  On May 22, 2008, we had the honor of meeting with Congressman Walter B. Jones (NC) in person on Capitol Hill, Washington D.C., to discuss the following with him:

A) Establishing a service-wide Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for Retiring MWD Adoptions
B) Establishing a website listing of ALL unspoken for MWDs world-wide suitable for adoption
C) Establishing a mandate that the U.S. Government MUST return to the Continental U.S. via                       government transport all retiring MWDs stationed at overseas bases eligible for adoption 

Congressman Jones cares about the fate of these wonderful MWD Heroes and has agreed to look into the policies and procedures which currently exist! We ENCOURAGE you TO EXPRESS YOUR APPRECIATION to Congressman Jones and to lend your CONTINUED SUPPORT in ENCOURAGING that the necessary reforms in Retiring Military Working Dog Adoptions take place.

Dear Congressman Jones,
     
    We appreciate your willingness to look into the Retiring Military Working Dog Adoptions Program. We thank   you for your noble service to our Nation and for your great care for all Service Members and MWDs who               faithfully serve to protect and defend America . Thank you, especially, for your willingness to address the             issues regarding retiring Military Working Dog Adoptions which will facilitate the provision of good retirement      homes for all our noble, retiring MWDs. Our goal is to have successful placement for EVERY retiring MWD          suitable for adoption. As you know, we strongly feel that the euthanization of even ONE MWD suitable for             adoption is both tragic and UNACCEPTABLE.

  We are grateful for your time and devotion  to our noble, faithful, heroic U.S. MWDs ready for retirement. We     sincerely thank you for your interest and for your intercession on behalf of all retiring MWDs! We truly look             forward to the accomplishment of GREAT THINGS for the heroic dogs which have faithfully served our Nation!

Respectfully submitted,

TYPE YOUR NAME
