Dog Health Questions: Military Working Dog Handler?

from a military perspective (more specifically, a Marine perspective), what college degree or professional experience would be related to being selected to become a military working dog handler after application to the course? would someone with a dog training certification or previous experience as a professional dog trainer/handler be at an advantage for selection into this MOS?

I know that I can't enlist to become a handler and I have to become an MP first, then be selected to become a handler. what I wanted to ask was if having a degree or previous experience would help at all during the selection process and give me a greater chance of becoming a handler. thanks.

Nope your previous expierence doesnt come in to affect for selection. Basically you sign into a career field which has 3 or more MOSs in it. Then what job you end up with is like a lottery.
