In the midst of war, a soldier hears a whimper. They pause… and see a dog. The dog is skinny, injured, and looks at them with hopeful eyes. Those eyes are a reminder of the dog they had as a child, they remember their childhood, and their loved ones back home. The soldier then bends down and scoops the dog up, and two lives are saved. In that moment, in all the chaos, amidst all the combat and destruction, a bond is formed.
These dogs and cat were rescued by the men and women that serve our country. They want nothing more than to have the peace of mind of knowing their best friend is safe. Please help us help them.
Sometimes our soldiers, who can’t help saving the animals that have given them so much, are unable to offer them a home in States due to the nature of their service to our country or for other reasons. This weighs heavy on the soldier’s soul, since this dog means so much to them. Nowzad will not turn these rescues away, but the charity then needs to find a home for those who may be left behind. It’s a challenging goal for a charity struggling in a war torn country where these animals are often abused, discarded, or only valued in the miserable “sport” of dog fighting. And now, more than ever before, Nowzad needs our help to meet this goal and ensure that these animals find forever homes With the military pull-out of Afghanistan eminent, we have six remaining dogs and a cat named Buster that need to be removed from Afghanistan as soon as possible. Our goal is to transport these dogs to the United States where they will be safely and lovingly kept at Hounds Town-Port Jefferson. While there they will be put through a training program designed to help them adapt to life in the US, and ready them to join the lives of their new owners.
We are proud to announce that we are committing to rescue the remaining dogs and cats at Nowzad in Afghanistan that are in the same situation as the dogs we brought home for our troops in May.
These last 6 dogs and cat were the battle buddies of our American Soldiers. These men and women deserve the peace of mind of knowing that their best friends are now safe too.
These men and women want to know their best friends have the lives they dreamed for them.
Meet the dogs and cat of Operation Support Our Troops: Mission 2 Buster, Zoe, Cassie, Kara, Pebbles, Malik, & Gracey!
Together we save them!
