Two Left



























About two weeks ago I received some crushing news. 5 of the 7 puppies that we rescued here in Kirkuk have died. It all happened so fast, they got sick and died within a day or two over the period of four or five days. It was horrible. Such a tragic loss when they were SO close to flying out of this country. Fatoon and the two remaining puppies are doing fine and are scheduled to fly out of here tomorrow. They will arrive in DC on the 20th at 12:40 from Frankfurt. I'm super excited to get them into better vet care than what they have here in Iraq. Fatoon and the female pup, the lighter of the two will be flying on Pet Airways to Atlanta on the 25th. Vicki, Casey, Mom, Dad, Sarah, Tessa and Ellis will all be there to welcmoe them home. The male puppy will be flying out to CA to live with Tracy, a WONDERFUL lady who is probably more excited about him than I am, if that's even possible. I'm anxious to get these guys into better homes and I can't wait to post pictures of them arriving in Atlanta and CA.
