Military Vets & Their Service Dogs

Monday's NY Times ran a great story about US war veterans assisted by service dogs. Read Veterans Helped by Healing Paws, a good read about the physical and emotional service these dogs contribute, and our good soldiers that recognize the strengths of such partnerships.

Want to read more about military and working dogs? Check out this great blog, K9 Pride.
