A big salute to all these dogs (and others who are not featured here) for their committed service to humankind (and catkind too!).
Ginny the Dog rescued 1000 cats.
Sergeant Stubby served 17 battles in World War I. He had an aptness for detecting gas, and saved many soldiers from injury. He even alerted paramedics of men wounded in the trenches. After capturing an enemy German spy, the dog was promoted to Sergeant, becoming the first dog to be given rank in the United States Armed Forces.
