THE FIRST BOOK OF ITS KIND, A “HOT WASH” ON THE AFGHAN PULLOUT, BY A COMBAT VETERAN AND BESTSELLING AUTHOR.
“The way in which we’re pulling out is something that’s disgraceful … a betrayal of what our soldiers have bled for” – Séamus Fennessy on NBC’s TODAY Show
9/11 … Never Forget?
How did a planned withdrawal turn into a retreat, and the retreat into a humiliating rout – the most catastrophic military loss in American history?
How was this disaster easily avoidable?
Did the U.S. leadership aid the Taliban to victory?
Why is America now in greater danger, and what can we do about it?United Federation K9 Handlers Union – MSA K9 Handlers Union, United Federation LEOS-PBAJoin the United Federation LEOS-PBA Law Enforcement Officers Security & Police Benefit Association the true authority of Law Enforcement, Protective Service Officers, Special Police Officers, Security Police Officers, Nuclear Security Officers, K9 Handlers, Security Officers, Security Guards and Security Professionals nationwide.

The military, police, and rescue teams have developed different training methods for K9 units over the years. The training is tailored to meet the demands of the job for each animal and its handler.
Ways you can honor those K9 Veterans are adopting a retired K9, teaching your dog a new trick, or giving your furry friend an extra treat today.
Today is #NationalK9VeteransDay, honoring the thousands of military working dogs who have served throughout history. From acting as messengers in WWI to finding hidden IEDs in Afghanistan and Iraq, military working dogs have helped to save countless American lives. #K9VeteransDaypic.twitter.com/Y9T5LFWNiQ

Happy K9 Veterans Day to all our furry friends that have served alongside our less fluffy Veterans.

Today, we celebrate our military’s four-legged warriors. Did you know a military working dog is traditionally an NCO? While not given a formal rank, dogs are considered one rank higher than their handlers to show respect. Happy #K9VeteransDay! pic.twitter.com/kpBQprW8cV

MSA Security: Please Return K9 Mattie to her Military Family
I have tried to sit down to write this message several times but have failed as my family and I have been overcome with tremendous sorrow.
My husband, combat veteran SSG Séamus Fennessy was a K9 handler with MSA Security for five years. (UPDATE: MSA Security is now owned by Allied Universal, as of September, 2021). During this time Seamus and his K9 partner Mattie worked exclusively with each other – Mattie never had another handler nor had Seamus had another dog. At the end of 2018 my husband informed MSA that he was going to serve his country on active military duty but would be local and still able to keep up with Mattie’s training. Since MSA had previously allowed handlers to keep their dogs in similar circumstances we had no reason to believe this would be different. Except it was. At the 11th hour only 2 days before my husband went on orders we were abruptly informed that Mattie would need to be returned and someone “would pick her up in the morning”.
Mattie was just shy of 7 years of age and nearing retirement when she was taken in January of 2019. Upon her birthday, April 26th, 2022, she will be 10 years old; she is currently still working, far away from home. The average lifespan of a Labrador Retriever is 12 years.
MSA & PWP have callously torn our family member, our beloved “Mattie Cakes,” from her family who loves and adores her. While our daughters and myself could hardly contain our tears, my husband remained strong despite a barrage of phone calls and texts from MSA which included threats of destroying his military career.
My husband is a veteran and decorated war hero – and in the words of MSA themselves a “great employee”. Mattie is a goofy, lovable pooch who adores playing with the kids in our backyard and napping on the sofa. Neither deserve this treatment.
MSA & PWP have taken Mattie from her loving home and ripped our family apart. This is devastating to everyone involved. Including our sweet Mattie, our lovable goofball who doesn’t understand any of this but is wondering what she did wrong to end up in a kennel torn from her family and everything she knows. It’s this image that haunts me. Mattie is innocent and in true MSA / PWP fashion they are using her as leverage as they routinely do with their dogs.
Please sign our petition to urge MSA Security / Parella Weinberg Partners to return Mattie to the family who loves her.
And please let MSA & PWP know how you feel about this! Direct contact has a positive impact. CONTACT INFO:
