Biloxi puppies end up on Air Force One

From the Sun Herald:

"In April, when an advance team for President Bush came to Biloxi to tour the Hands On Network volunteer center that is based at Beauvoir Methodist Church, they e-mailed staff back at the White House photos of puppies that the president would see when he visited the camp. There was a pen of puppies, all offspring of dogs abandoned after Katrina.....By the time Bush arrived, the dogs already had their health certificates so they could travel across state lines and were crated and ready to go when the entourage arrived....Once informed, the president was supportive, volunteers said, and whisked them away aboard Air Force One."
