(WRIC/ABC) — Are you looking for a new furry friend? The Transportation Security Administration has some dogs in mind.
The agency is adopting out bomb-sniffing dogs who’ve either retired or flunked out of the explosive detection program. Bomb-sniffing isn’t for everyone!
The pups are typically German short-haired pointers, German shepherds, Labs and Belgian malinois. They range in age from about 2 to 10-years-old.
The TSA hounds tend to be very active, according to the agency, because they were selected for their elevated “drive.”
“Some are well-trained, others are not,” the TSA acknowledged.
Though families will have to travel to get the dogs from San Antonio, Texas, on their own dime, there’s no charge for adopting one of the TSA dogs.
