In the London Times, here

"...His quest for redemption led him to sign up as a government contractor in Afghanistan, where he worked with a sniffer dog, searching for explosive devices and weapons. His dog Zomie died with him when his military convoy hit a roadside bomb.,,,At the height of the insurgency that year, Cardona tried to return to Iraq. “He wanted to prove that he had nothing to hide,” "

[An Iraqi detainee appears to be restrained after having suffered injuries to both legs at Abu Ghraib. It is unclear whether his injuries were from dog bites. ]
