Stray Iraqi dogs flown to U.S. for adoption
By Edith Honan
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Alishia Leitheiser has rescued animals since she was young, so the U.S. soldier's mother wasn't surprised to be picking up a stray dog from a U.S. airport on Friday that her daughter befriended in Iraq.
The black puppy with white legs and white spots -- named Iraqi by Leitheiser -- was one of 24 dogs flown from Baghdad to Newark International Airport in New Jersey this week by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals International.
The dogs are set to be reunited with U.S. soldiers who adopted them.
