Feel free to 'Copy and Paste' the above information into your letter.
Be DIRECT but KIND and RESPECTFUL in all your communications.
Have Letterwriting Parties...Let's encourage these changes for
Retiring MWD Adoptions!!!
CALL AND WRITE the Air Force Chief of Staff, General Norton A. Schwartz ! ASK for these Proposed Changes to the Retiring MWD Adoption Program:
1. Implement a Standardized Operating Procedure among all the services regarding MWD Adoptions.
2. Set a standardized length of time for the retiring MWD’s paperwork being processed through Lackland AFB.
3. Make it MANDATORY to list all adoption-suitable MWDs world-wide on the Lackland AFB DoD website: http://www.lackland.af.mil/units/341stmwd/index.asp
4. Make it MANDATORY for all adopted OCONUS (OVERSEAS) MWDs to receive transport back to the U.S. via military air. Retired MWDs have no “return to home station” benefits even though for the time of their service we proclaim them as bonafide “military members”. As it now stands, retired OCONUS (OVERSEAS) MWDs must be transported at adoptive owner’s expense as a “pet”!
WHAT ELSE CAN YOU DO to REALLY HELP these HERO MWDS ???

”I just wanted you to hear this from someone who's right in the thick of everything with these MWDs about just how much these dogs are loved while they're working. They really do get royal treatment that most people don't have the opportunity to see. The handlers love them and so do the vet staff. Yes, they are kept in kennels. No, they don't get to go home with someone every night….but while they are a military asset, they really aren't treated like property. I've seen big strong military policemen reduced to tears when their dog was too hurt to be able to go on... I've seen an entire room full of policeman and veterinary staff tearing up like children because of it…
These dogs are the center of attention while they are MWD's, and they are the number one reason that veterinarians exist in the military. It's the part of my job that I take the most pride in.”
