Following a successful mission in collaboration with Guardians of Rescue and SAC Fund to reunite a dog called Trigger with his owner, in March 2012 we once again partnered with Guardians of Rescue and SAC Fund to undertake what became known as ‘Op No Buddy Left Behind’

From time to time dogs arrive at the Nowzad shelter that have been cared for by soldiers but when it is time for the soldiers to leave they are unable to offer them permanent homes in the USA.  The soldiers obviously do not want to leave their battle buddies behind to an unknown fate so they bring them to the Nowzad shelter and we work on finding them loving homes in the West.

After working hard we were able to identify 1o dogs that had been raised by soldiers and desperately needed homes in the West and at the end of April 2012 after much hard work we were able to transport all 10 animals to New York where they were met by Guardians of Rescue and taken to Hounds Town for some training in preparation for being re-homed with US Soldiers and Veterans.

The lucky dogs who were given this chance at a new life in America were Lucky, Sunshine, Vegas, Cinnamon, Socks, Blackie, Tony, Sonny, , Tommy and Pnut.
