The life saving dog

Surf Lifesaver Dogs in NZ?


Thomas Yule has been training an enthusiastic new lifeguard named Ted, but he’s not your typical beach rescuer – Ted is a dog!
Thomas lives in Omanu, Bay of Plenty, and is also a qualified lifeguard. Ted is a 2 year old Newfoundland, Thomas is his owner.
Water rescue dogs have become very successful in other countries, although mainly in still water such as lakes and rivers. The success of internationally water dogs encouraged Thomas to suggest a similar programme in New Zealand for surf lifesaving.
Water rescue dogs like Ted wear special life-jackets with handles attached for people to hold onto while the dog tows them in.
Depending on the situation, the dog would be accompanied by a handler who would help calm the swimmer or begin first aid while the dog pulls them to shore. However water rescue dogs are also trained to rescue swimmers on their own.
When he is fully trained, Ted will be able to swim 3-5 km at a time and tow about 12 to 14 people consistently through the waves and will also be able to jump safely from rocks and boats.
Ted is a huge lover of water and enjoys swimming. His sister is also beginning her training to become a water rescue dog.  What do you think of this idea?
