salutes a pack of heroic pooches with some help from Happy the Dog

Days of Our Lives star Alison Sweeney recently attended the 2018 Hero Dog Awards in LA, where she posed with the Hallmark Channel’s Ambassador of Paws-itivity, Happy the

Dog. The event celebrates ordinary canines who do extraordinary things, like one of this year’s honorees, Sgt. Fieldy: The 11-yearold black Lab served three tours of duty in Afghanistan for the U.S. Marine Corps, working tirelessly to detect explosives. Sgt. Fieldy retired in 2014 and was adopted by his handler,

Cpl. Nick Caseres. Says Alison, “It is always such an honor to celebrate such incredible heroes — on both ends of the leash.”
