Sage, 50mm, 200 @ f8, 200ISO. The days after Sep 11 many hundreds of service dogs were brought in worldwide to find those that were still clinging to life in the rubble, special cadaver dogs were also brought into help find anybody or parts that still remained. Without the many long lost of these dogs, as many died from cancer because of the debris they inhaled...survivors and parts would have not been found. There steadfastness still show in our service dogs today, dedicated and loyal to be trained and help when needed in times of disasters.
