Article Excerpt:
Sculptor Susan Norris has a long history of touching the hearts of
others through her art, but recently, she took on a new project — one
involving man’s best friend in every day life, but perhaps even more so
on the battlefield.
Titled “My Hero, My Friend,”
Norris’ newest statue is a life-size bronze sculpture of a military
working dog wearing a Purple Heart, mourning the loss of its two-legged
companion.
“I’ve
always had an affection for animals, but the bond between a military dog
and its partner is on a whole other level,” Norris said in a press
release.
This sculpture is meant to honor the bravery and dedication of a
military service dog to its human handler, tugging at the heartstrings
of passersby. The sculpture will reside at Veterans Memorial Park in
Trophy Club, Texas, inside the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.
