Soldier reunites with Rachet

Army Spc. Gwen Beberg has been reunited with Ratchet, the puppy she bonded with after saving him from a burning trash pile in Iraq.
Beberg returned to her Minneapolis home on Saturday after being stationed in Kentucky since she returned from Iraq.
She and another soldier rescued the then-4-week-old puppy in May and an animal rescue group arranged his trip to Minnesota in October.
The dog stayed with Beberg's parents until her return.
The soldier calls Ratchet her "fuzzy little love" that always lifts her spirits.
he U.S. military initially blocked the dog from leaving because it said American troops could not be responsible for its transportation.
The dog was put onto a charter flight instead.
