Rejs is a Belgian Malinois currently serving with the Latvian army’s Special Operations Forces. During missions, as a combat assault canine, Rejs helps Latvian commandos by sniffing out explosive traps, chasing down high-value targets and using his incredible speed and agility to get the jump on foes.
Rejs requires a lot of kit to do his job, which is carried by his handler, a Latvian Special Forces operator. In this piece, we get to see the items the dog handling team carries in their backpack – from a dog bowl to a muzzle.
