An interesting article was published on February 10, 2015 on robotic designs by Elizabeth Palermo. This article along with a video was released the same time that Spot was unveiled for mass media outlets. Spot is the newest robotic dog that can perform in rough terrains. The firm that design the robot is Boston Dynamics, a company owned by Google. This recent invention will assist with Department of Defense engagements. Spot could be a rescue dog in wooded areas or high altitudes, where it is difficult for humans to maneuver. I believe the most likely assignments for Spot will be in active combat.
