The service dog Maiko, a German Shepherd, was transferred to the Canine Training Center of the State Border Guard Service with the support of the Andrii Piven Foundation.

"Maiko is a very active and playful dog, he's only a year and a half old. He's agile, shows interest in everything new, and he's incredibly friendly, so he quickly bonded with his new handler," shared the dog handler.

Maiko will be trained in search and rescue operations and will assist border guards in defending the state borders of Ukraine.

The border guards sincerely thank for the assistance and support!

Together to Victory!
