Help MWD Vegas Make the Journey Home
For years in Italy, Military Working Dog Vegas stood beside his handler, SGT Eric, protecting lives with unwavering loyalty.
Now retired, he has one mission left: getting home.
After nearly a year apart, Vegas is still overseas, waiting to travel from Italy to Washington and reunite with the person he trusts most.
American Humane Society is working to make that journey possible. And right now, a $20,000 match from Pets Best Pet Insurance for Be Kind to Animals Week means your gift will go twice as far to help bring him home and support all our life-changing programs.
He Served with Honor:
Now He Needs Your Help
Military Working Dog Vegas spent four years in service in Italy—protecting U.S. service members and standing side by side with his handler, SGT Eric. Their bond, built through trust, training and shared missions, never wavered.
Now, Vegas is retired. But instead of being home, he remains overseas, waiting to go home to his former handler and best friend.
American Humane Society is working to bring Vegas home, covering the cost of his journey from Italy to Washington so he can finally be reunited with the person he trusts most.
With your support, that journey can become a reality.
Soon, Vegas will begin the next chapter of his life where he belongs—safe, loved and by Eric’s side. After years of service, he’ll finally get what every hero deserves: a home, a family and the chance to simply be a dog.
