Good luck to them
A man and his beloved dog have qualified to find missing persons after almost three years of training.
Alan, who is affectionately known as Al, said: “I have a lifetime love of dogs and have always been around them. I was overjoyed and overwhelmed passing our final assessment.“It was such a rocky road as we started our journey right at the beginning of lockdown, so that alone presented many challenges. Holly is a natural! It was me that needed to learn everything.
He and Holly were under constant assessment to meet the high standards and were then invited for a final assessment at the Lake District, which involved three days of intense searching different areas. The three-year-old Border Collie came from a farm in Crawshawbooth. The inseparable pair have not had a callout yet as it is still early since they only qualified in January, but the duo are looking forward to using their skills to help others. They would work with agencies such as local police and other rescue teams.
