Major General Cantwell spends time with Sarbi
After a fourteen month absence in the wilds of Afghanistan, Sarbi the Australian Army Explosive Detection Dog is starting to enjoy a more relaxed lifestyle as she waits out her quarantine time in the United Arab Emirates before her return to Australia. In the first phase of her redeployment back to Australia, Sarbi will need to meet strict quarantine requirements set by Australian Quarantine Inspection Service for all animals entering Australia. This means she will spend six months in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates before her return.
