The Dog Heroes Of September 11

The Dog Heroes Of September 11

by Amy Shojai | Sep 11, 2018 | Dog Training & Care

Our pets are heroes to us every day, in so many ways, but the service dogs and their human partners who served selflessly in the aftermath of the 9-11 tragedy deserve special recognition.

I published this post first on September 11, 2014, and it’s time to share again.
