Aug 25, 2010: Dog-paddling Lifeguard

[xoxoxoBruce]

The dog-paddling lifeguard is probably the lowest paid on the team.
Or the first one voted off the island, for making the rest look bad.



Kind of a hairy lifeguard, but this is Italy after all.

These incredible dogs function as a kind of Canine Coast Guard off the shores of Italy, where beaches gets crowded in the summer, and thousands of swimmers need rescuing. Here, dogs from the Scuola Italiana Cani Salvataggio (Italian School of Canine Lifeguards) practice a rescue operation. The dog pulling his friends does this in real life with rescued humans aboard.
