Canine heroes

In 2018, Baskar N (42), a resident of Chennai converted his passenger auto into an exclusive ambulance for stray animals, and named it ‘Help Voiceless’.

As the Indian Army's Dog Squad prepares to march down Rajpath this Republic Day, it is time to look back at and honour some canine heroes, fierce and ever loyal to our soldiers in uniform. We name and salute some of these legendary dogs here.
