    U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Michael Alcala (right), 902d Security Forces Squadron military working dog trainer, bandages a simulated wound on a canine medical training manikin as Senior Airman Taylor Bryant, 902d SFS MWD handler, passes him supplies during a pre-deployment emergency veterinary care skills training at Joint Base San Antonio-Fort Sam Houston, Texas, Oct. 15, 2024. Animal care specialists tested the MWD handlers with a series of possible deployment scenarios, focusing on quick and effective medical treatment of injured MWDs with limited assistance and supplies. The training manikin was electronically controlled, providing handlers with a realistic experience checking vitals, such as pulse and respiration, and responding to whining and barking sounds.
