Good evening,
We are from Ukraine!

Meet Patron the mine-sniffing dog


Patron, who was professionally trained by cynologists, is supposed to be performing in public exhibitions, showcasing how dogs can be formally trained to conduct specific tasks.

But more than month after the first Russian bombs fell on Ukraine, and after Ukrainian soldiers successfully pushed back Russian forces and liberated formerly-Russian occupied towns, Patron started to learn how to sniff out mines. Now, Patron works around the clock to find unexploded weapons in the town and surrounding area of Chernihiv.
