Remembrance Day: Animals in wartime
Often the bond between animal and handler is deep rooted. Theo, a Sprinter Spaniel who searched for roadside bombs in Helmand province, in Afghanistan died of a fatal seizure hours after his owner, Cpl. Liam Tasker, was killed during a firefight. However, Cpl. Tasker’s mother insists the dog died of a broken heart. Shortly after his death, Theo was awarded the prestigious PDSA Dickin Medal, which is Britain’s highest award for bravery by an animal. Theo was the 28th dog to receive the award out of a total of 64 medals.
