　　一．導聾犬hearing dog

　　Hey sleepyhead! It’s time to wake up! It’s time to get out of bed. I’m not just playing games with her, this is my job, I’m a hearing dog. My owner is deaf, she can’t hear anything. This can be very dangerous! For example, what if there’s a fire, and the alarm goes off? She can’t hear it! I’ve got to go warn her! Hey! There’s a fire! Get out of the house to a safe place. On my team are many dogs, just like me, and we have to be specially trained before we can go on duty. Not just any dog could do this job. We provide an important service for those who need help. For the hearing impaired, we “man’s best friend”

How many dogs get to ride a motorcycle to work! Here’s my work photo! Actually I’, in the entertainment business. My job is to make the patients in this hospital happy! To cheer them up. And if I do a good job, people pet me. They like me! Okay, I’m off to cheer up another patient! It’s a great job. You could say I’m really a “lucky dog!”.

　　三．地震搜救犬

　　Hi folks, I’m what you might call a “white dog-collar worker”. You already know what my job is. My job is to search for things. I spend my time each day among these rocks and ruins, searching for lost people. Hey, I think it’s right here. Everyday my dog friends and I go through a strict training schedule. The younger puppies also have to learn the ABC’s of search dog technique. Sometimes the tasks they give us are really hard. We have to climb under these things, and we even have to climb ladders. Sometimes at the end of the day, I’m just “dog tired”, but it’s worth it, because my job is really important.

　　They warm up the seats,

　　and I lay on them.
