The bravery of those dogs was amazing!
Bravo have done more for us humans in every capacity that could ever be imagined

These wonderful dogs have saved so many lives, even in [ea.rthqu.akes and To.rna.dos]…
They Held a Ceremony at the Site. He Didn’t Know What the Ceremony Was. He Knew What the Smell Was. He was sixteen years old — He was the last one.
The last surviving search dog from September 11th, 2001. They held a ceremony at the site on the anniversary. He walked the perimeter — He put his nose to the ground — He remembered. K-9 Bravo III was a Golden Retriever.
He had arrived at Ground Zero on September 13th, 2001.
He was two years old — His handler was retired firefighter Joseph Nwosu — who had not left the site since the towers fell
and had not slept properly since the first morning.
Bravo had worked the pile — For eight days.
He had found what was left to find — He had come back to Nwosu every evening and Nwosu had checked his paws — and Nwosu had held his face — and said whatever a man says when he is trying to thank an animal for doing something that no language contains.
Twenty years passed — Bravo was sixteen — His hips were failing — His hearing was mostly gone — His eyes — still working.
His nose — still completely, entirely, exactly as it had always been.
The nose does not age the way the body ages — The nose remembers everything.
They brought Bravo to the Memorial — The Reflecting Pools — The footprints of the towers — They held a small ceremony.
First responders. Families. Officials — Bravo walked the perimeter.
He was sixteen years old — He walked slowly — His hips — the failure showing in every step — He walked the whole perimeter.
And then — at one specific point along the edge — he stopped.
He put his nose down — He stood very still — Nwosu stopped beside him — He watched.
Bravo stood there for a long time — Nobody spoke.
“He remembered,” Nwosu said afterward —
to the reporter who had asked what that moment had been.
“I know people will say dogs don’t remember like that — I know that.
But he put his nose to the ground at that specific place and he stood there — and he didn’t move for a long time.
He’s sixteen years old — He can barely walk — But he stood there.
I don’t know what he was doing — I know what it felt like.
It felt like he was saying goodbye.
Twenty years later — To the ones he found — To the ones he couldn’t.
He stood there like he owed them something — Like he was finishing something — He’s the last one — The last dog from that day.
And he came back — And he stood there — And I held his lead and I let him take as long as he needed.
He always took as long as it needed — That was always Bravo.
Still Here. K-9 Bravo III. Ground Zero Search and Rescue.
Sixteen years old. The last one — He remembered — He came back and finished something — He always took as long as it needed.
Talk about a HERO! Dogs are some much better than we are, they dont argue, judge or hate, they forgive!with so much love!
To Bravo and all the other dogs that were involved in the rescue. We honour and salute you and your handlers. 
Respect for all and what they did
Its a story of about the dog(s) who should be remembered as well as the humans that did what they had to do during that time.
