Kyiv: Ukraine President Volodymy Zelenskyy has honoured the bomb-sniffing dog who uncovered about 150 munitions as part of a team of State Emergency Service. The President presented Patron, a Jack Russell terrier mix, and his owner Myhailo Iliev, with the state award “For Dedicated Service” at a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. During the Sunday ceremony, Trudeau appeared to be searching his pockets for treats for Patron but failed. The SES said that the dog was “extremely pleased to meet a true friend of Ukraine…even though Mr. Trudeau did not find a piece of Patron’s favorite cheese.” According to CNN, Patron has become a national figure since the Russian invasion for his work with bomb disposal teams in the northern city of Chernihiv.
