They are? My dogs have all come though my stepdad who was a dog handler, when they were end of service, they came house dogs. And pretty much every other dog handler that I've met had several dogs, ones that had come from retirement, as well as their working ones.
My old dog was just like this. He was awesome.
Prince Williams guard dogs are an example. They often go to live with their handlers but if a home with a competent person cannot be found they will be euthanized due to their behaviour possibly being difficult.
I do see the idea of pensions is catching on here too though http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...00-help-pay-medical-bills-retire-service.html
