Military Power of Attorney For Pets

Posted on February 23, 2009 by Danny Meek

My son Stephen is leaving for a tour of duty in Iraq. In light of the totality of the dangers involved, it may seem trivial, but he has four hunting dogs that he absolutely adores and wants to provide for them while he is gone. Is there any special documentation that you can suggest?

Marilou, thank your son for his service and I sincerely hope that his tour is relatively incident free.

I have previously written about Military Powers of Attorney here.

A Special Military Power of Attorney for Pets can designate an individual or individuals to care for and maintain pet (s) during a military absence, and authorize any and all medical care necessary, including major surgery and humane disposal, as deemed necessary by the Veterinary Service.

Visit the above posting for additional information.

And, good luck to Stephen
