I always wondered whether this was a war story or the truth. I always wandered how a female officer could pee at the dog through the gate of the kennel.
It is funny though, but the peeing stories seem to circulate.

There are many stories about training, training techniques etc that are more myth that truth. One never knows where stories like that start. It's like the one about drug dogs being addicted so they will look harder for drugs. I'd bet a dollar to a donut I'm asked that question at least once during every demo we've ever conducted. I think sometimes, trainers, such as myself, perpetuate myths like this because, at the time, it's funny.
