ultrafacts:“Responding to New York City was our first deployment,” Carliss, of national disaster group Texas Task Force 1, told BarkPost of their mission to provide relief to the first wave of 9/11 responders.Bretagne was just 2 years old at the time and as Carliss recalled, her playful-puppy demeanor paid off.Upon first catching sight of the immense destruction, Carliss said she was momentarily stunned. Her trusty companion on the other hand, couldn’t wait to dive in.“I just couldn’t believe the magnitude and then I looked down at her and she seemed stoked and ready to work,” Carliss recalled.As their relentless, 12-hour days went on, she said their work went from search and rescue to recovery efforts.Throughout the physical and emotional turmoil, Bretagne often took it upon herself to serve as a comfort to firefighters and first responders. With a nudge of her snout she’s credited with breaking the strongest stone faces.That included Corliss’.“I was just so grateful to have a canine partner that helped me get through it,” she recalled. New York City recently threw Bretagnean adorable sweet 16 birthday party. SourceFollow Ultrafacts for more factsDamn my allergies! -- source link
