Paws of War Reunites Four US Soldiers with the Dogs They Helped Rescue from the Middle East

This past Thursday, a heartwarming reunion between four service members and five of the dogs that they rescued while serving in the Middle East took place in Brooklyn. The reunion event marked a joyous and emotional gathering for the seven soldiers who recently returned home from service. They were reunited with their four-legged friends for the first time since their base was attacked. All seven dogs, who were abandoned on the street, were protected and cared for by these American soldiers.

In March, Paws of War embarked on a dangerous mission to rescue seven dogs (King, Hades, Shilo, Socks, Milo, Ulfhednar and Pedro) from a war-torn U.S. military base in the Middle East, who were in great peril. After three failed attempts, Paws of War’s volunteers made the rescue and safely arrived at the organization’s HQ on Long Island. If not for the courageous efforts by Paws of War, these dogs would not have survived.
The rescue operation required months of meticulous planning and faced three failed attempts due to hostilities. After their safe return to the U.S., the dogs were temporarily fostered and eagerly awaited the day their heroes would come home from overseas. After four long months, they will now be reunited with their soldiers who have recently completed their deployments.
