Portraits of 9/11 Rescue Dogs

A book released on the tenth anniversary of 9/11, Retrieved, tells the story of the remaining search and rescue dogs that are living out their retired days after spending days at Ground Zero searching for survivors after the attacks. These are the lucky few who are still alive 10 years later.

Gosh, I wish animals could talk. I would love to hear these dogs' stories.

Their presence brought hope and comfort to those enduring hours of depressing labor during rescue and clean up efforts.






All dogs go to heaven.

May these heroic souls never be forgotten.

I'm write there with you! I believe with all my heart all my dogs that aren't here with me anymore are in heaven. Glad I'm not the only crazy animal lover :) I told Chris the other day that if I didn't teach I would definitely do something with an animal shelter :)
