"Trident K9 Warriors gave readers an inside look at the SEAL teams' elite K9 warriors--who they are, how they are trained, and the extreme missions they undertake to save lives. From detecting explosives to eliminating the bad guys, these powerful dogs are also some of the smartest and highest skilled working animals on the planet. Mike Ritland's job is to train them.This special edition re-telling presents the dramatic tale of how Ritland discovered his passion and grew up to become the trainer of the nation's most elite military working dogs.

Prologue - Northeast Afghanistan, 2007 - The tense silence inside the airborne MH-60 Seahawk helicopter was broken only by the sound of the aircraft's rotors and blades beating like a quickened pulse.
Chapter 1 - Southeastern California, 2010 - The dog lay in the shade of a palm tree, his head up and ears at attention. He was scanning the desert scrubland, vigilant, the muscles beneath the heavy fur of his flanks taut and ready.
