The Golden Retrievers And Mission Bretagne

On September 11, 2001 American Airlines Flight 11 crashed into the North Tower of the World Center. William Rodriguez, a simple janitor, was considered a hero because he had played an important role in the 9/11 incident. He had helped many people evacuate the building for safety. He bravely led the firefighters up the building unlocking the doors, knowing that the building could have collapsed. He kept on going up the building helping people that needed his help, and as a result, he was able to help hundreds of people survive. Heroes don’t have to be super heroes, they are people who take risk and a lot of courage to help others.

It’s crazy how something as small as someone’s beliefs can cause one of the biggest tragedies worldwide. All it took was more than a dozen terrorist, two planes, and a well thought out plan to create the catastrophe we call the 9/11 attack but they call a tremendous heroic event. This was simply an act of being at the right place at the wrong time. 9/11 could be seen all the way in space but was felt by the people in the smallest towns to enormous cities. Although the crashes on 9/11 happened in the amount 102 minutes the aftermath lasted about 99 days yet will never be forgotten among everyone everywhere. Those were truly 102 minutes that shook the world and for some it will never stop shaking.

Did you know that over 300 rescue dogs were helping at 9/11? Jonah Goldberg, the author of ‘Canines to the rescue” knows these dogs are great. I know he is in favor of rescue dogs because he knows and thinks that dogs are brave, comforting, smart and many more traits! Dogs can sniff out survivors, comfort lots of people and can fit into small places humans cannot.

Courthouse Dogs founder Ellen O'Neill-Stephens provided students with the knowledge of how dogs can bring people together by bringing along Molly Bean, a courthouse facility dog who was specially trained to calm crime victims the moment they were required to testify in court. She further

The many heroic feats we hear of from 9/11 were not only committed by the hands of emergency personnel, but also by untrained civilians. In the air, flight attendants on hijacked flights managed to retain their composure, hunt down crucial information,and make contact with airlines. Passengers fearfully rallied together and rebelled against the enemy, knowing very well that they may not even survive. The courageousness of civilian heroes on the hijacked planes may not have stopped the attacks from happening, but it did help expose the hijackers, and even saved thousands of lives on 9/11.

SGT. Canvas has worked alongside CPL. Moseley for many years. She is a combat veteran dog. She is able to detect over 70 types of explosives and bombs. Moseley and Canvas worked together for a long time until Moseley ended up losing his leg in an explosion. Moseley was awarded the Purple Heart when he returned home.

In the world, there are people who are considered to be heroes. They do not have to have supernatural abilities to be considered a hero. A hero could be an ordinary person who makes courageous acts. Martin Luther King, Chiune Sugihara, and Miep Gies all have one thing in common; they put others first before themselves. Dr. King wanted segregation and racism to be gone, so he had peaceful protests.

Here is bait dog (a dog that's used as bait to train Pitt Bulls to fight) who has obviously been tortured and abused relentlessly and a soldier who has PTSD. This dog has scars on the outside and a soldier who has scars on the inside. Then you have PawshPal. This is an organization who tries to match those four million shelter animals with those 6,500 vets and other emergency first responders for an obvious match made in heaven.

“I know we’re all going to die. There’s three of us who are going to do something about it. I love you, honey.” Were the last words Thomas Burnett Jr. said to his wife before he sacrificed himself and took the plane back from the terrorists. The plane crashed in Pennsylvania, there were no survivors. Most people only remember those that lost their lives at the World Trade Centers, but we must not forget those who fought back. Those who lost their lives fighting for the safety of the country. In this day of remembrance, we must recall what we are here for. On September 11, 2001, 2,996 innocent lives were lost, 6,000 were injured, and millions across the nation were impacted. Brothers, sisters, parents and children lost their lives to the terrorist

What's one thing you remember from your childhood? Is it the tree house you spent countless hours in; your curly haired best friend? How about the pup you went on all your adventures with? The dog that protected you from danger and licked you back to health when you got hurt. The one that slept at the end of your bed and comforted you when you had a bad dream. Countless Americans refer to their dogs as their "best friend". This doesn't just apply to civilians, however. Servicemen and servicewomen of the United States Military have been known to develop a strong bond with the animals they work alongside with. Military working dogs(MWDs) have been an immense blessing to the lives of thousands of soldiers.

I am still very much interested in this topic and plan on registering Bauer for a program, The Alliance Of Therapy Dogs International. I am still into this project because, if anything, it only increased my curiosity for therapy dogs and how they help people.

When Man Ray died in 1981 Wegman figured he was finished with the dog chapter of his life. Then on a visit to Tennessee a lady and admirer of Wegman’s work with Man Ray gave him his next Weimaraner, Fay Ray. Wegman continued his work with Fay Ray, and then after Fay Ray had a litter in 1989 her daughter Batty. “I became very attached to this dog (Batty), who got used to being around

A dog that got shot and barely survived a bullet in the spine has been reunited with the woman who saved its life three years ago.

Heroes have many goals and many challenges, but whether they are successful or not is a whole different story. Always trying their best to achieve their certain goal and risking to help others is what heroes live for. For example, during the attacks of 9/11, boat drivers such as were rescuing people from the island of Manhattan in New York. There were thousands upon thousands of people, but with enough support, the boat drivers were able to rescue everybody. Vincent Ardolino, one of the boat drivers during the 9/11 boatlift, said in the documentary “Boatlift” that he tells his children to “never go through life saying you should have. If you want to do something, do it.” This mindset is what all heroes should adopt for the future. These people may not have the most difficult job in the world, but they carry out small challenges with a lot of passion. Likewise, were the heroes during Hurricane Harvey and Irma, two very devastating Hurricanes that have costed the USA many lives. Many people from outside of the area have done countless things to help like rescue people with their boats, donate money, and help rebuild. Many of these heroes have risked their lives and struggled on for the greater good.

A week before Brody died, I thought to myself that I should groom him and make him beautiful: brush his fur, cut his claws, and cut off the matted pieces of fur that got tangled up because he drooled. I never got around to it though because I was always too “busy”. Brody was a gorgeous Great Pyrenees and had the heart made of pure kindness. His fur was as soft as cotton candy and the color of vanilla with a couple splotches of chocolate. When you pet him, your hand would disappear due to his long hair. We would use berry and coconut scented dog shampoo so he would never give off that awful stench that other dogs had. His eyes were as dark and as shiny as the night and around the pupil was the slightest gold that you would miss if you did not know it was there.
