Navy SEAL Dogs Have Titanium Fangs?!
When President Obama visits the Navy SEAL team that killed Osama bin Laden on Friday, I hope he brings a tasty treat for the smallest, softest, and sharpest member of the team: a military bomb-sniffing dog (probably a German Shepard) who participated in the raid. Oh, and by the way, these have insanely-sharp titanium teeth. TITANIUM TEETH!
The Daily reports that “their razor-sharp teeth are made from titanium, their body armor can withstand clouds of hot shrapnel, and they’ve been trained to wear oxygen masks for high-altitude skydives into enemy territory.
Say hello to the U.S. military’s dogs of war – including the bomb-sniffer that joined the hit squard of 79 Navy SEALs who took out Osama bin Laden in a compound in Pakistan last weekend.
Alex Dunbar, a former Marine who trains U.S. military dogs at his Close Quarter Balltle K9 school in Colorado, told The Daily that the canine commando was most like a German Sheperd.
“They are trained in special building searches and working with night-vision cameras,” he said of the special training a Navy SEAL dog would receive at his canine military academy. They are able to differentiate between a hostage and a terrorist. They are trained in helo-cast from moving helicopter into water. They can work in multiple teams and take down multiple targets.”
DOD says there are 2,700 military working dogs on duty, almost 1,000 more than before 9/11. 450 dogs are deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan.
Titanium teeth!

Did you hear the part about TITANIUM TEETH. Okay, I’m done.
(I’m just saying, titanium teeth are pretty badass, and… okay, I’m done again)
TITANIUM TEETH!
Atta boy, sic ‘em — great idea guys.
Actually read Wired, Titanium teeth would be a detriment not an improvement as they would be more likely to fall out. This is a false story. The only reason they would have titanium teeth is if they had lost their original teeth…Your in far more trouble from the SEAL behind the dog than his teeth.
