In a large fashion store in central Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, a mother and her young daughter flick through T-shirts depicting a cartoon dog in a flak jacket and sunglasses.
“We have several like this,” says Tatiana, adding that they may pick up something new. “We love clothes like this so we shop here often.”
The T-shirts by Kyiv-based label J. Cook depict Patron, a Jack Russell dog skilled at finding landmines, who was awarded a medal by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in May. “I like little Patron,” Tatiana’s daughter Valeriya says, as her mother nods.
