Army Sgt. Garrett Grenier, a dog handler, and Army Staff Sgt. Drake, a mine-detection dog, enjoy a game of fetch before training at Bagram Air Field, Afghanistan, Jan. 8, 2013. Grenier and Drake are both attached to the 49th Engineer Detachment (mine dogs) and train daily pending weather and mission tempo. The handlers warm up their dogs with games of tug-of-war and fetch to get them into the training mindset. ( Army photo by Sgt.
