Trakr. Love that name.

God Bless Trakr and keep his offspring safe. These dogs do a great service.

That just brought tears. I lost my little love last September.
Trakr was more than a dog to this man as mine was to me.

They are indescribable animals. Thanks

Thank you Mr. Symington for bringing Trackr to help in the rescue efforts! I'm sure the woman Trackr found, will be eternally grateful.

What love between a man and his dog. What a great picture
of two 9/11 heroes. May we never forget what they did for US!
