News summary

A team of specially trained dogs, primarily Labradors and Newfoundlands, is playing a vital role in lifesaving operations at Levante Beach near Malaga, Spain. Equipped with life vests, these dogs patrol the beach alongside their handlers and demonstrate remarkable abilities, including towing strength, swimming endurance, and the capacity to detect sea currents that humans cannot. They can tow life rafts weighing up to three metric tons and swim distances of up to three nautical miles, significantly enhancing beach safety. This innovative approach to rescue operations showcases how canines can effectively complement human lifeguards in ensuring the safety of beachgoers. As these dogs assist in rescues from both shore and watercraft, their presence is becoming increasingly crucial in preventing drownings along the Spanish coastline.
