On June 27, 2016, the Office of the Inspector General of the Department of Defense announced an assessment of the Tactical Explosive Detection Dog (TEDD) Program Adoption Process.
“The objective of this assessment is to determine if the Department of the Army complied with appropriate criteria for the disposition of Tactical Explosive Detection Dogs (TEDDs) at the time disposition of the TEDDs occurred, if the Department of the Air Force conducted required oversight of the disposition plan for TEDDs, and if those responsible for the disposition of the TEDDs violated rules, regulations, contracts, or statutes in effect at the time of the disposition. This assessment is being performed in response to a congressional request.”
