Already shot down mate. Biggest problem is that devs don't want to model/animate dogs. You can make them some AT dogs and im sure they will be happy to add

Voop hit the nail on the head. Been suggested so many times its not even funny... for god sake, killing humans is alright but please think of the puppies :(

On another note... it would be fun to have and would be easy to model, but we have no idea (yet) how to create custom infantry animations.

For a second when I read the title about dogs I was immediately thinking Call of Duty World at War but I see it's about AT dogs. You do know the russians did actually train AT dogs but they failed because sometimes they would get scared and run back to their soldiers.
I just love the smell of burning tanks in the morning

I wonder what would happen if the dog returned when the charge was already on...

They hid food under T-34's for training so the dogs would always look under Tanks for food... but when put into practise, the Dogs would run towards the T-34's instead of the Axis tanks because that's where they thought the food was  ;D

That must of been scary, and yet very fun to watch the reactions of the infantry around the dog

AT dogs worked about as well as replacing Navy SEALS with actual seals.

 Well there's a recent movie about US guys being trained
 to develop psychic powers to kill at a distance. Namely turning
 out that they hypnotise goats and sheep...
 
 True story :p

 Yea, well done in COD :) / MrScruffs would know how to
 animate infantry. Or, if someone could, he would have been
 the one to figure it out :( (Just ask Relic, damn you) Lol.

 Hmm...
 
 Yea, been mentionned WAY too often. Would be interesting
 to implement! :) Way I suggest is PE AT mine punch, from
 a dog. Make a trainer + Dog. Dog reacts as per proximity
 to tank, like an uncontrolled goliath (fragile, though) and
 can be re-inforced if trainer survives. This way, if player
 isn't careful, it'd blow up his OWN tanks :)

 Problem would be to make thus squads with different
 members :( ALL-Dog squads might be ok?

 ... Maxim, dogs... CMON!!! FULL PRIORITY! HOW TO ANIM
 !!!! :D (I recall animating tanks was a problem, no?) :)

 - Well, apparently it's a true story. Wouldn't know, myself.
 - Living on the moon would be very nice :) Mars, as well,
 but not there just yet :)
 
 There's a nazi on the moon movie in the works :)
