• This program helps Virginia military members place their pets with carers during deployment (mountainmedianews.com) — A national nonprofit called Operation Foster helped a deployed sailor find a temporary foster home for his dog Lola, who is now staying with a family in Westwood. The program connects military members and veterans nationwide with vetted foster homes, ensuring pets are cared for during deployments, training, or medical treatment while owners cover ongoing expenses.
