Handicapped and War Dog Rescue
America's Unsung Heros.. War Dogs
Did you know that America has an almost unknown force of heros who risk the most dangerous missions, scouting, searching for explosives,
helping to save wounded soldiers and other clandestine
and super dangerous activities?
These heros have for years been unsung and at one time wereabandoned or worse at the end of their tour...with nary a thanks or even a ride
home.
America's War Dogs have saved the lives of countless Americans and are only recently being recognized and given a 2nd chance at life in
appreciation for their heroic deeds.
Some are injured and handicapped physically or perhaps are simply longing for a home...which bears fruit to the real question of today.
Would You Save the Life of a Handicapped Hero?
If we examine our attitude toward dogs with handicaps,(they may be war dogs or dogs from your local neigborhood or shelter) perhaps we can
learn a bit about ourselves in the process.
IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A DOG this is still worth reading as it is really about the meaning and value of all life.
Generally, when people decide to adopt or rescue a dog, the first thought that comes to mind is that cute puppy they saw in a pet store( bad
choice) shelter, rescue, or happily playing in the their neighbor's front yard.
There is no doubt that a healthy young puppy can be a wonderful addition to any household. And a lively, already house trained, ready to go
adult pooch can be just the perfect addition for a busy household looking for a 'ready to go' companion.
Perfect puppy, perfect adult dog, what can be better than that? The answer may surprise you but the most rewarding experience that you ever
have may be the time your lfe is blessed by the company of a handicapped dog.
I have had the opportunity to spend untold hours in hospitals for patients of the human variety. I've seen children stricken with cancer,
elderly folks propped up in bed during their final illness, someone's former husband or wife, alone and suffering through an illness, praying for
a chance to be needed again.
In every age group, with every infirmity, there remains in the heart of the afflicted a desire to love and be loved. I would sometimes
stop and chat for a moment or two with such a patient on their way to their next medical procedure or grabbing a few moments of freedom during a
wheel chair ride.
Anxious to interact they would recount stories of their youth,
times they spent fishing, with family, being needed.
The very same analogy applies to handicapped dogs. Whether born with a deformity, injured in an accident or during war, abused or recovering
from a medical condition, these dogs yearn to love and be loved. Having endured so much to survive they want nothing more than to show
their appreciation, their love, and to share the
wisdom that only a soul that has endured much is capable of.
War dogs have endured the most extreme of dangers and while most are healthy and sound they have never had a chance at a happy home life.
When you adopt a handicapped dog or a war dog you will become a student. A student of life, a student of love, a student of compassion, and
you will have a teacher who will be your most joyfilled companion in life's adventures. And you will be adopting a hero, handicapped physically
or one that just needs and deserves a
loving home.
If you are ready to adopt a handicappd dog in her journey of life you must be prepared to give her your time and necessary resources such as a
doggy wheelchair.
In return, you will be repaid by an experience that will ingrain upon your heart and soul a perspective that will stay with you for the
remainder of your life. Lucky dog, lucky you. :)
