On August 16th and 17th, Ogersardogs, at the invitation of the Vlaamse Reddingshonden (VRH – Flemish Rescue Dogs), held a training weekend in Belgium. We spent the night at a beautiful location in the heart of Huldenberg.<\/p>\n
The VRH had put together a challenging and educational program. Two deployment exercises were devised where various teams searched for missing persons in dense woodland. For us northerners, it was a good experience to search in hilly terrain with lots of brambles. The mantrailing dogs were also considered, and a beautiful trail was completed.<\/p>\n
There was also a building training session with the corresponding terrain where they also searched for victims. Finally, there was rubble training at a large recycling plant.<\/p>\n
It was great to exchange experiences and tips. We got to know each other (human and dog) better, which allows us to work together even better during joint searches.<\/p>\n
We thank the VRH for the excellent care and a fantastic weekend!<\/p>\n
