Bretagne is a 16-year-old Golden Labrador Retriever who spent her first deployment as a member of the Texas Task Force 1 with her mom/handler Denise Corliss searching the destruction at Ground Zero. She also happens to be the last known living search and rescue dog who served after the 9/11 attacks, and for that she received a hero's welcome back to New York in honor of her 16th birthday. Better grab a box of tissues before you watch this.

I am so in love with this video, and this very special dog.

 

 

What an amazing tribute for one amazing dog! Now I need more tissues.
