Homeless Veteran Reunites With Dog

Homeless U.S. Army veteran Rusty Reed lost his best friend in the world this summer, when his dog Timber ran away during a camping trip in Utah. Through the power of the internet, and the devotion of friends, Rusty and Timber were recently united.

According to the National Coalition for the Homeless, an estimated 130,000 and 200,000 veterans are homeless on any given night. Homeless vets make up as much as a quarter of all homeless Americans.
