K9 Spotlight: Jake Stanley and Axel

Jake Stanley & Axel

@dogsandjake

Dog Handler // Retired Military Working Dog

"Military Working Dog Axel N677 was my first MWD when I was a handler in the US Navy. We had great times working together and I was thrilled to adopt him when he retired.

I am thankful to continue spending my days with him. After I left the navy, I was given the opportunity to attend the 2018 Thanksgiving day Detroit Lions football game with Axel, as a representative of the Military Working Dog Team Support Association. Of course I didn't pass up the once in a lifetime experience, and without question I had Axel rocking Ray Allen gear!

Everything from Ray Allen has served us well on the job and in his retirement. MWD Axel was the best dog in the world, a great working dog and a great family companion, as well. He passed away very suddenly on June 18th, 2020, but his memory will live on forever."

Their Gear: "We’ve used Ray Allen collars, harnesses, leashes, protection equipment, you name it! None of the equipment has ever failed on us, it is always ready for the rigors of the field."
