Lia, the new rescue dog: Hope carrier on four paws!

The emergency dog ​​work in Lower Austria is given a new promising growth: the nine -week -old Labrador dog "Lia". She goes into the hands of Karin Kuhn, who has already had over 27 years of experience in the training of emergency dogs. Karin, who launched the "Lower Austria rescue dogs" association, is now positive that Lia will also take her place in the series of rescue dogs. As reported by the Meinzirk.at portal, training as a mantrailer has already started, and Lia already shows great ambition in training.

training as a key to rescue

Training as a rescue dog is an intensive process that takes around three years. During this time, the dog learns to pursue traces of odor - an essential ability when it comes to finding missing persons. One day Lia will take on the role of "Gillie", which is an experienced rescue dog with over 300 missions. As Stefan Tucek, head of operations of the Lower Austria emergency dogs, states, the well -founded training for Lia will be decisive in order to be able to act reliably in pressure situations. Such missions are often the search for demented people or missing children, whereby the alarm is possible at any time, without costs for those affected.

Karin Kuhn, who is not only responsible for the training of dogs, but also for training the dog handlers, brings a comprehensive concept into training. In an interview on mantrailer.at, she emphasizes that individual approaches and the right motivation are decisive in order to optimally bring out the strengths of every dog. Fortunately, the quality of training through continuous cooperation with international experts is secured, which results in a steady improvement in rescue dog work. Her commitment goes far beyond dog sports, because for Karin the saving of human life comes first.
