Default Army blocks soldier from bringing puppy back

"WASHINGTON - More than 10,000 people have signed an online petition urging the Army to let an Iraqi puppy come home with a Minnesota soldier, who fears that "Ratchet" could be killed if left behind."

You can sign a petition if you're so inclined:

Thanks, cy. It just seems like a nice thing for her to do, and a small way to thank her and other soldiers for their service. You might not believe the nasty responses I've got on other forums for posting this, telling me it's just a freaking dog and to get over it, that sort of stuff. It's not like I'm begging folks to sign it, or asking for them to send money.

Yup, I signed on the line. I love dogs and appreciate when I see one go to a good and truthfully caring owner.
