My mother is my hero. I admire to her, Teresa is very hardworking and Smart.

When he was just two months old, Cassius went* to school and then he started
working. Cassius is a work dog and his job is finding people after disasters*. During
disasters, buildings sometimes fall down with people inside them. They can’t get out.
Often they cannot move or call for help. They are trapped*. Friends, neighbors, and
the police try to find them, but people are not very good at this work. Dogs are very
good at it. Cassius can smell the people who are trapped inside buildings. When he
smells a person, he stops and sits. This tells the police where to look.

This work is difficult and dangerous. Sometimes a part of a building breaks and falls
while Cassius is working. Cassius helped find people after the earthquake* in Haiti in
2010. He helped save a man’s life. The man was trapped under some rocks, but
Cassius found* him. The police pulled the man out. When he does good work like this,
he gets a hot dog. After his work in Haiti, he won* an award*.

Psycho is another hero. He is very small—only ten pounds (4.5 kg), but he is very
brave. His owner’s granddaughters were playing outside in the garden. One of the
girls looked up and she saw a rattlesnake*. She was scared. The snake was going to
bite her, but Psycho saw* it first. He quickly jumped in front of the girl. The snake
didn’t bite the girl. It bit* Psycho. He saved her life. There are many other brave and
hardworking dog heroes like Cassius and Psycho.
