Richard Hutchison didn't get to see his brother, Maj. Steven Hutchison, return home alive from Iraq. But Monday he got at least a tiny comfort: Laia, the dog the soldier rescued and loved in Iraq, landed in the United States after being saved by his former comrades and Operation Baghdad Pups, an offshoot of SPCA International.

"It’s the last thing left of him that he was passionate about," Richard told PEOPLE Pets after meeting the young yellow dog at Washington Dulles International Airport. "Even though Steve's not here, I know how much Steve loved the dog. You can kind of feel Steve through the dog. I can see something that he loved over here. I can see it here licking us."

No Buddy Gets Left Behind

These are the items that are used regularly when bringing animals from either Iraq or
Afghanistan to the United States. Getting these items donated will help reduce the
overall cost per animal and in the long run allow Operation Baghdad Pups to help more
animals.

Please email answers@spcaquestions.com if would like to donate any items to Operation
Baghdad Pups.

Here is their wish list of supplies -
