Cavalry horse association votes neigh on military working dog memorial

Filed · 1532

WASHINGTON – The National Association of Ghost Horses, or NAGH, has spoken out against a memorial for military working dogs, sources confirmed today.

“It’s a matter of fairness,” said Cincinnati, NAGH’s spokeshorse. “We horses have borne the worst of the battle, and haven’t received a fraction of the adoration military working dogs do. We're stomping mad. I, for one, had to carry Ulysses S. Grant’s fat ass into battle, where I watched my brother horses get bayonetted. Little Fluffy did what? Sniffed something? He sniffed something and everyone thinks he should get a statue."

He added: "We collectively raise our lovely manes to say ‘neigh’ to this injustice.”

The military working dog memorial at Lackland Air Force base in San Antonio, Texas, depicts dogs standing around, sniffing things, and possibly barking, which are all rather unimpressive feats according to NAGH members.
