Despite the remarkable efforts of the U.S. Air Force, which has worked hard to bring back most war dogs, too many of our four-footed veterans are left behind on foreign soil and never again see their human Battle Buddies with whom they went through so much. The problem is that if dogs are retired overseas, they become civilians and are no longer qualified to travel home on military vehicles – creating an often insurmountable barrier to getting them home.

And once that standard has been established, it becomes increasingly difficult to raise it, periodically, to even higher planes. Yet such a thing has been happening, yearly, with the great Morris and Essex Kennel Club Show.” Somerset, NJ – The quote above […]

No one who is interested in the state of the dog fancy can have missed the fabulous prices that were offered for Tibetan Mastiffs in China only a couple of years ago. Nor can they have missed the recent article about the rescue of a wretched group of abused Tibetan Mastiffs who were destined for the slaughterhouse in the same country. What has brought a noble, intelligent, thoughtful, and valuable animal to such a pass in only a few years? How did it come to this?

Motels may not have been created for hunting dogs but you’d be hard pressed to convince mine this is true. If you were to ask them whether they wanted to sleep in their crates in the back of the truck, even though the crates were cushioned with memory foam, or go inside and do what people do–brag about the shots they made that day, moan about arthritic knees and other aching body parts, watch the weather channel–there isn’t much question which option the dogs would select. Obviously the motel room is infinitely better than any crate, no matter how many comfortable amenities it might contain, and I suspect this is not just true of sporting dogs but virtually any breed except possibly the sled dog breeds that would find even the chilliest motel room unbearably hot.
