ICYMI: Army Member Saves Puppy; LI Group Helping Get Dog To U.S.

NESCONSET, NY — A group of U.S. Army service members found a dog who needed help and enlisted a Nesconset-based group to get the dog to the United States.

The group of water dogs — or soldiers who try to make potable water supplies for the military — was getting water from a well when its members spotted a puppy in need of help, Paws of War said. The soldiers sprang into action, and are now on a mission to get the puppy they've come to love relocated to the U.S., where she can live out her life in a loving family.

“This adorable puppy has bonded with Sergeant Wryle, and we will do everything we can to relocate her to safety," said Derek Cartwright, a veteran and the coordinator for Paws of War. “We can't do it alone, so we are asking people in the community to support the effort. Together, we can do this for Sgt. Wryle.”
