Herbie Update 1.18.13

Via Doc Rick Broz:
"1-18-2013 HERBIE'S HOME!!!!!!!! Or at least at my (our) home now. I brought him home this evening after work, after receiving extensive grilling and instructions by Ashley and the other girls who have been taking care of him. He walked out the door and found his way towards my patrol car, the same one he rode in a month and a half ago. He seemed to recognize it, by sound maybe? He sniffed the air for a few minutes once I got him home and then settled down to nap........the staff told me that he really was full of energy today, walked a lot around the clinic and outside. More than he usually does, but that is always a day by day thing. Some days are better than others. So he's chilling now so I have a minute to write this update."

Love you so Herbie!!! ♥ ♥ ♥

Sgt. Stubby: America's 1st Bully Hero!

In response to World War I, members of the First Company Governor's Foot Guard were activated and inducted into the 102nd Infantry Battalion of the 26th "Yankee" Division along with members of Connecticut's other Organized Militia units and numerous volunteers. During their training on the grounds of Yale University prior to deployment, they unexpectedly added a soldier to their company. Found by then-Private John Conroy, Stubby was a brindle patched puppy of unknown descent with a short tail from which he received his name. As the soldiers became familiar with army life, so did Stubby. Stubby became familiar with all of the bugle calls, the drill marching routines, and the routines of life in camp, even learning to give a dog's version of a salute. Stubby would would put his right paw on his right eyebrow when a salute was executed by others around him. Stubby's effect on the soldiers around him as well as his dedication to training and his ability to salute earned him the right to remain in the camp, even though animals were not allowed.
