This is from the story about Layka...
"A Belgian Malinois became the first military working dog honored by the 341st Training Squadron for her heroic actions while assigned to a U.S. Special Forces unit in Afghanistan.
Layka, an almost 3-year-old female, was recognized Sept. 12 at Joint Base San Antonio - Lackland, Texas, for saving several Coalition Forces team members during a June 4 special operations mission."
This is the only picture I could find of the ceremony. Wish it didn't look like she's in pain and wearing the muzzle. I doubt, though, that she's bogged down with vanity.
He's smiling and giving the 'ah shucks' look.
ReplyDeleteMan, I'd love to take him for a run. . .
ReplyDeleteUh, guys, Layka is a Lady. :)
ReplyDeleteDogs are indeed man’s best friend! Layka’s story inspires me to love my dog more. It’s good to hear that Layka will be reunited with her handler and be adopted. A dog like her deserves a family that will love and take good care of her. I hope Layka’s recovering well now in her handler’s home.
