During the chaos of the 9/11 attacks, where almost 3,000 people died, nearly 100 loyal search and rescue dogs and their brave owners scoured Ground Zero for survivors.
Now, ten years on, just twelve of these heroic canines survive, and they have been commemorated in a touching series of portraits entitled Retrieved , by photographer Charlotte Dumas.

View_From_Here sent me this touching video about a guide dog and his owner. Both were inside the North Tower when the plane hit.
These beautiful creatures don't know anything about terrorism and don't understand the horror people can inflict on each other.
I don't understand it either and wish it had never become part of our lives.
