MARINE CORPS BASE HAWAII - Christopher LeFebvre, of Kaneohe, a civilian dog handler encased in a “marshmallow suit,” confronts two military working dogs, a Belgian Malinois and a black German shepherd, which gripped his arms despite his twirling around and around like a carousel, in a K-9 unit demonstration for children at Mokapu Elementary School, April 5, 2013. Sgt. Daniel Pierce (right), chief trainer for the K-9 unit at the Provost Marshal’s Office here, served as the “ringmaster” for a performance showcasing the dogs’ training “to bite and hold” a suspect. Pierce said the dogs will bite anything that moves, whether it is an arm, a leg or someone’s back.
