Summary
Crawling through steaming jungles in the Pacific or hunkering down in frozen trenches, the loyal dogs of World War II stayed by their soldier’s side, no matter what. They saved lives, delivered messages when all forms of communication failed, they brought supplies when no one else could get through. These are the stories of the brave, loyal dogs who served. All armies had them, the Germans, Japanese, British, Russia and the United States. Civil Defense dogs in England searched for the victims of bombings, Coast Guard dogs watched the shores for enemies, some dogs guarded storehouses and equipment, some were taken prisoner and lived in POW camps, some were mascots, but all were loved. Some dogs gave all and some returned home. The War Dogs of WWII is their story.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable.

Summary
What happened to the Jewish family pets that were left behind in World War II, Europe? Jewish families were torn from their homes, taken to ghettos and concentration camps. They were forced to leave their neighborhoods, livelihoods, possessions and the animals that loved and depended on them. Dogs and cats often faced bleak and harsh conditions, but faithfully guarded the house or farm. In the dangers and privations of war, they focused on comforting and protecting their people and when the family was taken away, they waited and watched for their return.
