El Ejército Soviético entrenó alrededor de 50.000 perros antes de y durante los inicios de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Los perros demostraron ser especialmente valiosos durante los severos inviernos rusos, cuando ellos localizaban y llevaban también a los soldados de combate con trineos. [...] El uso de grandes perros dio a la Bahnschutz (Policía Ferroviaria) un aumento de la eficacia durante las patrullas de las estaciones, en las salas de espera de las mismas y a lo largo de la vía férrea. Ya en 1923, el Reichsbahn empezó un programa sistemático de instrucción para adiestradores de perros así como para los mismos perros. 4, record 4, Spanish, - gu%C3%ADa%20canino
