UPDATE FROM MICHELLE FISHER 8/2015:
I just wanted to post a quick update. Jax is doing really well. Him and our son have quite the bond which makes me so happy. He has lost all his puppy fur so he looks completely different. He's a very happy and energetic dog and we couldn't be happier that he's here with us.
ORIGINAL STORY:
PAWsitive Channel and the SPCA International’s program Operation Baghdad Pups:Worldwide (OBP) team up to film the reunion of Sgt. Jacob Fisher and his dog. Fisher had recently arrived home from his seven-month deployment from Afghanistan, his 3rd tour to the Middle East. Sgt. Jacob waited nearly three months for the moment he would see Jax again. This reunion took place on April 24, 2015.
Sgt. Jacob is on active-duty, a hero who continues to protect our freedoms and our lives. When he found Jax, only a puppy at the time, he knew he couldn’t leave him to fend for himself in the harsh and potentially dangerous streets of Bagram, Afghanistan. He had to save one more life before going home - and he did.

HE IS GORGEOUS. THANK YOU FOR SAVING HIM
There's a powerful medicine for soldiers coming home bearing the scars of war. That medicine has a loving heart, four paws and a wet nose.
mightymissk my dog's nose isn't wet.... does he hate me?
yes, because you are stupid!
i know, can you imagine seeing ugly things, being scared, having missiles aimed where you live, having people boss you around, and then being away from your family???? a dog/puppy/kitty/ whatever to snuggle with every night-wow, there is no pill that can do that. beautiful!
mightymissk Marine, not soldier.
Well said.
Thank you for your service, thank you for rescuing this puppy and thank you for being a good dad
I agree
Unless you own an oil or weapons company, why would you thank him for his service?
Sarah Rosered your an idiot shut up
Roland.scullin screw you pal
Scott Ratliff why is she an idiot? Dont get it.
Thankyou for your service?
If this is the sort of guy the US military is sending o/s they can be very proud. This is a quality person.
If this is the sort of compassion and honour he brings to his service then he should be thanked for it.
Thankyou for your service Sir.
This is the sort of man that should be representung the US then having lots of kids when he gets home.
What an example for his son to follow. Great stuff.
Thank you for what you’ve done for all of us. I’m so happy Jax is finally home with you. I pray the other pups also found good homes.🙏🏻🇺🇸
Amen ☁️🎺👼💒🙏🌹✨
A great man, a wonderful, loving family and a very lucky dog.

Michelle Fisher Thank you for the update, Michelle! Jax has the perfect family!
+Michelle Fisher As a fellow Marine who served in peacetime (90-98), I'm always happy to see stories like this that enrich the lives of the guys who've had to endure so much during these trying times of instability in the middle east. I have so much respect for you SGT. Fisher! Also as a fellow K9 lover (I bought a truck in Texas last year and got a 'parking lot' boxer/pitt mix for $20 - best money I've ever spent), I appreciate your desire to give Jax a forever family! It's also nice to see your family on board with the idea. I wish you and yours a long, happy life together...Thank You! Season's Greetings to you and yours! I realize that My response is directed to SGT. Jacobs through you Michelle, so thank you for being my 'bridge' to him! SEMPER FI!!!
thank u for sharing
Yay!!
+PAWsitive What happened to the other puppy with Jax & the mother dog?
im crying so hard.jack was saved and so was the marine.i wish more people would do this.
Donna Boyd we all need to be loved , just as much for peoples as for doggies So special and precious.
Jax
my dad went to Afghanistan in 2012. When he came home my 11 year old dog ( who was nine then) jumped onto his lap and licked him so much that my dad felt like he was having a shower. BTW we rescued him after been abused
+Grace Austin so sweet!
:)
Omg same but with a nine week old puppy and a eight month old pug
+Grace Austin people who rescue animals are the best kind of souls ;)
your dad is my hero! seriously not knocking anyone who brings a puppy home from a 3rd world country, BUT for your dad to have saved an older animal...that is just plain heroic! kiss your dad from me....love to you all from over here in tx! xoxoxo
I luv Jax! May he live long in peace, love and happiness..🐶🐶🐶❣❣❣
I know how much a dog can mean to someone who is alone and missing home. My little buddy Dany was with me for almost 15 years. He got sick and I had to say goodbye to him 5 days later. I cried for three days then realized I was crying for me so I stopped. But I miss him every day, it's been just over three years now and I was truly blessed to have him in my life, he will always be in my heart. Dogs are a gift from God.
We agree. Thank you for sharing.
So sorry about little Dany.
Yes they are a gift from God
Sorry for your loss ❣It's painful to go through this process... It took me 20 years before I got another dog and I still have his picture on my fridge... He has a special place in my heart and always will.
After all the upsetting things I read about animals, it makes me happy to know you Danny had a happy life for 15 years and was so well loved. Don't know if this helps.
This made me cry tears of happiness! So glad Jax is finally home with his family. Our military give so much to defend and protect this great nation. Uniting a pup with a fellow Marine is a great honor.

That is why I love animals they keep you hanging on
Great, just great! Great people, great sweet 🐕...great story! Thank God that are still people like this! God bless!
Watching you hold your son made me think how great it is when you have a father at home and a wonderful wife. You're a damn good Marine
Thank you wonderful Marine for loving this dog !!
Such a beautiful story! I’m so glad to hear this pup 🐕got reunited with his buddy! 🥰
This man has such a beautiful affectionate nature.
The dog looked like he was crying because he was so happy and it made me cry 😭
I'm so glad the little guy made it here too.
The loyalty and unconditional love dogs give us is sometimes all we need in life
I will never get tired of these types of stories and feel so blessed to be in a country that cares not just about other human's but all living things! God Bless you all!
Thank you SPCA for this program & blessing our soldiers!!!
Poor Little chap looked so anxious and nervous and intimidated and frightened! It would be nice to see a later shot where he realizes he is safe and happy! :-)
There is a link to a Facebook page, at the top of the comment section. I wondered too. Lovely shots of a very happy dog.
What a beautiful baby, thank you for your service, God bless you, your family and Jax!! 😆💗🌷
Dogs and cats that have been brought home from shelters never forget that it was you who saved them. They remember, somehow, someway ...
With their hearts.
With their hipocampus
@@foopo5004 I'll take your word for it, foopo. I like your avatar- thingy. Looks like mine, but different.

You can see the dog is unsure (look at the eyes)& then he warms up& you can see the dog realizes he is going to his forever home and the beginning of relaxing
Too sweet. Dogs R love.
I love story's like this awesome and welcoming come and ty for your service
sir thank you for looking out for the dog ,, and thank you for your service, , and loving hart ,, bless you and you family, thank you from England,
Happy happy, all good news. Thank you for your service to our country!
He was something "normal" in an "abnormal" world you were in temporarily! That young pup traveled far and long hours to "come home" to the one who cared and still cares! May he be a treasured member of your lovely family! TY for your service and Jax's too--just doing for you what dogs do best for us-- be a type of sanity! Blessings!
Wow, I had no idea of SPCA and all they were doing! I can imagine how much having a pup around while away from home, helped you, and then to be able to have a part of that experience back with you state side,...wow. Your son seems to really love him too. What a wonderful thing, wonderful story.
he deserves that doggo and im glad he got to keep him
Afghanistan soldier myself. Truly appreciate this story
Thank you for your service! You are the real hero.
Wow! You’re a wonderful person! So happy for Jax to have you and your family. God bless all of you
So wonderful for that lucky dog who's been through so much, as all the rest of them have too...I hope all those dogs were spoken for by someone good and brought home too. I also wonder what the military does with those trapped wild animals on the bases...hope they turn them loose elsewhere, not kill them. Our wars aren't their faults. Thanks for sharing this great homecoming and reunion.
beautiful puppy and lovely family, so happy for you all! But it brakes my heart to think of the other dogs and puppies left behind
***** a l l of them?
They were adopted. :)
However, there is a rule that you are only allowed to bring one dog home.
God bless you.
🐕🐶🙏👍🤝
How beautiful . Dog's are mans best friends. Wishing them many years of love & companionship.
I honour you for doing this! 😍
thank pu for taking him.back.
Only in the land of the free and home of the brave. Thanks for both of your services, Jacks included.
God bless this entire family. And our military.🙏❤️🐾🇺🇸
What a family. Love peace to you
what a pretty dog ^^ im so happy for them being able to bring him home
You're a good man Fish! Happiness and good karma to you n' yours!
First, thank you and your family for serving our country. Now, you are a WONDERFUL FAMILY OF FOUR!
Gorgeous little fella, I hope he has a long and happy life with his Forever Family.
beautiful puppy to dog
I brought two dogs to the US from India and I can tell you this: they were worth every penny, every late night, every bit of heartburn, and every dang form I had to fill out. We lost Rex a couple years ago. It was a devastating blow. We had him cremated and he will be with me forever. Emma's still hanging in there even with having only 3 legs (and all 3 have issues) plus epilepsy... she's still doing okay. She's such a strong-willed dog, and so dang sweet. I miss Rex, but I don't think we can replace him. When we eventually lose Emma, we will probably find a couple more dogs from some other far flung place. ;)
thank you for rescuing your pups!
God bless you taking this dog thats america for look after this solider guy be proud of him
Dont let this guy be a fallen here to many america soliders are forgoťten hex a herein scotland

I sure can't. We've become inseparable.
This is absolutely heart warming - thank you so much for saving Jax .... I wish there were more like you who would do the same ! Thank you SO MUCH !
Lovely family now with a matching ginger pup.
LOL! I didn't even notice that. So true.
This is real responsibility, carried right through. Very well done.
This warms my heart in this cruel world, you are a great American. Thank you for your service, I wish I could save all the dogs " man's best friend."
Well done, Marine.
AWWWWWWWWWW! What a cutie!!!!! I'm so happy you got reunited with him! What a sweetheart! He is very lucky to have all of you as a family.

Thankyou for your service. ❤RESCUING YOUR WONDERFUL DOG BACK. AII THE BEST TO YOUR FAMILY TOGETHER. I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU AND YOUR BEAUTIFUL DOG ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊 GOD BLESS YOU.
Thank you so much for your beautiful heart God bless you abundantly for loving that dog there are so many cruel people in this world but people like you make a better place
Thank you for the work you do, finding pups and the soldiers they helped. It's healing just to see they getting back together. Funny how healing can work that way. Sometimes even without war, life take a toll on folks. Pupdogs and cats seem to have a talent for drawing people out of darkness. Messengers from God, I calls'em.
Jax looks traumatized. I hope he is better now.
+shelley annette just scared being in a new place I'm sure you have to remember he was used to the base if afghanistin
+shelley annette Remember that he also had a very long flight. Humans in that situation would be jet-lagged and have their nerves rattled. I'm sure he was fine, in a day or two.
I agree. He looked a little traumatized. But I'm sure he's okay now.
I promise you, give a dog some food and water, a place to sleep and bit of love and they "blossom" really, really quick. I should know, I have 3 rescues...........
Probably because being in an unknown place a long journey and away from the only home he knows
It is soooooooo amazing how these people bring these vets and dogs to each other amazing service people and amazing family 💗💜💜💖🌈
LOVE YOU GOT this pup,🐾♥️🐾♥️🐾♥️☘🇺🇸
4:02 that was the sweetest thing ever :')
Watching this and seeing them reunited made me so happy. Thank you for being who you are and caring .
Love this kind of love that you shown to a homeless puppy in Afghanistan and take care of him and finally flew him home reunite with you and family, what's a love ❤, good on Jax having a lovely home and living in a beautiful country, God bless you all , Thank you Michelle Fisher double 👍 👍 for you
Semper-Fi !!!! I love this kind of happy ending.
So Sweet, nice to see a happy story and so kind of the marine to bring the dog home Yeah and God bless him
