Adam Wylie, an Air Force Staff Sgt., hadn’t seen his military dog, Emra, for three years, writes ilovemydogsomuch
The Belgian Malinois was with Adam for some of his most difficult days. Things really began to take a toll on Adam, especially when he was deployed just 25 days after his daughter was born.

From 2012 to 2014, the two of them worked together overseas. Emra was always by his side, not only to help him in the military, but to provide him emotional support as well.
Now that Emra is nine years old, her days in the military have come to an end and she has finally retired. Luckily for Adam, he was able to adopt her!

In the video below, you will see their emotional reunion, where Adam is unable to hold back tears. Emra was just as happy to see her handler.
Adam is thrilled to have Emra back and looks forward to giving her a happy, relaxing life outside of the military.
