"Coffee" gave birth to eight puppies safely.
"'Coffee' is a Labrador retriever, 3 years old this year, and this is his first time giving birth to a dog. It has a very sensitive sense of smell and is suitable for search and rescue dogs, such as wide-area search and rescue, tracking and search and rescue, which are excellent. Zhang Yuzhong, the captain of the Sunshine Rescue Team, said that because the coat color of "coffee" is coffee, it is named "coffee". "Coffee-colored dogs belong to the noble breed among Labradors and are few in number. Unexpectedly, 'Coffee' gave birth to 8 puppies, which is also a happy event. Zhang Yuzhong said that "Coffee"'s father is also a search and rescue dog.
Search and rescue dog "Coffee"
"Coffee" has a docile personality, is smart and clever, has undergone professional training, and has participated in rescue activities many times. "Once an old man got lost, and we went to search for 'coffee' all night. Thanks to the 'coffee', I was able to find the location of the old man and successfully found the old man. ”
Previously "Coffee" was trained.
Zhang Yuzhong introduced that there are currently trainers who take care of "coffee" and cubs 24 hours a day. "Look at the big dog to prevent the small dog from being crushed. Some puppies eat too much, and some puppies can't, so they will change them to ensure that the puppies are fed, and they also prepare nutritious meals for 'coffee'. Zhang Yuzhong said that search and rescue dogs will be selected among the children of "coffee".
"Not every dog is suitable for search and rescue dogs, and some dogs are born aggressive. Then you can't be afraid of people, it's all about slowly finding out if there is a problem during the training process. "After the puppy is full moon, there will be obedience training." Choose while taking them. The training programs are different, some are simple, some are more difficult. Not every search and rescue dog has all search and rescue functions. "In the process of training, we will focus on teaching according to the area that the dog is good at.
