A heartwarming reunion: Soldier and dog share emotional moment after 8-month deployment

The extended deployments of military personnel impose considerable strain not only on the soldiers themselves but also on their families.

Yet, amidst these challenges, the plight of their beloved pets often goes unnoticed. These faithful companions, unable to comprehend the absence of their human counterparts, also endure their own form of separation anxiety.

For U.S. Army E4 Specialist Troy Glendenning, stationed in the Middle East for the past eight months, the distance from his cherished canine companion, Posie, has been particularly poignant.

--------------------------------------------

Posie has missed her human since the moment he departed, and has been impatiently waiting for him to return.

Posie had no notion her human was coming home, but when she ventures outside, she has a feeling that something is up. She sprints around outside in circles, barking, until she notices him.

Troy was apprehensive of how Posie would react, but her reaction was sweeter than Troy could have ever envisioned.

Once Posie caught a view of him, she couldn’t contain her enthusiasm. She rushed toward him and leapt up in his arms, wagging her tail a mile a minute and giving him kisses all over his face.

--------------------------------------------

Troy and Posie bonded during COVID quarantine, and from the looks of their tender reunion, it’s evident just how close they’ve become.

Both of them are beyond delighted to be together again, and they will certainly be spending every minute together, making up for lost time.
