A military dog who formed an inseparable bond with one of his handlers during deployment in South Korea has been adopted by the airman after a near-death experience. The pair had a joyful reunion in New Mexico after being separated for eight months.
On July 12, military working dog Akim was reunited with Senior Airman Jenna Canada in Albuquerque. Since their pairing in 2020, Jenna knew she would be the one to adopt him upon his retirement.
