Canine Soldier

Timothy, an army explosive sniffer dog, wears the helmet of a soldier who placed it on his head at the site of a car loaded with explosives that was detonated by an army anti-bomb squad in Pradera, southwestern Colombia in 2012.

War Zones around the world

where man and dog work together

braving bombs and poisonous gas

plus snipers in all types of weather

they`re emotionally connected

and support their military squad

fighting against great tyranny

and enemies serving their god !

comrades in arms against the enemy

braving shrapnel from a bomb blast

each dog remains with their handler

doing more then they have been asked

the trust that is found between them

a bond that will not be betrayed

companionship that`s the strongest

 at rest or defending the blockade

for man and dog united in a cause

standing proud together in armour

as they risk their lives to protect

serving our great country with honour
