Hundreds of search and rescue dogs worked vigilantly at the World Trade Center and Pentagon after the September 11, 2001 terrorist acts, and one gave his life that day. Our hearts and love go out to our dear canine soldiers.

A German policeman with a sniffer dog searches a Munich Oktoberfest tent for explosives, September 22, 2001. The world's largest beer festival started today with tighter security following the attacks on the United States, as authorities seek to reassure visitors that risks are minimal. The 16-day festival, itself the target of a bomb attack in 1980 that killed 13 people, was threatened with cancellation last week after the plane attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon.
