dog

After years of administrative battle a military dog handler was finally reunited with her loyal friend. Former Marine Cpl. Megan Leavey was told in March that she would be allowed to give a home to Sgt. Rex, the german shepherd she spent two military tours serving with. On Friday night the two were brought back together again in an emotional ceremony at Camp Pendleton’s K-9 Unit which marked the end of Rex's ten-year service…. She launched a high-profile campaign, back[ed] by the owners of the Yankees, where Leavey now provides independent security during baseball games and concerts with her new working dog, Patriot.
