant, ever loyal, and when you move on in the world remember me with kind words and tales.

For a time we were unbeatable, nothing passed among us undetected.

If we should meet again on another street I will gladly take up your fight,

I am a Military Working Dog and together we are Guardians of the night.
