Hi I have just read in the sunday sun that two army dogs are due to be put to sleep next week Kevin and Dazz have both served in Afghanistan and according to the handlers and witnesses are not a risk to humans the main article is on the tony parsons page the link is change.org/savevetrandogs I don't know how to correctly post the link so if some kind soul could do it correctly thank you.
Signed, its been the Military's policy for a long time to "retire" dogs at a certain age, to me as long as they have not been used as guard dogs (those ones can be vicious little buggers), then I don't see any problem with having these retired properly to live out their lives after their military service

Signed and shared on FB. This is utterly appalling. Can you imagine, those dogs are probably that well-trained that they will just sit or lie there for the injection without a murmur. Truly heartless, I'm genuinely aghast.
It happened at the end of the Vietnam conflict, such a sad vindictive way to treat mans best friend. https://www.vice.com/en_uk/article/qbxpdb/the-us-m...
And after Afghanistan....

Wow, totally unacceptable. Signed.
At least it's ended well for Kevin, Dazz and Driver as they were rehomed after Defence Secretary was contacted.
They NY Post article below was a sobering read. Typical, money first mentality with private companies getting involved with military contracts.

Very sad reading there, horrible way to repay those dogs! Cant imagine how frustrating it must be for the handlers, especially dealing with returning from war themselves. https://www.vice.com/en_uk/article/qbxpdb/the-us-m...
