Dogs to the Rescue
Dogs to the Rescue
1 Dogs have been helping people for thousands of years, but some dogs have very special jobs. Rescue dogs are trained to find people who are lost or in danger. These smart and brave dogs work with firefighters, police officers, and rescue teams to save lives.
2 One way rescue dogs help is by finding people after disasters, like earthquakes or floods. When buildings collapse, people can get trapped under heavy debris. Rescue dogs use their powerful sense of smell to find people who need help. Their noses are much stronger than a human’s, allowing them to detect even the faintest scent.
3 Rescue dogs also help find lost hikers in forests and mountains. Sometimes, people get lost in the wilderness and can’t find their way back. A rescue dog can track their scent and lead search teams to them. This can save lives, especially if the lost person is in extreme weather or without food and water.
4 Not all rescue dogs work on land—some help in water, too! Water rescue dogs are trained to swim long distances and pull people to safety. These strong dogs, like Newfoundlands, can help struggling swimmers or even rescue people from icy waters.
5 Rescue dogs are heroes in many ways. They are fast, smart, and dedicated to helping people. Because of their hard work, many lives have been saved. The next time you see a working dog, remember that they might be a hero in disguise!
