Dogs serving our Country

I want to thank all of the men and women who have put their lives on the line serving our country. There aren't a lot of people who willingly volunteer their time, energy and yes, sometimes their life to protect our country. Thank you from all of us. Here's an article on CNN that provides more insight into Memorial Day, certainly much more eloquently than I can. And I would highly recommend this CNN article profiling Karl Malantes and his struggles (which most soldiers will face) after returning home. Most people never think that once you participate in a war, it never ends.

I'd also like to take a moment and say thanks to all of the dogs and their handlers out there that also serve their country. Dogs, by and large, go unnoticed in the war against terrorism but rest assured they do their part and many have given their lives doing so. Take a moment and visit http://www.uswardogs.org/id2.html
And the dog training secret.com site is really awesome as well detailing the contributions that dogs make and have made.
There are so many special dogs and trainers out there that deserve our thanks and recognition for the difficult work they perform on our behalf.

Thank you again for serving our country. Stay healthy and happy and keep wagging everyone!
