Scout and another unknown dog lie among the rubble at Ground Zero,just two of
nearly 100 search and rescue animals who helped to search for survivors. During
the chaos of the 9/11 attacks, where almost 3,000 people died, nearly 100 loyal
search and rescue dogs and their braveowners scoured Ground Zero for survivors.
Now, ten years on, just 12 of these heroic canines survive and they have been
commemorated in a touching series of portraits entitled 'Retrieved'.The dogs
worked tirelessly to search for anyone trapped alive in the rubble,along with
countless emergency service workers and members of the public. Traveling across
nine states in the U.S. from Texas to Maryland, Dutchphotographer Charlotte
Dumas, 34, captured the remaining dogs in their twilight years in their homes
where they still live with their handlers, a full decade on from 9/11.
Their stories have now been compiled in a book, calledRetrieved. Noted for her
touching portraits of animals, especially dogs Charlotte wanted 'Retrieved' to
mark not only the anniversary of theSeptember 2001 attacks, but also as
recognition for some of the firstresponders and their dogs.
' I felt this was a turning point, especially for thedogs, who although are not
forgotten, are not as prominent as the human stories involved,' explained
Charlotte, who splits her time between NewYork and Amsterdam.
'They speak to us as a different species and animals are greatly important for
our sense of empathy and to put things into perspective.'
