Description

The story of K-9 Marine hero Lucca, a decorated and highly skilled military working dog, and the handlers who fought alongside her through two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. A Specialized Search Dog, Lucca belonged to an elite group trained to work off-leash at long distances from their handlers. She served alongside both Special Forces and regular infantry, and became so sought-after that platoons frequently requested her by name.
