Summary "War Dogs of the World War" by John I. Anderson is a historical account written in the early 20th century, specifically after World War I. This book explores the vital roles that dogs played during the war, detailing their training, duties, and the emotional bonds formed with soldiers. The narrative emphasizes the heroism and loyalty of these animals in the face of war's horrors. The book is a poignant tribute to the contributions of various dogs, highlighting specific stories of bravery and sacrifice. For instance, it recounts the faithful journey of a dog named Bijou, who carried a posthumous message from his fatally wounded master back to their home. Other stories feature dogs like Monte, a picket dog, who served tirelessly to warn soldiers of enemy movements and ultimately required care for his own battle scars. Through these narratives, the text not only honors the dogs but also raises funds for their care post-war, reflecting on the deep impact of war on both humans and animals.
