Meet the avalanche rescue dogs of Mount Bachelor | Oregon Field Guide

[@Smegma_pirate]

Any dog that has a drive to do nose work can be a search and rescue dog. It’s amazing what dogs can do if the human engages their will to work.

Cute fact: the white that grows around a dog’s face as they get older is called a “sugar face”

[@beatnikmary]

I never knew that! That actually is a pretty fun fact 🙂

[@Liz-m4v]

Awwwe! I'll tell my grandma doggy!😊

[@dylhas1]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤all these beautiful and talented fur babies - they are the best!!!! But it would be kind to have them wear some warm clothing while the people are all bundled up in many warm layers 😢😢😢 !!!also when they are old l-heard 8 or 10 they should be retired … poor babies😢😢

[@phylliskress2296]

I wonder if Newfoundlands can be used as avalanche dogs. I know that they are used as water rescue dogs as well as being the "workhorses" to retrieve fishing vessels if required...

[@Millennial1031]

Golden retrievers are especially good for this

[@beatnikmary]

How do you protect their paw pads if they're in the cold snow all day? Don't they get cold, especially the golden retrievers?

[@kaylalamers950]

I was thinking the same thing. The snow gets stuck I'm the hair. There is a product though that is like a cream that seals their feet and pads to protect from cold and salt. Mabey they use that. I would also thinking that they are not out there the whole day without breaks inside to warm up. I noticed the hair in their feet was longer to, though, and not trimmed up like we would normally do. Mabey, that helps.

[@Urothewarrior]

So for sled dogs they put Vaseline on their paws to insulate them and help prevent cuts from the ice, maybe something similar for these guys

[@lloydgibson]

She a beautiful dog ware Are yous located

[@raintree3383]

On a side note....beagles would be great at this.....their brains are all nose and they will find you because they want a new friend

[@kaylalamers950]

They just don't do well in the cold or type of environment

[@MrMoosekiller31]

Ten I’d say she’s time to retire that poor hound 😊

[@balinchainly420]

I worked like 16 seasons

[@willbennett8799]

More cadaver dog less of an avalanche dog.. beacons save lives

[@tammieknuth6020]

Looks are very deceiving. dont mess or screw with them literally

[@lavenderflowersfall280]

First line of her mouth is a major turnoff LOL I just want to watch fluffy dogs save me from mountain avalanches not preachy preachy

[@afrofeast]

Why do you participate in high risk events and put dogs at risk to find you?

[@Smegma_pirate]

You my friend, are a fool of the highest degree.

[@0hn0haha]

Why do you live at all? Life is risky. Get use to it. Anything worth doing is more and more risky

[@xavierlebeau9540]

Pouahahaha

[@stevenstrapponi2262]

Most domestic dogs were bred to do a job and they live for that job. Not just sitting on your couch.

[@afrofeast]

@@stevenstrapponi2262 lol sitting on my couch🙄
