2022 New envelope Patron the Dog (search mine) with cancellation + stamp Ukraine


Patron, which means "ammo" in Ukrainian, born 20 July 2019, is a detection dog who works for the State Emergency Service of Ukraine.


He is a Jack Russell Terrier.


Patron first came to prominence during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, during which Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy awarded him the Order for Courage for his work in locating and defusing unexploded ordnance left behind by Russian troops.


Patron looks for mines and saves people. He helps the Chernihiv pyrotechnicians. Together with them, the Patron clears the demined areas. He, like a real sniffer, sniffs a small piece of land.


The Patron is not a service dog at all. Two years ago, the head of the pyrotechnic detachment of the Chernihiv region presented it to his prudent son. The dog has a pedigree, prepared for exhibitions and events. However, from the first day of the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation into Ukraine, Patron became a sapper. I was waiting for the departure of different smells of gunpowder, but I did not specifically try it in a sapper.

“The glory should be a little different, I did not expect that in the future he would show himself from the other side and the glory would come out not through the exhibition, but through mine clearing,” said the owner of Patron.


Today, the dog is recognized by its chevron body and name. He received this name almost immediately when he got to his master.

However, the dog is not a service dog and does not receive a salary.

Pyrotechnicians keep a close eye on the Patron's path, which simply never veers off to the side and helps to find a large number of standard projectiles. Only in the Chernihiv region, the Russian army left not just a scorched field, it also mined all the roads for itself.
