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. The dog was called the Patron even before he became a switchman. He received this name almost immediately when he got to his master.

The cartridge is suitable for hard cheeses. However, the dog is not a service dog and does not receive a salary. The dog does not lag behind, understands its duties and conscientiously looks for jambs.

The cartridge works on broken Russian equipment and in mined fields. However, the search for stretch marks in the forests of dogs is still not allowed, as it is dangerous for him.

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.
