Yorkie Doodle Dandy is Corporal William A. Wynne's story about Smoky a tiny Yorkshire Terrier found in a New Guinea foxhole during World War II. Smoky helped save the lives of servicemen who were faced with imminent airfield attack. Wynne's own life was spared while under a shipboard kamikaze attack--led by Smoky. Smoky is credited internationally for her therapy work in hospitals and care facilities. Post-war Smoky continued therapy work and performed on live television with Bill as trainer. Smoky ultimately proved to the world the therapeutic value of dogs to people during war conflict and recovery as well as in friendship entertainment and hope.
