Mexico's National Guard Trains Chihuahua Comando for Search-and-Rescue Duties
Mexico's National Guard has welcomed Comando, a small Chihuahua weighing around 6-7 kg, as a new canine recruit trained for search-and-rescue operations. Adopted six months ago after his elderly owners could no longer care for him, Comando has become a mascot and public figure, equipped with miniature tactical gear. While his role contrasts with larger dogs like German Shepherds, he has participated in training and public events, symbolizing the human side of the force. There is no official evidence that Comando has impacted criminal activity.
