Oh there is tons of beneficial trade off like drug sniffer, hunting, watch dog, etc, etc, but it comes at the expanse of room and mission imperative. Sure the workhorse of the project is the V-150 and in a pinch you could squeeze a dog inside but now things are tighter and that's just the dog, not its own supplies which also have to be packed and stored. And Dog Kibble takes up a lot more room than MRE's. I see Dogs being a replacement for a man and his gear or stored for use in a dedicated Bolt Hole until needed. That or expand on a basic teams size and go from one vehicle to two vehicles so the extra gear and the dog have room or go with a larger initial vehicle. Doing this though expands the initial layout of the Bolt Hole making them harder to hide and more expansive to hide.
