These adorable canines exude a sense of camaraderie and contentment as they pose together for the camera. "Rats" the star of this image, is no ordinary dog. He gained fame during his remarkable service in Northern Ireland, where he fearlessly served for over two years with an Army border post in Crossmaglen, Co. Armagh. His dedication to duty was unparalleled, making him a beloved figure among soldiers and civilians alike. However, life took an unexpected turn for "Rats" when he suffered a heart attack last year. As a result, he was discharged from service due to medical reasons.
