Woman: VERY GOOD!

Narrator: ALL AROUND THE WORLD,

WE FORM EXTRAORDINARY PARTNERSHIPS WITH DOGS.

[BELL RINGING]

FROM TEACHING US LIFE LESSONS...

[BARKING]

...TO HELPING US IN OUR HOUR OF NEED.

DOGS ARE OUR TRUSTED COMPANIONS,

PARTNERS THAT ALLOW US TO CONQUER OUR GREATEST FEARS.

Woman: GOOD GIRL.

Narrator: DOGS ARE SMART, LOYAL

AND EQUIPPED TO DO THINGS WE SIMPLY CAN'T.

THEIR POWERFUL SENSE OF SMELL,

THEIR STRENGTH AND STAMINA

AND THEIR UNLIMITED DESIRE TO PLAY...

Woman: GOOD BOY!

Narrator: ...HAS ENABLED US TO HARNESS THEIR NATURAL ABILITIES,

RESULTING IN AN IMPRESSIVE ARRAY OF DOGS...

Narrator: THIS IS RICOCHET.

SHE'S A THERAPY DOG WHO HELPS PEOPLE

IN THE MOST UNLIKELY OF WAYS...

BECAUSE RICOCHET CAN SURF!

AND SHE USES HER BOARD SKILLS

TO HELP PEOPLE WITH ANXIETY OVERCOME THEIR FEARS.

SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA.

A SURFER'S PARADISE.

BUT FOR SOME, THIS IDYLLIC SPOT

CAN BE AN EXTREMELY DISTRESSING PLACE.

AUDREY ESTRADA IS AN AIR FORCE VETERAN

WHO SERVED TWO TOURS IN AFGHANISTAN.

SINCE RETURNING FROM ACTIVE DUTY,

SHE'S SUFFERED FROM POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS,

AN ANXIETY DISORDER AFFECTING MANY SERVICEMEN AND WOMEN.

[HELICOPTER]

[GUNFIRE]

[EXPLOSIONS]

AUDREY BATTLES CRIPPLING BOUTS OF ANXIETY

AND STRUGGLES TO FEEL SAFE WHEN OUTSIDE.

SHE CAN'T SLEEP AT NIGHT AND HAS A FEAR OF WATER.

Audrey: I'VE BEEN GOING THROUGH THERAPY SINCE 2015,

AND THAT INTERNAL STRUGGLE IS STILL THERE.

BEING ABLE TO GO OUTSIDE AND THEN REMAIN SAFE WHILE I'M OUT

AND THEN MAKING IT BACK IS SOMETHING THAT I NEED TO DO.

Narrator: TO TRY TO DEAL WITH HER ISSUES,

TODAY AUDREY WILL BE MEETING TEN-YEAR-OLD RICOCHET

AND HER OWNER, JUDY FRIDONO,

TO SEE IF RICOCHET'S SPECIAL STYLE OF THERAPY CAN HELP.

Judy: RICOCHET WORKS A LOT WITH VETERANS WITH PTSD.

SHE'S ALERT TO THEIR ANXIETY, THEIR TRIGGERS, PAIN.

SHE TRIES TO PROTECT THEM FROM GOING INTO ENVIRONMENTS

THAT WOULD INCREASE THEIR ANXIETY.

Narrator: IF THE FIRST MEETING GOES WELL,

IT COULD BE THE START OF SEVERAL THERAPY SESSIONS.

Audrey: HI!

Judy: I'M JUDY. THIS IS RICOCHET.

NICE TO MEET YOU. Audrey: HI. NICE TO MEET YOU.

Judy: SO, I'M JUST GOING TO ASK WHAT YOUR ANXIETY LEVEL IS.

Audrey: I'M FEELING LIKE A 7 OUT OF 10.

I CAN FEEL MYSELF SHAKING A LITTLE. HA HA.

Narrator: TO HELP REDUCE AUDREY'S DISTRESS,

JUDY WANTS HER TO FOCUS ON LOOKING AT RICOCHET.

Judy: SO ONE OF THE THINGS, TOO, THAT HELPS TO REDUCE ANXIETY

IS MAKING EYE CONTACT.

IF YOU MAKE EYE CONTACT, IT RELEASES CHEMICALS IN THE BRAIN,

WHICH HELPS TO REDUCE ANXIETY.

Narrator: STUDIES HAVE SHOWN THAT EYE CONTACT

CAN INCREASE OXYTOCIN, A HORMONE KNOWN TO LOWER STRESS LEVELS.

Judy: IF YOU ARE FEELING ANXIOUS ANYTIME THROUGH THIS

AND YOU WANT TO TAKE A BREAK, JUST TELL ME.

Audrey: OK.

Judy: WE WANT YOU TO BE AS COMFORTABLE AS POSSIBLE.

Narrator: FOR AUDREY EVEN A GOING FOR A WALK

CAN BE EXTREMELY STRESSFUL.

BUT WITH RICOCHET BY HER SIDE, SHE'S WILLING TO GIVE IT A TRY.

Judy: READY? LET'S GO. Audrey: LET'S GO.

Narrator: LIKE MANY SERVICE MEMBERS

WHO RETURN FROM CONFLICT,

AUDREY HAS RETAINED A SENSE OF HYPER-VIGILANCE.

Judy: BEING IN THE WARZONE,

EVERYTHING COULD BE A THREAT THERE,

SO THEY CAN NEVER LET THEIR GUARD DOWN.

BACK IN CIVILIAN LIFE,

IT'S HARD TO SHUT OFF THAT HYPER-VIGILANCE.

SO THEY CAN SEE A BAG ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD

AND HAVE A PANIC ATTACK BECAUSE THEY THINK IT'S A BOMB.

DOGS ARE HYPER-VIGILANT BY NATURE,

SO THEY'RE AWARE OF EVERYTHING THAT'S GOING ON

IN THEIR ENVIRONMENT.

THEY HEAR IT, THEY SEE IT, THEY SMELL IT,

AND IF A PERSON WATCHES THE DOG

INSTEAD OF HAVING TO WATCH FIVE MILLION THINGS

HAPPENING AROUND THEM,

THE DOG WILL TELL THEM WHEN THERE'S A THREAT.

SO IT TAKES A LOT OF PRESSURE OFF THE INDIVIDUAL

IF THEY CAN JUST PAY ATTENTION TO THE DOG.

IF SAFETY IS A BIG THING FOR YOU,

THEN WHAT SHE'S GOING TO TRY TO DO

IS KEEP YOU AWAY FROM ANYTHING THAT WOULD FEEL UNSAFE.

I HAVE NO IDEA HOW RICOCHET DOES IT.

LIKE, HOW COULD SHE KNOW SOMEBODY'S TRIGGERS?

BUT WHATEVER IT IS THAT SHE'S ABLE TO DO, IT'S VERY POWERFUL.

Narrator: IF AUDREY CAN PUT HER TRUST

IN RICOCHET'S ABILITY TO DETECT DANGER,

SHE MAY BE ABLE TO RELAX A LITTLE MORE.

Girl: OOH, DOGGY! DOGGY! DOGGY! DOGGY!

Narrator: WITH THE BEACH GETTING BUSIER,

RICOCHET APPEARS TO MOVE AWAY FROM THE CROWDS.

Audrey: IT'S BETTER UP HERE.

Judy: BETTER WHAT?

Audrey: CALM.

Judy: YOU FEEL BETTER UP HERE?

Audrey: YEAH.

Judy: SO, IF WE TRY TO WALK BACK TO THE BEACH,

LET'S SEE IF SHE'LL GO.

COME ON, RICKY.

COME ON. COME ON, COME ON.

LET'S GO.

Narrator: RICOCHET DOESN'T SEEM TO WANT TO GO TO THE BEACH.

Judy: SHE DOESN'T WANT TO LET YOU.

Narrator: AUDREY STILL FEELS ANXIOUS,

AND RICOCHET'S APPARENT REFUSAL HELPS HER BEGIN TO RELAX.

Audrey: I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW ELSE TO PUT IT.

SHE HAS INTUITION.

SHE WAS ABLE TO DECIPHER WHAT WAS GOING ON

AND GET ME TO A CALMER STATE.

Narrator: IT'S A VERY PROMISING START.

RICOCHET IS ALREADY HAVING A POSITIVE EFFECT

ON AUDREY'S MOOD.

AUDREY IS NOT ALONE.

OVER THE LAST NINE YEARS AS A THERAPY DOG,

RICOCHET HAS HELPED DOZENS OF PEOPLE OVERCOME THEIR FEARS,

WHETHER IT'S REDUCING THEIR ANXIETY ON LAND

OR BUILDING THEIR CONFIDENCE IN THE WATER.

Judy: I ALWAYS SAY THE HEALING POWER OF THE OCEAN

AND THE HEALING POWER OF A DOG,

AND YOU PUT THEM TOGETHER, AND IT'S INCREDIBLY POWERFUL.

WELL, I FEEL LIKE RICOCHET IS ON THIS EARTH FOR A PURPOSE.

SHE IS A GIFT, AND GIFTS ARE MEANT TO BE GIVEN,

SO I GIVE HER TO EVERYONE.

I BELIEVE SHE BELONGS TO EVERYONE.

Audrey: BACK IN 2009 I GOT STUCK IN A RIP CURRENT

AND I GOT PULLED UNDER.

I HAVEN'T BEEN BACK IN THE WATER.

IT'S ALMOST LIKE THE WATER SYMBOLIZES

THE INTERNAL STRUGGLE INSIDE MYSELF.

YOU HAVE ALL THESE WAVES CRASHING,

AND IN ORDER TO GET TO THE SHORE,

YOU HAVE TO TRUST YOURSELF ON THE BOARD TO MAKE IT IN.

AND IF I CAN DO THAT IN THE OCEAN,

THEN I SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO IT ON LAND.

Narrator: RICOCHET'S FIRST ATTEMPT

AT REDUCING AUDREY'S ANXIETY

HAS HELPED HER TO RELAX ENOUGH

TO CONSIDER TAKING THE NEXT STEP IN TODAY'S THERAPY SESSION...

SURFING WITH RICOCHET.

TO DO THIS, AUDREY MUST FACE HER FEAR OF THE OCEAN.

IF AUDREY CAN PUT HER TRUST IN RICOCHET,

IT MAY TAKE HER MIND OFF THE STRESS OF HER FEAR OF THE OCEAN.

RICOCHET'S SUPPORT TEAM IS READY TO HELP.

SURF INSTRUCTOR DARREN KLASSEN OFFERS REASSURANCE.

Darren: YOU AND I ARE GONNA WALK OUT TOGETHER

INTO THE WATER, TO ABOUT CHEST DEEP.

Audrey: [LAUGHS] MY HEART'S BEATING

OUT OF MY CHEST RIGHT NOW.

YEAH, I CAN LIKE LITERALLY FEEL IT.

Darren: ONE TO TEN, WHERE YOU AT?

Audrey: UM, PROBABLY AN 8.

Darren: REALLY? OK.

SO, WHAT I WANT YOU TO FEEL IS THE POWER OF THE WAVE

AND JUST THE MOTION, AND GET YOUR BALANCE ON THE BOARD,

WHICH THAT BOARD IS PRETTY STABLE,

AND IT WILL BE ESPECIALLY STABLE WHEN RICOCHET COMES OUT WITH US.

Narrator: SURFING HAS BEEN KNOWN TO DECREASE ANXIETY AND INSOMNIA

IN PEOPLE SUFFERING WITH PTSD.

Darren: RICOCHET PROVIDES COMFORT.

THERE'S A CONNECTION

BETWEEN PEOPLE WHO NEED A LITTLE EXTRA PUSH,

OR A LITTLE EXTRA HOPE OR A LITTLE EXTRA ENCOURAGEMENT

AND A DOG.

AND I'VE SEEN IT HAPPEN ENOUGH TIMES

THAT I CAN'T QUESTION IT ANYMORE.

AND SO I KNOW THIS PLACE REALLY, REALLY WELL.

Audrey: OK.

Narrator: AUDREY AGAIN PLACES HER TRUST IN RICOCHET.

FOR THE FIRST TIME IN NINE YEARS,

SHE ENTERS THE OCEAN.

Darren: HERE WE GO!

♪

Audrey: HEY!

♪

Narrator: WITH RICOCHET BY HER SIDE,

AUDREY FOCUSES ON FINDING HER BALANCE,

FORGETS HER FEARS,

AND, FOR A BRIEF MOMENT, SURFS!

♪

IT'S AN OVERWHELMING ACHIEVEMENT.

BEING ABLE TO TRUST IN RICOCHET

ENABLES HER TO OVERCOME HER FEAR OF THE WATER.

Audrey: I WAS AMAZED AT HOW SHE BALANCED THE BOARD.

SHE WAS FEELING IT OUT.

I MEAN, I'M HUMAN, AND I WASN'T DOING THAT.

[LAUGHS] YOU KNOW!

IT WAS AMAZING.

I TOLD JUDY I WANT TO COME BACK.

Narrator: SINCE HER PTSD BEGAN,

AUDREY HAS ALSO STRUGGLED WITH INSOMNIA.

Audrey: I THINK I'LL BE ABLE TO GO TO SLEEP TONIGHT.

[LAUGHS]

I THINK I'LL BE ABLE TO GO TO SLEEP.

Narrator: THERAPY DOGS CAN OFFER PEOPLE COMFORT AND SUPPORT

IN TIMES OF EMOTIONAL CRISIS.

BUT WHEN A NATURAL DISASTER STRIKES,

THIS DOG WILL BE READY TO RESPOND TO THE CALL OF DUTY

WITH HER PARTNER.

GET OUT OF HERE! GO!

♪

Narrator: FIRST RESPONDERS FROM AROUND SANTA BARBARA

AND LOS ANGELES WERE CALLED IN TO HELP.

[SIREN]

L.A. FIREFIGHTER CYNTHIA SATO

AND HER CANINE RESCUE PARTNER ROXY WERE AMONG THEM.

ROXY IS A GERMAN SHEPHERD MIX,

AND TOGETHER THEY'RE MEMBERS OF THE CALIFORNIA TASK FORCE.

AS PART OF A SEARCH AND RESCUE TEAM,

THEIR JOB IS TO RESPOND TO MAJOR DISASTERS AT A MOMENT'S NOTICE.

ON THE DAY THE MONTECITO MUDSLIDE HIT, THEY GOT THE CALL.

[SIREN]

Cynthia: MONTECITO WAS DEFINITELY

OUR BIGGEST DEPLOYMENT SO FAR.

WE BASICALLY WENT STRAIGHT INTO WORK.

WE SAW HOUSES WITH MUD IN THEM WAIST HIGH.

WE SAW HOUSES COMPLETELY MOVED OFF OF THEIR FOUNDATIONS.

JUST IMAGINING MY HOME, MY LOVED ONES

HAVING TO GO THROUGH THAT WAS NOT AN EASY THING TO SEE.

Narrator: THE DISASTER WAS THE RESULT OF A PERFECT STORM.

A MONTH BEFORE, THE SURROUNDING FORESTED HILLS

HAD SUFFERED A DEVASTATING WILDFIRE.

THE LOSS OF TREES DESTABILIZED THE SOIL.

THEN TORRENTIAL RAINS FOLLOWED, TURNING THE HILLSIDE TO MUD,

WHICH SWEPT DOWN INTO THE COMMUNITY.

DESPITE FIVE YEARS OF ACTIVE SERVICE,

THIS WAS ROXY'S FIRST MAJOR MUDSLIDE DISASTER.

AS A SEARCH AND RESCUE DOG,

SHE'D BEEN TRAINED TO TRACK HUMAN SCENT.

BUT THIS WAS DIFFERENT.

NOTHING COULD PREPARE HER FOR THE EXTREME CONDITIONS.

THE MUDFLOW HAD DAMAGED OR DESTROYED MORE THAN 400 HOMES.

Narrator: ROXY AND CYNTHIA WERE ONE OF 39 SEARCH DOG TEAMS

DEPLOYED TO THE DISASTER.

THE FIRST DOG ON THE SCENE WAS MACGYVER,

A SIX-YEAR-OLD AUSTRALIAN CATTLE DOG,

AND HIS PARTNER, RICK STEIN.

Rick: ONE OF THE MOST DEVASTATING ASPECTS

OF THE DEBRIS FLOW WERE BOULDERS.

THERE WERE BOULDERS AS LARGE AS LARGE VANS,

AND THOSE WOULD COME THROUGH BUILDINGS

AND JUST TAKE STRUCTURES OUT.

Narrator: TO GET INTO SMASHED BUILDINGS CLOGGED WITH MUD,

FOUR LEGS CAN BE BETTER THAN TWO.

Cynthia: IT WAS DIFFICULT, BUT DOGS,

THEIR LEGS ARE A LITTLE BIT THINNER.

THEY DIDN'T GET THEIR FEET STUCK THE WAY WE DID.

WE WERE HIKING IN THAT MUD, YOU KNOW, KNEE-HIGH, THIGH-HIGH,

FOR MILES.

Narrator: IT COULD TAKE HUMAN RESCUERS WEEKS

TO CHECK AN ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOOD,

BUT DOGS CAN DO IT MORE QUICKLY,

EVEN IN EXTREME CONDITIONS.

Cynthia: THESE DOGS CAN SEARCH MILES IN A MATTER OF HOURS.

SHE DOESN'T NEED TO DIG UP THAT MUCH,

SHE CAN JUST GO IN, SEARCH, USE HER NOSE,

CHECK FOR ANY VICTIMS OR ANY POSSIBLE VICTIMS

AND THEN CLEAR THAT AREA.

Narrator: THE RESCUE TEAMS WORKED AROUND THE CLOCK

TO ENSURE NO ONE WAS LEFT BEHIND.

ROXY AND CYNTHIA OPERATED ON ROTATING SHIFTS

WITH THE OTHER DOG TEAMS.

WITH DOGS AND HUMANS WORKING TOGETHER,

THE RESCUE TEAMS WERE ABLE TO SAVE HUNDREDS OF LIVES.

♪

BUT IN THE DAYS FOLLOWING THE DISASTER,

THE WINDOW FOR FINDING SURVIVORS SLOWLY CLOSED.

RESCUE TURNED INTO RECOVERY.

Rick: IT WAS SURREAL, IT WAS HARD TO DESCRIBE.

IT WAS JUST DEVASTATING.

IT WAS DEVASTATING TO THE COMMUNITY,

TO MANY FAMILIES.

MACGYVER IS TRAINED TO FIND A LIVE PERSON

AS WELL AS A DECEASED PERSON.

WHEN HE FINDS A LIVE PERSON,

HE RUNS BACK TO ME AND SITS.

ON A DECEASED FIND, HE'LL STILL DO THAT ALERT,

BUT WHEN HE GETS TO THE SUBJECT, HE'LL DO A DOWN, LIE DOWN,

AND POINT HIS NOSE AT THE SOURCE OF THE SCENT.

Narrator: 21 PEOPLE LOST THEIR LIVES IN THE DISASTER.

BUT MANY MORE WERE SPARED

THANKS TO THE EXHAUSTIVE EFFORTS OF THE SEARCH AND RESCUE TEAMS.

BETWEEN EMERGENCY CALLOUTS,

CYNTHIA ENSURES ROXY REMAINS IN PEAK CONDITION.

Cynthia: SIT.

READY? [BARKS]

CLIMB!

Narrator: SHE'S TRAINED TO WORK

IN EXTREMELY CHALLENGING ENVIRONMENTS.

Cynthia: GOOD GIRL!

EASY...GOOD!

GO ON.

VERY GOOD.

SIT.

Narrator: ONE OF THE KEY SKILLS

A SEARCH AND RESCUE DOG MUST MASTER

IS FINDING ITS BALANCE

AND HAVING CONFIDENCE ON UNEVEN TERRAIN.

Cynthia: IF SHE SLIPS AND FALLS ON A DEPLOYMENT,

WE CAN'T JUST STOP SEARCHING RIGHT THEN AND THERE,

WE HAVE TO KEEP GOING, SO IF SHE DOES SLIP AND FALL,

SHE KNOWS, BECAUSE OF THIS TRAINING

THAT WE CONTINUOUSLY DO,

THAT SHE CAN JUST GET UP AND JUST KEEP GOING.

SO WHEN THEY'RE WORKING ON SOMETHING LIKE THIS

WHERE THEY HAVE SEPARATED RUNGS,

THEY ALSO HAVE TO BE COGNIZANT OF THEIR BACK LEGS,

SO THIS IS A REALLY GOOD EXERCISE FOR THEM

TO START LEARNING ABOUT HOW TO STEP AND WHERE TO STEP.

Narrator: RESCUE TRAINING DRILLS

CAN ALSO HELP KEEP ROXY'S SCENT SKILLS SHARP.

Cynthia: COME HERE. OK.

Narrator: IN THIS EXERCISE, ONE OF CYNTHIA'S COLLEAGUES

IS PRETENDING TO BE TRAPPED UNDER THE RUBBLE.

Cynthia: OK, HERE WE GO! HERE WE GO!

Narrator: TRUST IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT INGREDIENTS

IN ROXY'S WORKING RELATIONSHIP WITH CYNTHIA.

Cynthia: OK. THIS WAY.

SHE HAS TO TRUST ME IN ME BEING ABLE TO TELL HER WHERE TO GO,

TO KIND OF GUIDE HER TO THE RIGHT PLACE.

Narrator: BUT THE TRUST MUST GO BOTH WAYS.

Cynthia: THIS WAY.

[BARKING]

IF SHE'S BARKING AT SOMETHING

THAT I DON'T THINK THAT THERE'S A VICTIM,

I HAVE TO TRUST THAT SHE IS BARKING IN THE RIGHT PLACE

AND THAT SHE'S BARKING AT SOME THING,

SO SOMEHOW THERE IS SOME SORT OF A SCENT RIGHT THEN AND THERE.

GOOD GIRL! SHOW ME!

SHE GOT IT. GOOD GIRL!

SO TRUST IS A HUGE THING FOR US.

HEY, ROXY.

COME HERE. SHOW ME!

VERY NICE.

Narrator: LIKE MOST WORKING DOGS,

ROXY IS MOTIVATED BY THE ANTICIPATION OF A PLAY REWARD.

CONSTANT TRAINING AND TOUGH DEPLOYMENTS

HELP TO STRENGTHEN THE BOND BETWEEN ROXY AND CYNTHIA.

AND THEIR TIME TOGETHER OFF DUTY IS EQUALLY IMPORTANT.

Cynthia: WE WORK HARD TOGETHER AS PARTNERS WHEN WE'RE ON DUTY,

BUT WE ALSO PLAY HARD TOGETHER WHEN WE'RE NOT ON DUTY.

COME HERE, ROX! GIMME, GIMME, GIMME!

WHEN WE'RE PLAYING TOGETHER

IT KIND OF REINFORCES HER TOY DRIVE,

WHAT SHE'S LOOKING FOR WHEN SHE'S LOOKING FOR A VICTIM

- IS THAT TOY-- - THAT'S HER REWARD.

GOOD GIRL.

WE HAVE A LOT OF FUN.

Narrator: INDEED THEY DO!

Cynthia: I DRESS HER UP FOR HALLOWEEN EVERY YEAR!

I CAN'T EVEN TELL YOU HOW MANY WIGS I'VE PUT ON HER!

SHE LIKES IT, THOUGH, SHE DOES!

I SWEAR. DON'T WALK AWAY, ROXY!

IT'S OK. IT'S OK.

[LAUGHING]

I THINK SHE LIKES IT AT LEAST!

[LAUGHING]

Narrator: TODAY ROXY AND CYNTHIA

ARE AT THE NATIONAL SEARCH DOG FOUNDATION TRAINING CENTER.

THEY'RE HERE TO MEET AND GREET THE CALIFORNIA TASK FORCE'S

NEWEST RECRUITS ON THE DAY THEY GRADUATE FROM TRAINING.

RUFFY AND HIS NEW PARTNER, L.A. FIREFIGHTER JASON JASGUR,

ARE RUNNING THROUGH SOME FINAL DRILLS.

[BLOWS WHISTLE]

Cynthia: I JUST GOT TO SEE HIM

RUN THE AGILITY COURSE A LITTLE BIT.

HE STILL NEEDS A LITTLE BIT OF PRACTICE,

BUT, YOU KNOW, WHAT DOG DOESN'T?

EVEN ROXY NEEDS PRACTICE EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE.

HE'S KEEPING REALLY, REALLY, REALLY GOOD EYE CONTACT

WITH YOU, EVEN RIGHT NOW,

YOU KNOW, HE KEEPS LOOKING UP AT YOU.

Jason: HE'S VERY ATTENTIVE,

THAT'S PRETTY MUCH WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT

IS LEARNING HOW TO BE A GOOD HANDLER

AND THEN BUILDING A STRONG RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR DOG.

ATTA BOY.

Narrator: RUFFY WILL ALSO NEED TO GET ALONG WITH ROXY

IF THEY'RE TO WORK TOGETHER ON DEPLOYMENT.

Cynthia: GOOD GIRL, ROX.

Jason: THAT A BOY.

Narrator: FIVE YEARS AGO, IT WAS ROXY AND CYNTHIA

WHO WERE GRADUATING, HAVING ALSO BEEN MATCHED DURING TRAINING.

Cynthia: I REMEMBER GETTING PAIRED WITH ROXY

LIKE IT WAS YESTERDAY.

IT WAS THE BEST DAY.

Narrator: NOW IT'S RUFFY AND JASON'S TURN TO GRADUATE.

Woman: JASON IS WITH CALIFORNIA TASK FORCE ONE,

AND HE IS PARTNERING WITH RUFFY.

AND HE'S DONE VERY, VERY WELL SO FAR.

HE PASSED WITH FLYING COLORS.

THERE'S A LOT MORE TO COME.

THE JOURNEY'S JUST BEGUN, SO CONGRATULATIONS.

Cynthia: CONGRATULATIONS. Jason: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

Cynthia: GIVE YOU A HUG. Jason: I APPRECIATE IT.

Narrator: THE GRADUATE CLASS TODAY WILL BECOME

SEARCH AND RESCUE HEROES OF TOMORROW,

JOINING CYNTHIA AND ROXY

WHENEVER THE NEXT EMERGENCY CALL COMES IN.

Cynthia: I COULDN'T IMAGINE MY WORK LIFE WITHOUT HER.

AS PARTNERS, WE TOTALLY DEPEND ON EACH OTHER.

DON'T WE, ROXY, HUH?

[LAUGHS]

Narrator: THE STRONG BOND BETWEEN A SEARCH AND RESCUE DOG

AND ITS HUMAN PARTNER CAN HELP SAVE LIVES.

ACROSS THE ATLANTIC,

DOGS ARE SEARCHING FOR SOMETHING RATHER DIFFERENT.

FOR THIS UNUSUAL JOB, TWO NOSES CAN BE BETTER THAN ONE.

Narrator: CUMBRIA, NORTHWEST ENGLAND.

A REGION OF LUSH AND LEAFY GREEN COUNTRYSIDE

THANKS TO ITS HIGH LEVELS OF RAINFALL.

BUT BELOW THE SURFACE OF THIS RURAL IDYLL LURKS A PROBLEM.

DESPITE A PLENTIFUL SUPPLY OF WATER,

BRITAIN IS AT RISK OF DOMESTIC WATER SHORTAGES.

A NETWORK OF LEAKY UNDERGROUND PIPES

IS LOSING UP TO 20% OF THE MAINS SUPPLY EVERY DAY.

FINDING A LEAK TO FIX UNDER A VAST LANDSCAPE OF FIELDS

IS A REAL CHALLENGE,

BUT NOT FOR THIS PARTNERSHIP OF REMARKABLE SPANIELS.

SNIPE AND DENZEL

ARE THE UK'S FIRST EVER WATER LEAK DETECTION DOGS.

THEY WORK FOR THE REGIONAL WATER COMPANY.

IN ENGLAND, EVERY DAY AROUND 3 BILLION LITERS OF WATER

ARE LOST TO LEAKING INFRASTRUCTURE.

THAT'S AS MUCH AS 21 MILLION PEOPLE USE IN A DAY.

THE ENVIRONMENT AGENCY WARNS

THAT WITHOUT ACTION AND A DROP IN DEMAND,

THERE COULD BE A WATER SHORTAGE BY 2050.

TODAY THE WATER COMPANY IS SENDING THE DOGS

AND THEIR HANDLERS, ROSS STEPHENSON AND LUKE JONES,

TO INVESTIGATE A SUSPECTED LEAK

ON A MAINS PIPE RUNNING THROUGH THE COUNTRYSIDE.

Luke: DENZ! [WHISTLES]

Narrator: THE SAME SATELLITE IMAGING TECHNOLOGY

THAT WAS DEVELOPED BY NASA TO DETECT WATER ON MARS

CAN ALERT THEM TO A POSSIBLE PROBLEM IN AN AREA.

Ross: .328.

Narrator: ARMED WITH MAPS AND GPS COORDINATES,

THE TEAM WILL FOLLOW THE PIPELINE

THROUGH THE SUSPECT SITE,

BUT IT WILL BE DOWN TO THE DOGS' NOSES

TO PINPOINT THE PRECISE LOCATION OF THE WATER LEAK,

UP TO 2.5 METERS BELOW THE SURFACE.

Ross: THERE'S PIPES THAT'S BEEN LAID

AS FAR BACK AS THE 17th OR 18th CENTURY,

SO BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN LAID

AND NOT BEEN REPLACED OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT,

THERE'S GOING TO BE LEAKS, AND THEY COULD BE ANYWHERE.

Narrator: SNIPE AND DENZEL WORK AS A TAG TEAM.

TODAY, DENZEL WILL GO FIRST.

TO FIND A BROKEN PIPE,

DENZEL MUST BE ABLE TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN LEAKING WATER AND NATURAL RAIN WATER.

HE CAN DO THIS

BECAUSE OF THE WAY THE UK TREATS ITS DRINKING WATER.

PROCESSING PLANTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY

ADD CHLORINE TO DRINKING WATER TO KILL BACTERIA AND MICROBES,

AND THIS IS WHAT DENZEL AND SNIPE ARE TRAINED TO SMELL.

WHEN ROSS LOCATES THE UNDERGROUND PIPE ON THE GPS,

LUKE AND DENZEL START TO FOLLOW IT.

Narrator: DENZEL WILL SNIFF FOR THE CHLORINATED WATER,

BUT HE ALSO NEEDS TO AVOID THE MULTITUDE

OF OTHER DISTRACTING SMELLS IN THE BRITISH COUNTRYSIDE.

Narrator: DENZEL CAN'T SMELL THE CHLORINE WHILE IT'S IN THE PIPE,

BUT AS SOON AS IT LEAKS INTO THE SOIL, HE CAN.

Narrator: SNIFFER DOGS LIKE DENZEL

NEED REGULAR PRACTICE ON FINDING THEIR TARGET.

ROSS AND LUKE USE SCENT RACKS

TO KEEP THE DOGS' DETECTION SKILLS RAZOR SHARP.

Narrator: THE WATER SAMPLE IS IN THE TOP RIGHT JAR...

AND DENZEL MAKES NO MISTAKE.

Luke: YEAH, HA HA! GOOD BOY!

HE JUST HAD TO CHECK THAT IT WASN'T IN ANY OF THE OTHER ONES.

Ross: YEAH.

Narrator: TO ENSURE IT'S NOT BEGINNER'S LUCK,

LUKE MOVES THE CHLORINE POT TO REPEAT THE TEST.

WHEN INDICATING, DENZEL ALWAYS STOPS AT THE TARGET

WITH HIS NOSE ON THE SCENT.

HE WAGS HIS TAIL BECAUSE SUCCESS MEANS ONE THING.

Luke: YEAH! [DOG GROWLING]

YA HA HA! EXCITED TEETH!

EXCITED TEETH!

GOOD BOY.

Narrator: A PLAY REWARD.

Luke: GOOD BOY!

YA HA HA HA.

Narrator: TO MAKE SURE THE DOGS DON'T EXHAUST THEMSELVES,

DENZEL AND SNIPE SWITCH OVER.

♪

THE SEARCH FOR WATER CONTINUES, NOW WITH SNIPE ON THE JOB.

Ross: SNIPE! HERE!

Narrator: NO SIGN OF A LEAK SO FAR,

BUT IF THERE'S ONE THERE,

LUKE IS CONFIDENT THE DOGS WILL FIND IT.

ON PREVIOUS SEARCHES,

THE DOGS HAVE MADE REMARKABLE DISCOVERIES.

Narrator: HALF A MILE INTO THE SEARCH,

SNIPE LOOKS LIKE HE'S FOUND SOMETHING.

THERE'S NO SIGN OF ANY WATER,

BUT THERE'S NO MISTAKING SNIPE'S BODY LANGUAGE.

Luke: AH, GOOD BOY!

Narrator: THE GROUND MIC

IS A SUPER SENSITIVE LISTENING DEVICE,

WHICH CAN PICK UP THE DISTINCTIVE GURGLE

OF A LEAKING PIPE.

BUT IT'S NOT ENTIRELY RELIABLE.

Narrator: TODAY THE MIC DOESN'T PICK UP ANYTHING,

BUT LUKE IS CONFIDENT

THAT IF SNIPE THINKS THERE'S CHLORINE THERE,

IT'S LIKELY THEY'VE FOUND A LEAK.

THE TEAM REPORTS ANY POTENTIAL LEAKS

BACK TO THE LOCAL WATER AUTHORITY,

WHICH DECIDES WHETHER OR NOT TO EXCAVATE.

IT'S RESPONSIBLE FOR A NETWORK OF 42,000 KILOMETERS OF PIPES,

AND EACH YEAR IT FIXES AROUND 27,000 LEAKS.

INVESTIGATING A POTENTIAL CRACK IS A COSTLY THING TO DO,

BUT WATER NETWORK MANAGER HANNAH WARDLE

HAS FULL TRUST IN HER STAR TEAM.

Hannah: THE RESULTS THAT WE'VE HAD ARE FANTASTIC.

SOME OF THE LEAKS THAT THE DOGS HAVE INDICATED

POTENTIALLY COULD HAVE BEEN RUNNING FOR QUITE A LONG TIME

AND WE WOULD NOT HAVE KNOWN ABOUT IT,

SO WE'VE SUSPECTED THAT WE'VE HAD AN ISSUE,

BUT USING OUR TRADITIONAL METHODS

WE HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO IDENTIFY THE SPOT WHERE THE LEAK WAS.

BUT USING THE DOGS, WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO IDENTIFY THE LEAK,

EXCAVATE THE HOLE AND ACTUALLY REPAIR IT,

WHICH IS JUST AMAZING.

Narrator: IN LESS THAN THREE MONTHS,

DENZEL AND SNIPE HAVE FOLLOWED 62 MILES OF WATER PIPES,

DETECTING LEAKS THAT, ONCE REPAIRED,

HAS SAVED ALMOST 400,000 GALLONS OF WATER.

AT THE END OF THE WORKING DAY, THE CANINE PARTNERS

GET A CHANCE TO RELAX WITH THEIR HUMAN PARTNERS.

Narrator: THE SPANIEL PARTNERS USE THEIR NOSES

TO SAVE VITAL RESOURCES...

WHEREAS THIS DOG IS USING HIS LAID-BACK APPROACH TO LEARNING

TO HELP SCHOOLCHILDREN GAIN CONFIDENCE.

[BELL RINGING]

[CHILDREN SHOUTING]

WINFORD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN SOMERSET, ENGLAND.

IT'S MONDAY MORNING,

AND HEADMASTER NIK GARDNER IS ON HIS WAY TO WORK.

IT'S A COMMUTE HE SHARES WITH ONE OF THE SCHOOL'S MOST POPULAR

AND UNLIKELY TEACHING ASSISTANTS--

- A 6- - YEAR-OLD CHOCOLATE LABRADOR NAMED FERNIE.

Nik: AS SOON AS I PICK UP MY KEYS FOR SCHOOL IN THE MORNING,

HE'S THERE, HE'S IN THE CAR.

HE'S DESPERATE TO COME IN

BECAUSE HE LOVES COMING TO SCHOOL.

Narrator: FOR FIVE YEARS, FERNIE HAS BEEN PARTNERING NIK

AT THE SCHOOL TO HELP CHILDREN IN A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT WAYS.

Narrator: LIKE ALL DOGS, FERNIE HAS A NATURAL ABILITY

TO MAKE THOSE AROUND HIM FEEL MORE RELAXED.

THIS HELPS CREATE A LESS STRESSFUL ENVIRONMENT

TO ASSIST CHILDREN WITH THEIR LEARNING.

Nik: STUDIES SHOW HAVING A DOG WILL LOWER EVERYBODY'S STRESS.

JUST THAT DOG BEING THERE, THE CHILDREN CAN ACCESS THE DOG.

THE ACTION OF STROKING THE DOG

CAN HAVE A REALLY GOOD EFFECT ON THEIR MOOD.

Narrator: IT'S 9 A.M.

CLASSES BEGIN, AND FERNIE IS READY FOR HIS FIRST LESSON.

FOR MANY STUDENTS, READING OUT LOUD IN A BUSY CLASSROOM

CAN BE INTIMIDATING.

SO AN IMPORTANT PART OF FERNIE'S JOB

IS TO SIT AND LISTEN TO LESS CONFIDENT CHILDREN READ ALONE.

Oliver: "ONCE UPON A TIME, AN EVIL WITCH

HAD BEEN CAUSING ALL SORTS OF TROUBLE..."

Narrator: THIS MORNING HE'S TAKING

A ONE-TO-ONE READING SESSION - WITH 10- - YEAR-OLD OLIVER.

Nik: OLIVER REALLY NEEDS HIS CONFIDENCE BOOSTING.

THE BIT WITH FERNIE IS VERY SPECIAL

BECAUSE FERNIE DOESN'T MAKE ANY JUDGMENT ON WHAT HE'S DOING,

NOT ASK HIM TO READ IT AGAIN.

FERNIE WILL JUST LISTEN, NOT CORRECT HIM.

IT'S JUST ALL ABOUT THE BOND BETWEEN HIM AND THE DOG,

AND THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT A SPECIAL SESSION FOR HIM.

Oliver: "SO HE LEARNED TO..."

Nik: CHILDREN MIGHT NOT LIKE READING TO ADULTS,

BUT READING TO A DOG IS DIFFERENT

BECAUSE THE DOG WILL JUST LISTEN.

Narrator: FERNIE'S LAID-BACK APPROACH TO LEARNING

IS ALSO HELPING CHILDREN LIKE LOLA.

Lola: "THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHY..."

Narrator: LOLA'S MOM HAD BEEN CONCERNED

ABOUT HER DAUGHTER'S ANXIETY ABOUT ATTENDING SCHOOL.

Lola: "...EVERY CHILD BUT BERNIE."

Christy: LOLA NEVER HAD A REAL PROBLEM WITH READING,

BUT FROM QUITE YOUNG SHE WAS NERVOUS ABOUT COMING TO SCHOOL,

SO HAVING THAT CONNECTION WITH FERNIE

REALLY HELPED HER BECOME FAR LESS FRIGHTENED.

Nik: FERNIE IN PARTICULAR IS USED FOR A REWARD SOMETIMES,

SO IF CHILDREN ARE STRUGGLING COMING INTO SCHOOL,

WE MIGHT SAY IF YOU CAN COME IN MONDAY TO THURSDAY

THAT YOU CAN HAVE A SESSION WITH HIM ON A FRIDAY.

Lola: "...SECRET POWER AGAINST THE WITCH."

Nik: THAT WAS BRILLIANT! WELL DONE.

SUPER, SUPER READING.

Narrator: SPENDING TIME WITH FERNIE

HAS HELPED LOLA TO OVERCOME HER FEARS.

Lola: I LIKE READING WITH FERNIE BECAUSE HE KEEPS ME COMPANY,

HE'S REALLY SOFT AND SMOOTH, AND IT MAKES ME FEEL MORE RELAXED.

HE'S REALLY CLEVER AND HE'S REALLY COOL.

I REALLY LIKE HIM.

Narrator: FERNIE HAS ALSO WON PARENTAL APPROVAL.

Christy: I THINK IT'S SUCH A POSITIVE THING,

NOT ONLY THE READING, BUT THE COMFORT.

IT'S MULTI-LAYERED.

I'VE SEEN A DIFFERENCE IN MY DAUGHTER,

AND THAT HAS A KNOCK-ON,

BECAUSE IT MAKES THE PARENTS FEEL LESS ANXIOUS.

IF YOU CAN DROP YOUR CHILD OFF

AND THEY FEEL WORRIED AND ANXIOUS AND THEY'RE TEARY,

YOU WALK AWAY FEELING ANXIOUS AND TEARY.

HAVING A DOG THERE HAS MADE THE DIFFERENCE.

Narrator: FERNIE HAS A RELAXED STYLE OF EDUCATIONAL SUPPORT,

BUT IT TOOK THREE YEARS OF TRAINING

TO BECOME A FULLY QUALIFIED SCHOOL DOG.

Nik: FERNIE'S CERTIFIED TO WORK WITH CHILDREN

THROUGH THE CHARITY DOGS HELPING KIDS.

HE'S HAD TO GO THROUGH A SERIES OF ASSESSMENTS,

CHECK THAT HE'S NOT STRESSED IN THE ENVIRONMENT,

CHECK THAT HE'S COMPLETELY SUITABLE

FOR WORKING WITH CHILDREN,

AND THAT'S WHY HE'S HERE.

[BELL RINGS]

Narrator: FERNIE IS ONE OF 12 CERTIFIED SCHOOL DOGS

TRAINED THROUGH THE CHARITY CURRENTLY WORKING IN THE UK.

LABRADORS ARE RENOWNED FOR BEING GOOD WITH CHILDREN.

AND, AS ANYONE WHO OWNS ONE WILL TELL YOU,

THEY'RE ALSO FAMOUS FOR THEIR VORACIOUS APPETITES.

Nik: AS A LABRADOR,

HE SPENDS MOST OF HIS TIME THINKING ABOUT FOOD,

THAT'S THE ONLY SORT OF MISCHIEVOUS SIDE OF HIM, REALLY.

Narrator: BEING TEACHER'S PET

AFFORDS FERNIE SEVERAL STAFF PRIVILEGES.

ALTHOUGH NIK INSISTS HE'S THE ONLY TEACHING ASSISTANT

ALLOWED TO TAKE A NAP IN HIS OFFICE.

Nik: MIND THE CAR. RIGHT, IF WE HEAD IN...

Narrator: WHEN CLASSES FINISH FOR LUNCHTIME,

FERNIE TAKES HIS WORK OUTSIDE.

Nik: ALRIGHT, WE'LL JUST CROSS OVER,

Narrator: THIS EXTRACURRICULAR LESSON IS AN OPPORTUNITY

FOR THE CHILDREN TO DEVELOP THEIR LEARNING

AWAY FROM THE CLASSROOM.

Nik: AND SIT!

GOOD BOY.

THE POINT OF THE LUNCHTIME WALK IS

IT'S JUST A GOOD OPPORTUNITY

TO TALK ABOUT BEING A GOOD DOG OWNER,

WE CAN TALK TO THEM ABOUT ROAD SAFETY,

AND IT'S JUST LOVELY TO HAVE A CHAT

NOT ABOUT THEIR WRITING OR THEIR MATHS,

IT'S JUST NICE TO TALK ABOUT THINGS

JUST GOING ON IN THEIR LIVES.

HAVING HIM ON THE SCHOOL SITE IS A MASSIVE THING.

IF SOMEBODY'S STRUGGLING WITH SOMETHING,

THEY CAN COME AND SEE HIM FOR A BIT

AND WE HAVE A CHAT ABOUT IT.

OH, DEAR, THAT'S NOT SO GOOD, IS IT?

Narrator: IT'S ANOTHER WAY TO MAKE SCHOOL LESS STRESSFUL

AND HELPS BUILD SELF-ESTEEM.

[BELL RINGS]

IT'S THE FINAL CLASS OF THE DAY,

AND FERNIE IS TAKING A READING LESSON IN THE LIBRARY.

BUT THIS TIME IT'S FERNIE WHO WILL BE DOING THE READING.

NIK HAS TAUGHT HIM A TRICK

TO DEMONSTRATE TO OLIVER AND CLASSMATE CERYS

THAT DOGS CAN BE CLEVER ENOUGH TO READ, TOO.

WITH NO OTHER PROMPTING,

FERNIE RECOGNIZES THE WORD ON THE CUE CARD...

Nik: AND FERNIE!

Narrator: ...AND TO PROVE IT, HE PERFORMS THE BEHAVIOR.

[CLICK]

BUT HOW DOES A DOG LIKE FERNIE LEARN TO READ?

SURPRISINGLY, OUR CANINE COMPANIONS LEARN

IN A VERY SIMILAR WAY TO US.

Nik: RIGHT, AROUND YOU GO.

FERNIE CAN RECOGNIZE THE SHAPES OF WORDS,

SO IN THE WAY THAT CHILDREN

BECOME MORE ACCOMPLISHED READERS,

THEY DON'T HAVE TO SOUND OUT EVERY LETTER,

THEY CAN JUST LOOK AT A WORD

AND THEY KNOW WHAT THAT WORD LOOKS LIKE.

IT'S EXACTLY THE SAME THAT HE HAS LEARNT

TO ASSOCIATE A SHAPE OF A WORD WITH A MEANING.

IT'S JUST THE FACT WE'VE TRAINED HIM

FROM THE DAY THAT WE GOT HIM...

FERN, STAND.

...AND WE'VE WORKED ON HIS SKILLS.

IT'S JUST DOWN TO COMMITMENT,

PATIENCE AND POSITIVE TRAINING METHODS.

Narrator: NIK HOPES

THAT BY INVOLVING THE CHILDREN IN THE TRICK

IT WILL MOTIVATE THEM TO ALSO WANT TO LEARN NEW WORDS.

Nik: IF HE GETS IT RIGHT, GIVE HIM A CLICK,

AND THEN HE GETS HIS TREAT.

RIGHT, OVER TO YOU, OLLIE.

Ollie: FERNIE!

[CLICK]

Nik: WELL DONE.

Narrator: FERNIE AND NIK'S PARTNERSHIP

HAS HELPED LOTS OF CHILDREN GAIN GREATER CONFIDENCE.

Nik: SAY HIS NAME.

Cerys: FERNIE!

Nik: AND SHOW.

TO SEE HIS IMPACT ON CHILDREN'S LIVES

AND THEIR WELLBEING IS JUST GREAT.

Nik: YOU GOT IT RIGHT! WELL DONE.

Cerys: "...ON WHICH THEY HAD COME TO THE FARMHOUSE

WHERE THEIR MOTHER HAD TAKEN LODGINGS AND..."

Narrator: THE READING SESSIONS ARE HAVING A POSITIVE IMPACT

ON CERYS'S CONFIDENCE, TOO.

Cerys: THERE'S A CONNECTION BETWEEN CHILDREN AND DOGS

AND HOW THEY FEEL DIFFERENT WHEN THEY'RE READING TO AN ADULT.

FERNIE, HE LISTENS TO YOU.

Narrator: FERNIE HAS EARNED HIS PLACE

AS ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR MEMBERS OF THE SCHOOL.

Nik: FERNIE HAS BEEN COMING TO SCHOOL

FOR ALMOST FIVE YEARS NOW,

AND OVER TIME WE'VE JUST SEEN THE WAY THAT HE CAN BE USED

FOR THE BENEFIT OF EVERYBODY.

HE'S ABSOLUTELY SO PART OF OUR STAFF TEAM NOW

THAT WE JUST COULDN'T IMAGINE LIFE WITHOUT HIM.

Narrator: CREATING ENDURING PARTNERSHIPS WITH DOGS

ENABLES US TO CHANGE LIVES.

WHETHER IT'S WORKING TOGETHER IN TIMES OF TROUBLE,

BUILDING OUR CONFIDENCE

OR HELPING US SOLVE PROBLEMS,

OUR CANINE COMPANIONS REALLY ARE MAN'S BEST FRIENDS.
