Pictures showing an Army specialist and his dog recovering in the hospital after an explosion have gone viral.

Spc. Andrew Brown and his partner Rocky were injured when the explosive device they were investigating in Afghanistan detonated.

Their unit, the 89th Military Police Brigade, said that both man and canine are thankful for everyone’s thoughts and prayers as they recover.

The recovery has gone so well, in fact, that Brown was recently reunited with his family Walter Reed Medical Center in Maryland while Rocky is expected to return to Fort Hood in Texas in the coming weeks.

“Please remember them, as well as all our Soldiers deployed around the world, during the holiday season. Proven in Battle!” the brigade added.
