Currently, I am serving in a SFG as a CBRN. Love the unit, not the MOS. Recently I've taken interest in reclassing to a 31K Dog Handler. However, I do not want to get throw into some MP unit stuck doing gate gaurd rather than actually do things revolving dogs. Is it possible to renlist for a MOS AND unit? People have told me before you can't reenlist to be in a unit but I know that isn't true, I know multiple people that have reenlisted to be in group or other units. I would rather work in group because I feel like SOF unit work is more meaningful. This is not to shit on anyone elses work place, but from my personal experiences this is how I feel.

I am unsure about your concern for gate guard as an MP. I have not seen an installation in forever that is not contracted to Federal Police. Admittedly I have not been to every installation in the Army, but many. The MPs have a mission in Garrison and combat as all other MOS’s. Getting a new MOS and duty station would be challenging to say the least. You can try. Thank you for your service.

Like MSG said, here at Bragg we got MPs doing it, and when I was at Carson they did too and still do.

You have a slim chance reclassing to 31K and an even slimmer chance picking a duty station if if you get the mos. you can always try though.
As far as their duties, K9 doesn’t “work gates.” They may do RAMs (random antiterrorism measures) at gates every once in a while, but that’s by no means their mission. K-9 has their own detachments now and are pulled here are there for deployments. Sometimes conventional and sometimes with SOF units.

Not to sound defensive, but I don't get why they say theres a slim chance at getting 31K. Maybe its just me, but everytime I've gone to talk to my retention they have always had slots.

There is a slim chance you could get MOS and Duty Station, but it usually is not not for high requirement fill units like SFABs and Special Ops Command. It’s a hit and miss system that relies more on demand than supply and usually it’s very restrictive...but not impossible. Work with your career counselor and ID a best possible course for your future.
