This past Saturday, the 27th of November, Fox News aired a story about the Lee family and Lex, the wounded military working dog that was adopted by the Lee family. Corporal Dustin Lee was Lex's handler and the Lees' son. A rocket-propelled grenade ended the life of Corporal Lee and also injured Lex by sending shrapnel into his back in 2007. Lex's pain has been so very severe over the past 3 years, and he has also had a hard time walking. Lex received adult canine stem cell therapy at Georgetown Veterinary Hospital, performed by Dr. Lee Morgan. Lex was released last Friday with much success. I would like to thank Kelly Wright of the Fox News' show 'Fox and Friends,' for taking interest in this story and understanding the importance of war dogs in our military. Through his kind work, many people were touched by this heartwarming story. I would also like to thank Dr. Lee Morgan of Georgetown Veterinary Hospital. Dr. Morgan volunteered much of his personal time to Lex, his recovery, and the Lee family. He was very kind and devoted to this cause and gave this dog and family the attention they deserve.

Leftist Democrats cannot continue to advocate for federal agents to ‘get more training’ while at the same time purposefully removing opportunities like this to get that very training.
