The reunion was so special that it actually became a live broadcast on Fox 13 News Channel. People all over Tampa were so excited to see these two finally be together again.
“When you think about it, this guy’s a Medevac helicopter in Iraq so he’s saving lives every day from the front lines, and really that’s what he’s doing with this dog,” the newscaster said. “He’s adopting her and taking her away from the war zone.”
On the day of the adoption, it had actually been several months since the two had seen each other. But when the dog was wheeled out in her kennel at the airport, anyone around them could tell that she recognized Nick—even before she was let free.
Both Nick and the pup are teary eyed when they finally get to be in each other’s arms again—and we’re getting pretty choked up ourselves!
The two have many happy memories to build and look forward to! “I’m excited for her reactions of seeing nothing but desert to having a yard of grass and trees [and] being able to run after squirrels,” Nick said.
To see the heartwarming reunion between Nick and his new dog, check out the live broadcast below.
