Just info sharing...below is a website a friend just mentioned.

It seems to be a great site for dog lovers/owners. You can volunteer to assist, or get help when needed:

Wow, great and simple idea. You can help a fellow servicemember and recieve a part time pet while they are deployed.

Great idea...... but I have seen somethings go horribly wrong with these types of arrangemnets hopefully this one is different. We have one Soldier here in Washington that did that and came back to no dog whoever was boarding it sold the dog on craigslist and moved away. Even if they paid for you to get a replacement pet it still doesnt replace yours.
