Hundreds of army dogs thought too fierce to be pets are put down after military service

Hundreds of brave dogs who have protected soldiers on the front line have been put down after serving in the army, it has been revealed.

The loyal animals are often seen as too fierce to be retrained as pets later, with 807 destroyed in the past decade.

The number has soared thanks to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, according to figures from the Ministry of Defence.
