Briana White, who is with the Air Force serving in Iraq, is looking for information on how to set up a program to help stray animals in Iraq. Here’s her e-mail:
Hello, my name is Briana and I’m with the United States Air Force currently serving in Iraq. Since I have been here I have noticed a lot of stray dogs and other animals that I would like to help but right now the rules prevent me from doing so because of the diseases they carry. I have yet to talk to my leadership about my plan so I send this email to see what kind of support I might be able to receive. Examples of things that would provide useful are worm medicine, food, flea treatment and other simple medications. If you happen to know a website that I can look at for standard animal care it would also be appreciated.
Briana is in the information-gathering stage, trying to find out what resources are available. If you have any information for her on starting such a program, please e-mail Briana at briana.white@iraq.centcom.mil. Thanks so much!
