This picture and post made me tear up.

But it’s so worth it.

Dog mourns at casket of fallen Navy SEAL

From the article: “Navy SEAL Jon Tumilson lay in a coffin, draped in an American flag, in front of a tearful audience mourning his death in Afghanistan. Soon an old friend appeared, and like a fellow soldier on a battlefield, his loyal dog refused to leave him behind. ”

For everyone that treats animals with the respect due to another living being, your reward is not counted in coin, and for that it’s all the more priceless.
