sad news :(
well i got the news that every military wife dreads hearing. my husband is deploying :( this will be his first and certainly not his last. i knew in my heart this would be the year but we just found out 2days ago that on the 5th of may he will be leaving, so this is our last weekend together :'(
the fact that they told us on such short notice is whats bothering me the most. they are suppose to give him a month to do all the paper work and prepare but since they couldnt he has to cram everything in in a week so we have no time together, i mean that friday he will be in class from 7 am to 6pm so there is no time to spend together.
im wondering how this will affect baden and dollar. they are so use to him taking them out in the morning and feeding them at night. he even puts them to bed at night and i never have. its only for 4months but still it just eats at me that my husband is not going to be here with me and i will be alone. i have friends here in AR but no family as they are in Mi. i would go home but i would have to end our lease ans i dont want to do that.
he will miss both our birthdays and our anniversary :( i know its only 4months (16weeks or 120days) but its still hard to say goodbye. i always imagined that teddy would be here for me as he always filled me with joy, dont get me wrong i love dollar and baden but teddy was my heart. with him gone and now my husband i feel truly alone here :'(

There's kind of a genre of photos/videos of vets being welcomed home by their dogs.

I'm sorry to hear about your husband's deployment (but thank him for the service he provides). Squeeze Dollar and Baden a little tighter. Please don't feel alone, we may not live next to you, but we are your family and if you need a shoulder to "cry" on, we are here for you.

It's always hard when someone you love has to leave. I don't have experience with my husband leaving but my son left to join the Marines when his dog Maverick was about 2 years old. I kept Maverick and he misses Ryan but he gets along good. My son has come home on leave a couple times and those reunions were so heartwarming! I took videos each time. You will be surprised at how strong you can be. I like the idea of making a chain. It's been almost 4 years now since my son joined and it seems like it went by so fast. I will keep you, your husband, and your doggies in my prayers. Please thank your husband for his service. We are also from Michigan :)

One thing you can do is send your man photos and videos of the dogs while he's overseas. That will mean a LOT. He'll need Baden and Dollar more than ever.
It's a lot of responsibility for a dog, but that's what dogs are for, and they're good at it. They've been bonding human families for thousands of years.

You will be fine with your dogs at your side. They have always been there for those of us choose to have them as companion. Dogs do not forget, when he comes back, be sure the film one of the most heart warming event you have in your life!

We will keep you all in prayers, and our family wishes to not only say thanks to your husband, but to you as well. It is not only the military that sacrifices for us, but their families. God will carry you through this and we will all be here to help support you!
