Show Notes

In this episode, we share the extraordinary story of Jazz, a military working dog handler from Cornwall whose lifelong love of working dogs inspired her to take on a unique and critical role in the army. Deployed to Afghanistan, Jazz and her canine partners operated on the front lines, searching vehicles detecting improvised explosive devices and safeguarding their unit in one of the most perilous environments imaginable.

We trace Jazz’s journey from her home in Cornwall through rigorous military training to the battlefields of Afghanistan, uncovering the unbreakable bond between handler and dog and the bravery it takes to face danger every day. Then after an IED attack tragically ended her military career, Jazz's enduring passion for working dogs continues as she leads efforts in training the next generation of canine partnerships. This is a story of trust, courage and resilience in the face of immense adversity.
