Remembering


Monday was a day when we remember the brave humans from this country and the dogs that fought beside them to ensure that we have plenty of kibble and a nice kennel to live in.

I have been doing extensive research for my book and I was amazed to find out that there are around 2,500 dogs in military service with at least 700 deployed at any one time with a little under 200,000 humans.  That means that each dog has around 275 humans to take care of and they have to chase bad guys too.  There are 2 of us in our kennel with 2 humans who we can mostly keep in our line of site which is still a challenge.  The thought of watching 275 humans leaves me with a whole new admiration for these courageous canines.
