Bring Penny Home!

Operation Baghdad Pups helps transport dogs that our soldiers have fallen in love in Iraq, back with them to the USA. Many speak about how their dog was the one thing that helped them deal with their stressful life as a soldier in Iraq.

Let’s help them bring that unconditional love back with them. Please donate if you can. It’s a great way to celebrate the Holiday Season.

— Kenn

Petey and Penny were born in 2007 on a base outside Baghdad, Iraq, and quickly bonded with a marine nmaed Dave. Petey and Penny were always together and happy every day. They grew protective of the marines and barked at anyone they didn’t know. The months rolled into years as Petey and Penny protected and played with marines as teams rotated in and out.

Until October 16, 2009 when Petey and Penny slipped off the compound and were shot – no one knows why. Even though Penny was hit with a bullet in the lower portion of her face and was losing blood quickly, she found a way to crawl a mile back to base where medics were able to save her. Petey died from 3 gunshot wounds and Penny still searches for him today.

Dave asked Operation Baghdad Pups to rescue Penny and bring her to his family home in Tucson. He says, “Penny is one tough cookie. It’s a miracle she is alive. She’s done her job very well for years and doesn’t deserve to be left behind.”

Your tax-deductible donation will help us ensure Penny’s rescue in 2010.
