00:00.675 --> 00:03.675
(heavy metal music)

00:09.405 --> 00:11.152
(grunting)

00:11.152 --> 00:11.985
- Oh boy.

00:12.310 --> 00:14.397
^I am senior airman Jordan Fuller,

00:14.397 --> 00:16.252
^military working dog handler,

00:16.252 --> 00:18.297
^802nd security forces quadrant

00:18.297 --> 00:21.501
Rocko, he's the best partner I've ever had.

00:21.501 --> 00:23.603
He's literally my best friend.

00:23.603 --> 00:25.603
He's a dual purpose dog.

00:25.838 --> 00:28.013
He's trained in patrol work,

00:28.013 --> 00:28.846
Heel.

00:28.963 --> 00:30.212
And also detection work.

00:30.212 --> 00:31.045
Good boy.

00:31.169 --> 00:32.002
Good boy.

00:32.002 --> 00:35.218
My dog's average speed is 18 miles an hour.

00:35.218 --> 00:37.500
Not very many humans can run that fast

00:37.500 --> 00:38.883
and if they run that fast,

00:38.883 --> 00:40.776
it's not going to be for long,

00:40.776 --> 00:42.442
especially with my dog behind them.

00:42.442 --> 00:43.275
Get!

00:52.075 --> 00:53.118
(grunting and yelling)

00:53.118 --> 00:54.213
You can see he's,

00:54.213 --> 00:55.152
even just sitting here,

00:55.152 --> 00:57.053
he's constantly looking for something,

00:57.053 --> 00:59.136
some type of hostile act,

00:59.244 --> 01:01.853
something that could possibly hurt me or him.

01:01.853 --> 01:03.141
He's always alert.

01:03.141 --> 01:05.638
The amount of time spent together

01:05.638 --> 01:07.221
is a big key factor

01:07.454 --> 01:10.287
in the reason our bond is so great

01:10.634 --> 01:12.801
versus a human counterpart

01:13.206 --> 01:15.706
that you may work with one day

01:16.013 --> 01:18.930
or two days out of your work cycle.

01:19.308 --> 01:20.704
The bond you build with a dog

01:20.704 --> 01:23.925
that you're working with every single day of that work cycle

01:23.925 --> 01:26.405
is going to be so much greater.

01:26.405 --> 01:27.238
Good boy.

01:27.238 --> 01:28.390
It's a very close bond.

01:28.390 --> 01:30.821
It's something special that's for sure,

01:30.821 --> 01:33.388
almost indescribable, at least to me.

01:33.388 --> 01:34.555
Hut. Good boy.

01:35.781 --> 01:36.614
Good.

01:36.614 --> 01:39.733
I think I got the best job in the air force right now,

01:39.733 --> 01:43.066
to come and work with man's best friend.

01:43.476 --> 01:44.909
I would give my life for him

01:44.909 --> 01:48.159
and I know he would do the same for me.

01:51.095 --> 01:54.178
(high-pitched chirp)
