It’s a long way from the picturesque Irish city of Cork to the ruins of Borodyanka, going on 2000 miles if one cares to check. After convalescing for a few weeks in Budapest he and Cooper were back on the road and their mission to Borodyanka. I asked him how his role here in Ukraine compared with other search and rescue missions he had undertaken? “Well, we’ve been here going on three months now, and I guess we're more integrated into the community, O’Keeffe explains. Once back in Ireland he hopes to continue fund raising for Ukraine and though Cooper will be retired as a young dog, he hopes to take him round schools to tell the story of Ukraine.
