RIP George

George was a fiery Jack Russel terrier that protected two children from trained fighting dogs. He defended these children until help came, but the injuries he sustained while fighting the other dogs unfortunately ended his life. He is forever memorialized in this monument, which was placed at the site of his final fight.
