Warhound Secures $200M to Build Domestic Supply of Military Dogs
What happened
Warhound, a defense-tech startup co-founded by Ben Lamm and Palmer Luckey, secured $200 million in funding. The company aims to rebuild the domestic supply of military working dogs using cloning, genetic screening, and battlefield technology. Warhound plans to license biogenetics technology from Colossal Biosciences to achieve this goal.

Why it matters
The initiative seeks to reduce U.S. reliance on European imports, which currently supply over 80% of U.S. military working dogs. Warhound argues that the current supply is dwindling due to international competition and a growing rift between America and the European Union.
