EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a heartwarming moment at Cruft's, the renowned dog show. The focus of the image is on V. C. Dogs, specifically Prince of East Grinstead from West Sussex, who heroically saved Hilda Bright's life. In an unexpected turn of events, Hilda had fallen into a pond and found herself in distress. It was then that Prince leaped into action without hesitation. The photograph beautifully portrays Prince as he allows Hilda to clutch onto his ear for support while barking loudly to attract attention and summon help. His bravery and quick thinking undoubtedly played a crucial role in ensuring her safety. This extraordinary act of courage earned Prince the prestigious Victoria Cross (V. C. ), an honor typically reserved for military heroes. As an Old English Sheepdog with his thick coat drenched in water, he stands tall as a symbol of loyalty and selflessness. The image itself exudes nostalgia, transporting us back to the era between the wars when such stories were celebrated by newspapers like Spratts Daily Mirror. This remarkable snapshot serves as a reminder not only of Prince's incredible rescue but also highlights the unwavering bond between humans and their loyal canine companions
