Smoky was a tiny Yorkshire Terrier found in New Guinea during World War II, famed for pulling a communications line through a pipe and later for hospital visits.

Story

Smoky pulled a communications line through a narrow pipe in Luzon, reducing danger to soldiers and aircraft.

Her postwar hospital visits also made her part of therapy-dog memory.

Smoky is archived because small animal bodies can matter in very specific human-made risks.
