Heroic Dogs

Hi Everyone,

In continuations with the dog theme, in this weeks blog I'll be mentioning a few heroic dogs and what they have accomplished.

  1. Trakr - Helped dig through 30 feet of unstable debris at the World Trade Centre after the September 11 attack to locate the last human survivor of the attack. 
  2. Stubby - This American Pit Bull Terrier helped locate downed and wounded soldiers, incoming artillery fire and poison gas attacks during World War I 
  3. Moti -  A German Shepherd heroically took a bullet for his owner as an intruder fired shots
  4. Toby - Toby the Golden Retriever saved his owner from choking death by jumping onto her chest to dislodge the food which had become stuck in her throat
