Chief Hutch, a Belgian Malinois combat assault dog trained to detect explosives and other dangerous materials, recently retired from SEAL Team Four. Hutch’s career spanned five years and he deployed twice to support missions in Africa. Hutch’s retirement also reminds us that we are concluding the “Dog Days” of summer which, according to the Farmer’s Almanac, ends today and coincides with the rising of the “Dog Star” known more formally as Sirius.
