Hard to Kill: Green Beret, K9 Ops, Cancer Survivor - Ian Donovan

In this episode, we sit down with Ian Donovan, a 16-year U.S. Army Special Forces veteran and Green Beret who spent years fighting ISIS in Iraq and Syria. As a Special Forces K9 handler, trainer, and kennel master, Ian shares rare insights into elite military life, combat operations, and working alongside dogs in some of the most dangerous environments on earth. After surviving a near-fatal car crash in 2022 and being diagnosed with leukemia in 2024, Ian’s story takes an unexpected turn that proves what it truly means to be resilient. From growing up in rural Louisiana to choosing the Green Beret path and enduring experiences few ever speak about publicly, this conversation dives deep into mindset, survival, brotherhood, and what it really takes to keep going when everything is stacked against you. Many of these stories have never been shared anywhere else. ---- This link will give you access to all of our socials, online courses, training tips and equipment recommendations 👉 https://linktr.ee/garretwing 💥 Fuel your dog with the only brand we trust Kinetic Performance Dog Food: Built For The Best! https://kineticdogfood.com/ 👉 Follow for more Content: Instagram:   / kineticdogfood   Facebook:   / kineticdogfood   YouTube:    / @kineticdogfood   TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@kineticdogfoo... #GreenBeret #SpecialForces #WarStories #K9Operator #ArmyVeteran
