Sigourney Weaver and the Dogs of 9/11

Sigourney Weaver in Esquire’s What I’ve Learned:

I volun­teered to serve food to the work­ers at Ground Zero after 9/11. There were dogs trained to find liv­ing people. The people who worked with the dogs became wor­ried because the day after day of not find­ing any­one was begin­ning to depress the anim­als. So the people took turns hid­ing in the rubble so that every now and then a dog could find one of them to be able to carry on.
