This makes my blood absolutely boil. So we gave large amounts of weapons to terrorists, handed Russia and China a country to take over and gave terrorists a new base where they can build up to attack the US homeland...and we abandoned man's best friend?

Our un Constitutional foreign policy, which puts our military personal in harms way over nothing to do with protecting our borders doesn't care about the men and women who serve, why would they care about dogs?

Bring the troops to protect our borders like the Constitution says.

The cats are there to keep the dogs in line. Generalissimo Fluffy, at your service.

I have photos of the dog my dad had while serving in Korea in the mid 50s, after the cease fire. It was a stray he started to feed. How many times does the pet adopt you instead of the other way around?
