If your name's Fido, Rover, or Bowser, Uncle Sam wants you. That's what the Pentagon's latest recruitment flyers say. Perched atop a sign that reads ''Uncle Sam Wants Your Dog,'' a cartoon mutt complete with beret and sergeant's stripes beckons dog owners to give their pets a rewarding career in military guard duty and law enforcement. In exchange, the Defense Department will give dog owners $ 250.
