🐾 “Between the trenches and the horizon of peace, there walked some of the quietest heroes…” During the First World War, specially-trained dogs known as ‘mercy dogs’ or casualty dogs were sent into the worst zones of no man’s land to find wounded soldiers, carry water and first-aid supplies, and even stay with those dying so they wouldn’t be alone.  These dogs wore saddlebags, Red Cross markings, and walked a path of service and sacrifice that paved the way for modern working dogs like our tracking and scent-work champions. Tomorrow, on Armistice Day, we will honour all working-dogs in service — from battlefield companions to police and rescue K9s. Stay tuned. 🐶 If you have a dog who helps others (therapy, rescue, tracking) — share their story below and let’s honour their work together. #WarAnimalHeroes #MercyDogs #WorkingDogs #DogTraining #FabulousFinn #ThinBluePaw #ServiceDogs #Remembrance #WWI
