Cutter, a military working dog, sniffs for mock explosives along a road while his handler, Cpl. Justin B. Trujillo, directs him July 2 in the Central Training Area. MWDs and their handlers executed improvised explosive device detection training, where the dog teams patrolled through areas with odors typically associated with IEDs. The goal in the training was to make it through the lane without missing any of the indicators. Trujillo is a Los Alamos, New Mexico, native and military working dog handler with 3rd Law Enforcement Battalion, III Marine Expeditionary Force Headquarters Group, III MEF. Cutter is a specialized search dog with the battalion. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Drew Tech/Released)
