Pigeons Carried by Dogs to Help in Training
extracted text
Carrier pigeons acquire the ability to return home largely through training, and one of the methods used in the army is to send the pigeon to soldiers stationed at distant points where the birds are released and allowed to fly back. Dogs have been taught to carry the pigeons in one army unit. A harness with side pockets is unit strapped about the dog, the pigeon placed in one of the pockets and taken safely and comfortably to its destination.
