A medal? I bet Buster would be much more happy with a doggie treat.

Dicken Medal - sounds like something that requires a female dog so the winner has something to put his...well, you get the idea...

The British army canine received the Dickin Medal

I had a randy male dog that I kept indoors. Had I let him run loose, he would have qualified for a Dickin Medal, big-time.

So when can we expect to see his biography and watch on the morning talk-shows, like Jessica Lynch?

Buster, a six-year-old Springer spaniel...was awarded Britain's highest animal bravery medal for his role in breaking a resistance cell in Iraq.

Surprising the bad guys, who didn't know dogs were secret US weapons of mass affection and loyalty.

Wonder what the Moroccan landmine monkeys get?

Rub dead Iraqi's in pig fat and let the dogs eat em. He';d like that better than a medal.

I haven't yet figured out how to do tag lines, and I've looked.

I think mine would be: My dog is the best bitch I know.
