Currently, millions of Americans are saddened by the news of seven of our military members lost in the war taking place in Iran. It has made many people in the country wonder what they can do to step up and show their support for the troops, regardless of how they feel about the politics of it all. Paws of War is providing people a solid way to help show their support for the troops and help some rescued puppies at the same time, making it a win-win solution.
“We have the utmost respect for our troops, and are committed to doing everything we can to help with this situation,” said Derek Cartwright, U.S. Army veteran and international logistics coordinator at Paws of War. “I know there are many people who also want to help show their support and helping to save these pups is a great way to do it.”
The oil pit pups, as they are being called, were saved by U.S. soldiers and a Navy veteran who were all overseas. When they heard the frantic yelps of nearby puppies, they ran to the scene only to find that two puppies from the litter had fallen into the oil pit that is used for vehicle maintenance and were drowning. The group wasted no time in stepping up to help save the two, and took them and their mother and siblings to a safe place where they can give them the care they desperately needed.
Being left behind in the Middle East, the group of dogs is sure to be severely injured or killed. The group reached out to Paws of War to help ensure that doesn’t happen, asking them to help get them all relocated to America, where they can live out the rest of their lives in comfort and safety with the people who rescued and bonded with them. As a Paws of War in-progress War-Torn rescue, the plans are already being laid out to ensure this mission is a success, but the one thing that it still needs is support from the public.
Missions such as these are costly with a lot of red tape and fees, and they can use all the donations they can get to ensure all conditions are met along the way. There are five puppies that have been rescued, along with their mother, and there are four military heroes who are waiting to adopt them. Members of the public can feel good knowing they are showing their support to our troops by getting involved, as well as helping to rescue some innocent puppies from the harsh realities of the Middle East. The War-Torn Pups & Cats program reunites military personnel with the animals they rescue and bond with while serving overseas. It’s a program that is provided with no cost to the soldiers.
“Let’s all pull together and to see this mission through,” said Cartwright. “We want our soldiers and veterans to know we support them, their efforts, and all the sacrifices they make for our nation every day.”
