The
K9 above is Brutus, a military K9 at McChord.... He's huge - part Boxer 
and part British Bull Mastiff and tops the scales at 200 lbs. His 
handler took the picture.
Brutus is running toward me because he knowsI
have some Milk Bone treats, so he's slobbering away! I had to duck 
around a tree just before he got to me in case he couldn't stop, but he 
did.
Brutus was the recipient of the Congressional Medal of Honor last year 
from his tour in Iraq . His handler and four other soldiers were taken 
hostage by insurgents. Brutus and his handler communicate by sign 
language and he gave Brutus the signal that meant 'go away but come back 
and find me'.
The Iraqis paid no attention to Brutus. He came back later and quietly 
tore the throat out of
one guard at one door and another guard at
another door. He then jumped against one of the doors repeatedly (the 
guys were being held in an old warehouse) until it opened. He went in 
and untied his handler and they all escaped. He's the first K9 to 
receive this honor. If he knows you're ok, he's a big old lug and wants 
to sit in your lap. Enjoys the company of cats..
