IT'S SAD, SO SAD, WHAT A SAD, SAD SITUATION.

A British soldier, Lance Corporal Liam Tasker, was inseparable from his bomb-sniffing Springer spaniel, Theo. Together they forged a formidable record of finding IEDs that could have killed. Tasker was shot by a sniper, after which Theo returned to his kennel. A few hours later, Theo died of a seizure. Tasker's dad reflects:
"My honest opinion is, when LIam went down, Theo did not have the comfort form Liam to calm him dowm. I truly believe that when Theo went back to the kennel, that would have a big, big impact because Liam was not there to comfort him." How tragic!
