My story
With your help we raised the £3000 needed to bring peg home, and now we need it again to help other people who were in our situation. We needed their help now Nowzad need yours even more... they have lost their lease to the land in which nowzad dogs was situated and now have 3 months to raise the £250,000 needed to rehome and relocate the charity and its animals.

On the 9th of February 2011, Private Conrad Lewis of the Parachute Regiment sadly became the 353rd fallen soldier to be killed during his first tour of Afghanistan. As a family and a group of such wide but close friends it becomes hard to find moments and things of comfort which you long to hold onto.
However, during Conrads tour and time in Afghanistan he would often talk highly of a stray dog that they should have shot when taking over the CP (they didn't) and she was a constant companion to the checkpoint where Conrad operated, she went on nearly every patrol, even stayed in one of the longest (9 hours) contacts. She would lie down with them, stand and move forward with them, completely unphased by the gunfire and she provided in her own way that element of compassion and "home" that they needed. Now with thanks to Nowzad dogs, Sbag (in the picture on the left) renamed Peg, short for Pegasus, is finally home in quarantine. As you can appreciate this is a very unique memory for everybody as she was something so close to Conrad and someone who Conrad would spend his time with and spent his last few days with. But, this is not a cheap process and we feel we should help with the cost of bringing home this final puzzle piece and the last Afghan hero from the 2010/11 tour, whether we help with the whole cost or just make a dent, we feel our gratitude should be repayed somehow.

An Afghan dog's life is not one of comfort at the best of times; hunting for scraps of food or hiding from the hot sun during the summer and the freezing cold of an Afghan winter night. There is definitely no pampered pet status in Afghanistan. Nowzad Dogs making a difference 'One Dog at a Time'
