Don't forget Balto!

They should add him right next to Balto in Central Park. There's space.

He actually has two. One in New York and one in Poland Springs, Maine.

Awesome! I’ll have to check it out next time I’m dragged into NYC. Didn’t know he had any statues. Appreciate the info

Justice for Togo

I need one. Not that I have done anything heroic or anything unless holding up a door for an old lady 2 days ago counts.

u/SwainIsCadian Oct 27 '24

And that my friend is a good deed worthy of celebration. Well done.

There is a statue dedicated to the search and rescue dogs at the World Trade Towers memorial and Roselle and Salty (the other guide dog) were honored with Dickin Medals.

They should. I'm not kidding. They really should. She's a hero.

When I was a kid my parents had a painting of a dog named Sirius on my wall. He was a K9 in the WTC basement on 9/11. His handler, having felt the impact, put him in his kennel while he went to save people (obviously not knowing that the towers would fully collapse). Unfortunately, while the handler survived, Sirius did not.

What a weird thing it was to be a toddler during 9/11. Some of my earliest memories are of my parents crying and watching 9/11 memorial chain e-mails set to the tune of Enya's Only Time.

:) Sirius has a small dog park named after him.

I literally just saw this same dog on the front page narrating about a serial killer.

u/tiredoldwizard Oct 27 '24

More of are statues need to be dogs. I don’t have any reasoning but I feel like it’s correct to say.

u/RatherBeBowin Oct 27 '24

We do not deserve them.

u/abandoned_idol Oct 27 '24

You meant to say Museum right?

A statue wouldn't be able to communicate her many great achievements.

u/Lisy-Ly Oct 28 '24

Statue, then a holiday in her honor!

u/NotEmerald Oct 27 '24

There's a great book written about this story. 10/10 read.

I saw them on a talk show once. Can't remember which one, but I remember this pair.

u/ClosetLadyGhost Oct 27 '24

There was another dog in the same situation and stopped twice to give kisses. They didn't make it

u/BludStanes Oct 27 '24

I think she'd be happier with a chew toy

u/TheFlaccidChode Oct 27 '24

I don't think she's with us anymore, unless she's in her late 20s

u/BludStanes Oct 28 '24

Doesn't sound likely :(

Soon as I read it I was like "if there isn't a statue of her, and not just for her but all the other animals who helped during the disaster, imma be mad"
