- Description
- This project is to construct the DoD Military Working Dog (MWD) Hospital, a unique entity, responsible for providing comprehensive medical care for the 600+ MWDs assigned to the MWD training Center (341 TRS) at Lackland AFB. The unit acts as the vet erinary medical authority for evaluation of all candidates entering the DOD Working Dog Program.
