Working Dogs

Storyline

Most people are familiar with guide dogs. Rescue dogs are often seen on television. Some have been sniffed by a drug or explosive dog. But the work of dogs is much more diverse. Internationally, recognition and attention for "invisible" disabilities such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), diabetes or autism are increasing. Unfortunately, there are still many prejudices and obstacles that have to be overcome. Assistance dogs help their owners to navigate their everyday life and improve their life greatly. But this work is also a great challenge for the assistance dogs: They have to be constantly ready to react and warn in time in case of emergency.
