Wasn't there a story a few years back where something similar happened but they wouldn't allow the dog to come home?
I can't remember the details, but OT was raging about it. Good to see this going well. |

I don't think that was a bomb sniffing dog.. it was a wild dog that they took in.

^ It was a similar story except the dog was an Iraqi dog, not a USMC trained dog.
Great story, glad the family can get a little closure from adopting their sons war companion. |

The Military does have a program to find homes for retired military bomb sniffing dogs. Normally though, they are too old or have suffered some kind of injury leading to their retirement. It's not unheard of though for the military to make an exception. It's good PR plus, it makes everyone happy. |

And you can all send letters of appreciation to Congressman Walter B. Jones of Farmville North Carolina for getting this thing fixed. Mr. Jones actually went to the office of the CMC and got this thing done back when with Lex and Dustin Lee.
I know the man personally and it took some serious balls to do what he did. Last edited by Obnoxio; 02-03-2011 at 03:49 PM. |
