New enough, long enough. Clearly notable on this important dog (the last survivor of a team of four that helped round up terrorists). Supported by ample sources. Duplication and plagiarism checking reveals no copyvio or close paraphrasing. QPQ confirmed. Hook and article are neutral, and the hook is very interesting. Hook is amply supported by all of the many sources. One book I could not read, but it is one of many reliable and overlapping sources and I WP:AGF. Allez. Good to go! 7&6=thirteen (☎) 19:03, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
