Princess Taylor, a yellow Labrador, was a sniffer military dog in war-torn Afghanistan, and a very skillful one at that. She would work with her handler, Sergeant Tom Hansen, to expose bombs. The two became very close.

Taylor was so good at saving lives, that the Taliban had even placed a bounty on her head. But, after her many dutiful years in the battlefield, she was retired and left all alone in her kennel.
Enter Molli Oliver, a veteran flight attendant with a passion for reuniting military dogs with their handlers. She saves up funds on her own, collects dogs, and flies them to join their handlers. She had already helped 4 military dogs, when she learned about Taylor.

Molli gets to work to bring Taylor home. In this video, we see Tom nervous and excited, as it has been 2 years since he last saw Taylor. He remembers all the times that Taylor had saved his life, and supported him emotionally.
