A Golden Retriever who helped rescuers search Ground Zero of the World Trade Center in the aftermath of 9/11 is being honored on the 14th anniversary of the terror attacks.

New Yorkers hosted Bretagne (pronounced Brittany) at a Central Park hotel and threw a 16th birthday party, which translates to about 100 in dog years.
