Grace, a search dog with the British army, runs toward a handler during a photo opportunity, wearing a Dickin Medal. The medal, Britain's highest award for bravery by animals, was posthumously awarded to Theo, a bomb-sniffing army dog, following a special ceremony at Wellington Barracks in central London. Theo, a springer spaniel, worked alongside Lance Cpl. Liam Tasker, searching out roadside bombs in the Taliban stronghold of Helmand province in Afghanistan. Tasker was killed in a firefight with insurgents in March 2011, and Theo suffered a fatal seizure hours later.
