What is the Army MOS for a K9 handler?

• A. 25B
• B. 11B
• C. 31K
• D. 31X

Answer: (C)

The concept being tested is recognizing the specific Army Military Occupational Specialty for a dog-handling role in the Military Police. A K9 handler is the Military Working Dog Handler, a Military Police specialty dedicated to training, handling, and deploying police dogs for patrol, detection, and security tasks. This assignment comes after completing the Military Working Dog School and joining an MP unit, where the handler works directly with a trained canine partner.

The other options correspond to different Army career paths: one is infantry, focused on combat roles; another is an IT specialist, working with information systems; and another represents the MP entry path that leads to a different MP MOS after training rather than the K9-specific track. So the K9 handler designation within Military Police is the correct fit.
