Working dogs are trained to perform specific tasks such as detecting bombs or assisting a visually impaired person. In most cases, the dogs are breed to promote particular physical characters such as herding dogs.
Read the recently published children’s picture book on this topic, then learn more at the websites:
CADI: THE FARM DOG by Lisa M. Gerry is part of the new DOGGY DEFENDERS series celebrating the experiences of real-life working dogs. Each book explores a different type of dog such as the fire dog, therapy dog, police dog, and search dog. Cadi is a farm dog that protects farm animals and assists humans. Each two-page spread contains colorful photographs and engaging, easy-to-read text. The book concludes with information about Cadi and his human family.
WORKING DOGS is a short video from National Geographic that introduces the concept of working dogs to viewers. A YouTube search for particularly types of working dogs returns lots of videos.
