Beautiful Dog! GSD's are my favorites. That isn't the VC though. I didn't look up what the medal is but I know it's not the VC. The UK is more strict about awarding the Cross than the USA is with the MOH. That's pretty danged strict!

Someone said "Nothing like 100 lbs of pi$$ed off German Shepard to deter would be burglars". Works much better than a gun!

It's the British Dickin Medal, created specifically for animals; so much for the Post's research dept.

But...but...but they are of the "elite intelligentsia"! It is their RIGHT to tell the rest of us what to do and what to think. Besides, they have "multiple layers of fact checkers". Just ask 'em, they'll tell you! BTW, the Post said that Hillary! would win in a landslide!
