A retired Marine credits the dog he smuggled home from Iraq with alerting him that two thieves were trying to burglarize his wife’s car outside their La Jolla home.

Retired Lt. Col. Jay Kopelman said the 4-year-old dog, Lava, began growling and barking about 2 a.m. Wednesday. When Kopelman went outside to investigate, he saw two men inside his wife’s Subaru.
Kopelman followed the men in his car and called police, who arrested them on burglary and drug charges.
Kopelman found Lava in Fallouja and smuggled him home, despite military rules. The tale is explored in the book “From Baghdad, With Love.”
Kopelman is now executive director of the nonprofit Freedom Is Not Free foundation, which helps military personnel who have been wounded and the families of those who were killed.
He has promised a steak dinner for Lava. “This is the most fun I’ve had since I left Fallouja,” he said.

I can’t believe it’s real. I am so excited for it to come out. The tentative release date is May 11, 2009.
I am a VERY informal writer; god knows how I graduated from college or grad school or even 10th grade. But what I lack in formality (thank god for copy editors) I make up for with a lifetime devoted to dogs and dog rescue.
My intention for the book is to help dog owners and dog owners-to-be know the ins and outs of dog ownership. It’s like a ‘What to Expect When You’re Expecting’ but instead of kids, it’s about DOGS! Click here to pre-order!
