review 1: I'm a sucker for animal stories, especially dog stories, and if it's a homeless dog, well that just tugs on my heartstrings. This beautiful story has it all. Homeless, hungry, and frightened dog living with a pack of other homeless dogs in the Iraqi desert finds love, comfort, and safety with Marine Major Brian Dennis and the men under his command. But when they have to move out for Jordan, Nubs (so named by Dennis because his ears had been cut off) is left behind because Marines aren't allowed to have pets. Someone really needs to change that rule! Major Dennis hopes that Nubs will be okay and will still be there when they return. And here's why I love dogs so much and have always had at least one, usually two. Even though Nubs is still recovering from an injury to his si... morede due to a dog fight and has trouble walking, he walks the 70 miles to Jordan to be with Major Dennis. That's love and devotion, the only way a dog knows how to be. They will love you for life.The story has a happy ending. Major Dennis was able to get donations in order to get Nubs flown to the United States. Friends picked him up and took care of him until Major Dennis was able to come home. Now they spend their days hiking and playing on the beach in San Diego. Nubs is finally living the life he deserves, one that I wish all dogs everywhere could have.
review 2: A heartwarming and touching true story of a Marine serving in Iraq who was found by this abused and lonely dog, Nubs. He was named nubs because it appears that someone tried cutting off the dogs' ears. The Marine had to leave the dog behind when his unit moved 70 miles away. Astonishingly, this dog found his way to the new camp and reunited himself with his favorite Marine.One cannot help but be touched by this wonderful story of determination and friendship. I would highly recommend it to anyone. less
