Soldiers comfort puppy in Afghanistan
We love our military, and fully support them helping to rescue animals overseas. This story was sent to us by the mother of a marine who adopted an abandoned puppy, Ally, from Afghanistan in 2009. Our pilots flew Ally from NY to KY when Marine Cpl. Lemmons adopted her upon returning home to a hero’s welcome. For more info on that story click here

KANDAHAR, AFGHANISTAN – FEBRUARY 25: SGT Kevin Ingram from Wheeling, West Virginia with the U.S. Army’s 4th squadron 2d Cavalry Regiment comforts a puppy that had its ears cut off while visiting an Afghan National Police (ANP) outpost that was once home to Osama Bin Laden during a patrol on February 25, 2014 near Kandahar, Afghanistan. Ears are often removed from puppies to prepare them to become fighting dogs. Fourth squadron 2d Cavalry Regiment is responsible for defending Kandahar Airfield against rocket attacks from insurgents.
