Military working dogs and LE K-9s face the same ballistic, blast, and trauma risks as their handlers — but a standard human litter is poorly suited to canine anatomy when the dog goes down and needs to move fast.
How do you evacuate an injured working dog quickly and securely?
The K-9 Litter is a species-specific design built for operational canine casualty care. Its defining feature is the leg cutouts, which let the dog rest in a natural orientation with legs through the cutouts rather than folded or constrained — improving security, reducing stress on injured limbs, and giving handlers a more stable carry platform. Six large and four small carry handles enable balanced 1-, 2-, 3-, or 4-person carries depending on team availability and terrain. At 15.3 oz and packed to 5.5 × 10 × 1.75″, it stores in a standard cargo pocket, K-9 handler pouch, or vehicle kit without meaningful weight. The Litter + Straps + Carabiners combo adds carry straps and carabiners for rigging on longer-distance or vehicle-assisted evacuations.
