her website, that's d w dot com. ah, ah, oh valentina and her labrador. it's already our mission to become lifeguards. keeping at least beach is safe through the summer. the training at the 6 dog school ahead of a crucial exam. the training is exhausting, but the dogs seem to enjoy it. the humans to blue most of the time again and again, they pushed to their limits. will they achieve their goal? i think we'll keep practicing the technique already, but i may have just been lock. ah.

the drive to the lake is become routine for labrador it. alright. and valentina in sofa only it's just after 8 am on a sunday. the dog is wide awake and ready to go. yeah, no, absolutely. yeah, only i, my me had it's much lago de soto in the room at this time of year over my temperatures still full to one degrees celsius. solider thing really saved me last time. still the water is going to be very cold. the air or a thank that valentina regularly pools on her wet suit. she loves her dog. she started the training course to give him something to do. now she and her 4 legged friend are on track to become life gods. his harness gives it already extra

buoyancy in the water. i did it. linda visa, you agree and your uniform big boy gigante. the school is called schooler italiana . connie silva, todd chill, or 6. the short. russia is mounting on the human canine teams. the final test is in 2 months. i laura, but daniel will be starting with rescue to the way people say they've already done training on dry land. now. train out over took us bodies, exercises a, getting more difficult. today this simulating the rescue if 2 people ebay back when been data circles your dog. you quickly swim to juliano young middleton. i valentina works as a journalist. life guarding is completely new to her both. understand.

both in tant doris, she. ra, now we're swimming longer than brisbin. last time. theoretically the dogs can hold back. we've never done it before i did with this is the hostile emma could on my provider with me. oh, well well i well 9 go go, go. first they practice for basic movie. later the dog will have to stay back until the swimmer who needs help is out of harm's way. the special technique in shoes the truman and dog compliment each other. a vanilla thought, not a human life guard wouldn't managed to save 2 people there. i mean they'd have to swim out twice, which would take twice as long it wrestle. but there's

a kind of synergy between human and dog. long as the dog can also drag, 2 people to safety means that it doesn't make much difference to the dog. got in fargo. places that sorta is strong enough to pin who he pu i'm on. now the, they're very new about darby day. you have to swim, don't stop. swim while dies. are dole. ok. i'll leave off the up. it in morocco also came to life guarding through his lap pill. sophia, he has stayed experience, but only on land. he's an emergency miss. at a hospital. i'm a hunted jail, no model. it's important to be able to do something meaningful with my dog. the exercise is with me and the dog are going pretty well. yes, i mean,

but i still have to pass the swimming test. i know that he did very good darby day . you're both super motivated than i. let's not lose that. and obama try to increase the motivation even more. my god sees the info of it sample. if you lamar, you are still on at an affordable started, a still lacks enough stamina. he knows that he's currently the week amended his tain, immediately after the swim, the dogs are rewarded with some play time. oh, yeah. i see. yeah. i think until you see ambien, i think like a bebo in the water with 30 years ago through chew, polanko had the idea to make the use of animals rescue instincts. he developed special techniques and founded 6 thought

back at the lay classes. in session, roberto explains that maneuvers in the water. unlike a dancer, the human must be in perfect control of the dog to avoid chaos during our rescue. man, a la spell judge is oral by meaning a draw on the beach. you have children playing with balls, noise sandwiches, ice cream, lots of everything on it. if a dog gets distracted by that, we can't work anymore. yawning, old person for sale to laura. the only thing to do is just train, which they do in their free time. everyone here has another job. saving lives on italy. speech is something they'll do as volunteers without paid valentina, stop. you're not supposed to call him. it requires patience. and composure. i don't

believe me with the dog is focusing too much on the handler and not on the goal. the moment the handler says, let's go then the goal has to be the person calling for help it love it. so i gave you the most of the time, the problem lies with the human not being able to clearly communicate. not everyone will make it to the final exam in june. before that the humans themselves have a big hurdle to clear that i love it. your name will put the handlers through a test in the swimming pool. needless to say, that's crucial on those who pass will make the final selection on. then we'll see whether the dogs are ready. if you have old on the, on the lower granny occupant, this is the day before the sunni test and the other day morocco isn't sure he's ready. the training exercises with the fear are going well the to

work well as attain. but he struggling with challenges in the pool. get him aspect the you. but if you wait for me to prepare the food, then she waits for my command to eat. amanda love the fear drives him. he trains 3 times a week. she was just 6 months old when she did jump into a pool 6 had set up at a trade fair. started a new, it was the start of something big hit with the little. but this in, this is the video of the baptism of even selena, or the 1st time she just listen when you go to it's a beautiful memory. it is not probably about this, this was the beginning of everything i do with her to day in the course on the exam lapse in the pool, but of the lake, the called the largo it all started with this jumpy,

a thoughtful for 3 years. the to have been inseparable. he says the fear helps him to balance out his otherwise stressful, everyday life. lumber, the lights on the shelf. i brought up like we, she's my motivation and we'll go to a little but i want to give back to her. the things she gives me every day with up to join the company a la cheering up after work, little reese or law. i should make an effort to thank her to her lot. she deserves that either. i married are committing us, i'm indoors or to let them yet again, it's the day of the swimming test. i need those who pass will be allowed to continue. the course. valentina has to pass for a 2nd time. last year, the course was canceled because of the pandemic. the davida is his 1st attempt

they're both nervous, helpful. he knows he's a little bit. yes. well, you know, see it. but you have to keep your emotions under control and the test requires concentration. and you have to manage your strength is not have been without any thoughts. if answer, i'm excited. i'm going to give it my best w. o. o. first up 25 meters of underwater swimming. then the insurance phase. 8, length of freestar. 4 in rescue style facing forward. i now get out, come on all in under 10 minutes.

in between come rescue jumps and head 1st tides and when their bodies were already feeling the strain, they must swim with whites, which are hot to hold on too. but up to 8 minutes and 39 seconds. helen tina has done it. ah, the journey killa? mendota. i did it says he will make it through. but 10 won't i? oh, among those his daughter ah ah.

but i am off unfortunately, it didn't work out. i'm still too slow, i'll have to practice much more and try again next year. it's a question of training. so it's, it's not impossible to see for the all those training continues. it's now may, there are only 2 weeks until the final exam. that's when valentina will find out if all the, if fish and to sunday spent in freezing water, who has it? because of the pandemic. she's already had to wait, ease, medium, whatever that is you need, if you needed. we can't wait to be finished out. i say finished boat, really it will be the beginning. jamante, a new task out,

but for me it's taken 3 years. they don't fit, jump in there, that's a long time. what so come colorado to handle it? compress. and she the teens have to carry bags of stone weighing 8 kilograms. fairmont up the distance is a getting longer. juliano delia, such an iraq, i know it doesn't wanna go look, been jermel in castle. when you get close to the person, just say these 3 magic phrases, i'm here to help you. what is they call? give me your arm actual for that. oh, okay, but what is the dog just want to cooperate during the test? everyone will mary grove. good? oh yes, to be allowed to try again. you absolutely have to go to the person who's in trouble and help them. what do you mean? try again. if you just drop out, you'll definitely fail child. right? oh boy. okay. we need, i didn't, i don't know. now, no problem in a sense, so my,

zachary, out, they don't really have any problems anymore, and we'll gonna, there's a harmony between human and dog, where the owner goes, the dog follow, don't call nicola his gun any say with valentina and in to have made good progress, the labrador hardly leaves his side. still passing the test is by no means certain . despite the disappointment in the pool that the de morocco hasn't given up, he loves his job as a nurse, and he's well suited to helping people. he still feels ready to take his skills into the water and conquer. she brought katie lawler, rossimer. i'm going to try again next year lago. yesterday i passed the preliminary exam at the lake to somebody. so if i pass the swimming test next year,

the will is, i mean, i'll be ready for the final exam with my dog, the rhetorical reorder regression, ovula, which on have you considered giving her permission and that's not an option. it's that kind of added, it will ensure to volunteer work of 6 continuous. ah, it's the big day. the final exam at laga desoto around 30 teams to taking part time for final preparations bases on the list. the weights are here of thought. they brought us the paddle boat and in 15 minutes we'll get going the bag. okay. okay. i, i for faster get your suits on. we're starting then saw altamont, dallas go

see the would be lifeguards and now closer than ever to their goal, roberto assigns the tasks and that the person stimulation drowning? shouldn't he moving away from the shore though it is all for hell, but not so loud. the police arrive, if you think if i shouted the people from the village would come by my you, i think a bullshit, or g e, blair, me the go through if it will. the big problem for the owners today will be excitement because the dog is very sensitive to the mood of its human partner law. they this walk on bon your model. even schools found out through trip to linda has come from northern italy with his newfoundland dog reef.
