1/3 Ricky the rat terrier was the smallest dog to deploy to Ground Zero. He was 17” tall and weighed just 18 pounds but he was fearless! And his small size was a huge asset. Ricky was able to travel through small areas where other dogs or people couldn’t fit.

2/3 Ricky came from Washington state along with his handler, Janet Linker. He worked for ten days straight. Ricky retired from SAR work about a year after 9/11. He retired to the quiet country life where he lived for years as a family pet until he was attacked by a coyote.
