Paws of War is a non-profit that serves soldiers through animals. When overseas, soldiers often find animals they connect with. Whether they find a dog or a cat, Paws of War seeks to bring those animals home so that soldiers and veterans can find comfort.
This week, country singer Gavin DeGraw helped the cause, reuniting an adorable dog with a hero just before Christmas. Gavin’s family has a background in the military, so it’s a cause that’s close to his heart.
U.S. Army Air Defense Officer First Lt. Alyse Schnurr was the soldier Gavin worked with. Her gratitude was palpable as she was handed her pup.
“It made me way more emotional than I thought it would, but I’m so excited to have her back here already,” she recalled.
Check out the footage of Gavin DeGraw at Alyssa and her dog’s reunion below.
