Rescue Dog Throws Himself From Helicopter Into Giant Waves To Save Lives

Finding yourself trapped in the water without a way to save yourself can be a life threatening situation and when these situations come about, it can be to find a large and furry animal to hold onto until help is finally able to arrive.

Did you know that there are special dogs who are specifically raised in order to accomplish this very goal? Thanks to this story, you finally get to meet one of these special dogs for yourself.

The man in this story was more than happy to see the dog swimming towards him and this animal provided him with the lifeline that he needed most.

Once he was able to latch onto the dog’s body, he was lifted up by the helicopter and the two were rescued from the waters. This amazing rescue was the product of a drill that the dog had been undergoing for months.

These drills are conducted by the good people at the Italian School Of Water Rescue Dogs and the dogs are trained from the age of three months to perform a wide range of training exercises.

They are given the tools that they need to conduct rescue missions like the one that you are about to see and thanks to the efforts of their trainers, most of the animals pass with flying colors.

The Newfoundland is an especially useful breed for these sorts of rescue missions, owing to their advanced swimming skills and their webbed feet.
