Patron, a Ukrainian Jack Russell Terrier, gained popularity in 2022 when he cleared mines from fields, buildings, and city streets together with sappers from the Chernihiv Regional State Emergency Service (DSNS). In May 2022, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy even awarded Patron with the medal "For Dedicated Service".
Judging by the content of his personal page, Patron is still serving, although the peak of his media presence, which fell in 2022, has long passed.
