What’s in the kit of a Latvian special forces’ dog handling team? Rejs is a Belgian Malinois currently serving with the Latvian army’s Special Operations Forces.
During missions, as a combat assault canine, Rejs helps Latvian commandos by sniffing out explosive traps, chasing down high-value targets and using his incredible speed and agility to get the jump on foes.
