Today there is no better day than to salute the four-leggers that help our service men and women as they defend our country.
Today we salute the Dogs of War.
From Lethargos, who accompanied soldiers in the war waged by the Ephesians against Magnesia in the 17th century...
...to brave Sallie, who fought along side troops in the 11th Pennsylvania Infantry during the civil war...
...to Cairo, a member of the United States Navy SEAL team who stormed and infiltrated the hideout of Osama Bin Laden in Abbottabod, Pakistan, consequently killing the founder of the al-Qaeda organization, reportedly responsible for the September 11 attacks on the United States and numerous other mass-casualty attacks against civilian and military targets...
...to all the brave K9s currently serving hand in paw with our military personnel all over the world to comfort, detect, storm, alert, warn, message, sniff out, search, rescue and save thousands of human and other canine lives day in and day out...
...we salute you!
Take a moment today to learn more about how dogs are helping keep our country safer and how you can help them in their time of need through donations (here and here for care packages and cooling vests) or adoption once their military duty is fulfilled.
