New York Knicks Surprise Veteran With Service Dog

November 11, 2016

A 36-year veteran of the force who served in Iraq and Afghanistan finally received a service dog after being on a wait-list for 18 months. Who knew all he had to do was call the New York Knicks?

Sgt. 1st Class Luciano Yulfo was honored before the Nets-Knicks game at Madison Square Garden Wednesday night. What he wasn’t expecting was Murphy, his new companion.

What a way to celebrate Veteran’s Day.
