Hi, welcome to Animals At Work. One of the most extraordinary... Argh! | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
SNAKE HISSES | 0:00:04 | 0:00:05 | |
Around the world, there are millions of animals that have jobs. | 0:00:06 | 0:00:10 | |
This is the show that brings you the most extraordinary, | 0:00:11 | 0:00:14 | |
bizarre and unusual animals at work. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:17 | |
Coming up next... | 0:00:17 | 0:00:19 | |
What, are you just gonna leave me here? | 0:00:19 | 0:00:22 | |
Top crime-fighting duo Lucky and Flo sniff out illegal DVDs. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:26 | |
I would put them in the superstar bracket... | 0:00:28 | 0:00:30 | |
Will Bear the trainee lifeguard instructor get to graduate? | 0:00:31 | 0:00:35 | |
And Pigasso the artist does his first ever piggy painting. | 0:00:38 | 0:00:44 | |
-What do you think of this? -He pooed. -He has. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:46 | |
And there goes the dog. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
Hi, and welcome to the show. So do you fancy yourself as a film critic? | 0:01:04 | 0:01:08 | |
Think you're good at spotting a RUFF DVD? Think again. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:11 | |
Because there are some mutts in the movie business | 0:01:11 | 0:01:13 | |
that can sniff out a bad picture at ten paces. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
Let's hope they don't get their paws on some of my howlers! | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
It's an open-and-shut case of police canine action | 0:01:19 | 0:01:23 | |
as we join some crime-busting animals at work. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
First, we're off to a secret location in England. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:34 | |
Meet Lucky and Flo, a couple of super sniffer dogs | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
that live to whiff out illegal DVDs. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:47 | |
So far this crime-busting duo have tracked down | 0:01:47 | 0:01:51 | |
£3 million worth of illegal DVDs and helped put 26 criminals behind bars! | 0:01:51 | 0:01:58 | |
Lucky and Flo are four-year-old Labradors. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:03 | |
They're the first dogs in the world trained to find DVDs. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:07 | |
To be exact, they sniff out the plastic, called polycarbonate. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:12 | |
They've now had a period of rest and a holiday really, | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
and we just need to bring them back up to speed. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:19 | |
Illegal DVDs are a big problem. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:21 | |
Not only do they cost the UK and North American film industries | 0:02:21 | 0:02:25 | |
billions in lost sales, the cash from dodgy ones | 0:02:25 | 0:02:29 | |
often gets funnelled into crime. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
And that's where Lucky and Flo come in. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
They may eat, sleep and sniff out crime together, | 0:02:35 | 0:02:38 | |
but they have very different personalities. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
Lucky just wants someone to throw something to her. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
Flo would want someone to stroke her as well. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:46 | |
I would put them in the superstar bracket. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
Even though Lucky and Flo are natural-born sniffers, | 0:02:49 | 0:02:54 | |
their training is tough but also has to be fun. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
The dogs are shown a particular smell, | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
in this case, the polycarbonate from a DVD. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
Once they find the smell, they're rewarded with a tennis ball. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:09 | |
Using a ball as a reward is ideal for training Labradors. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:14 | |
By linking a successful sniff with a game, | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
work becomes fun for these frisky Labs. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:20 | |
Her brain click in to remembering the smell that gets her the toy | 0:03:20 | 0:03:24 | |
and that's what's going through her head - | 0:03:24 | 0:03:27 | |
is that smell out here in this field somewhere? | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |
It's the same process with a bomb dog or a drug dog. | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
The only difference with them is that they've probably got four or five | 0:03:32 | 0:03:36 | |
different smells to remember whereas she's only got one. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
And sticking to just one smell has helped them become | 0:03:39 | 0:03:43 | |
a crack crime-fighting team, as well as best mates. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
They've got on famously from the day they met. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:49 | |
It's almost like they were long lost friends who'd been brought together. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:52 | |
The Labrador retriever is a very, very social dog, | 0:03:52 | 0:03:55 | |
both towards other animals and towards people. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
It's very difficult to say if there is a leader with these two. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:03 | |
They seem to get on so well together that neither one is dominant. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:07 | |
Flo is the steadier dog | 0:04:07 | 0:04:09 | |
and wants to please and wants to do the job, but the drive in Lucky is, | 0:04:09 | 0:04:12 | |
whether we were here or not, she'd be playing with that ball. | 0:04:12 | 0:04:16 | |
It's just the desire to play, to carry, to fetch... | 0:04:16 | 0:04:23 | |
This dog's just got everything. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:26 | |
MUSIC: Theme from Hawaii Five-O | 0:04:32 | 0:04:35 | |
These special forces canines | 0:04:39 | 0:04:41 | |
come from a long law-enforcement tradition, | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
and Labradors are top choice for top dog. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:48 | |
Most police forces and other agencies that use search dogs | 0:04:48 | 0:04:52 | |
tend to go for either the Labrador or springer spaniel. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:56 | |
They're bred for their nose work. They're compact. They're energetic. | 0:04:56 | 0:05:01 | |
Both dogs have a track record of finding so many illegal DVDs | 0:05:01 | 0:05:05 | |
it's made them some enemies in the criminal underworld. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:09 | |
There's now a 30,000 bounty on their heads to kill them. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:12 | |
We have to be very careful with their security as a result of that. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:16 | |
Does it worry them? We haven't told them about the bounty, | 0:05:16 | 0:05:19 | |
so they don't know anything about it. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:22 | |
MUSIC: Theme from Batman | 0:05:22 | 0:05:23 | |
This super canine combo, with a £20,000 target on their heads, | 0:05:23 | 0:05:27 | |
are protected with extra security. | 0:05:27 | 0:05:30 | |
And they're going to need it, | 0:05:30 | 0:05:32 | |
as they're about to face a new challenge - | 0:05:32 | 0:05:34 | |
their first crime-busting assignment in the UK. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:39 | |
We're staying in England to go to the Cotswolds. | 0:05:44 | 0:05:48 | |
This is Bear and he's a trainee lifeguard instructor, | 0:05:53 | 0:05:57 | |
training young people how to be lifeguards | 0:05:57 | 0:06:00 | |
and help stranded swimmers. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:02 | |
He's part of a team of more experienced Newfoundland dogs | 0:06:02 | 0:06:05 | |
that work at this water park. | 0:06:05 | 0:06:08 | |
HELP! | 0:06:08 | 0:06:09 | |
The idea is that the young people | 0:06:11 | 0:06:13 | |
watch the dogs towing them back to shore to learn how it's done. | 0:06:13 | 0:06:16 | |
He hasn't got the hang of it yet. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:18 | |
You can feel more confident when you've got a dog beside you, | 0:06:23 | 0:06:26 | |
because you know that if anything happens, they're gonna help you. | 0:06:26 | 0:06:31 | |
But two-year-old Bear is new to the job | 0:06:31 | 0:06:34 | |
and hasn't quite got into the swim of things. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:36 | |
He's definitely not up to speed. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:40 | |
He just can't figure out what to do. | 0:06:40 | 0:06:42 | |
Bear has a water-resistant double coat, webbed feet | 0:06:42 | 0:06:47 | |
and is an incredibly strong swimmer, which is why Newfoundlands | 0:06:47 | 0:06:50 | |
make great water-rescue dogs. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:52 | |
But the lifesaving part is just too confusing for Bear. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:56 | |
Go! Go! | 0:06:56 | 0:06:58 | |
Go! Go. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:03 | |
'There's the water... | 0:07:03 | 0:07:04 | |
'the lifesaver, the rope, | 0:07:04 | 0:07:07 | |
'But which part goes where? | 0:07:07 | 0:07:10 | |
'It really isn't that hard, Bear!' | 0:07:10 | 0:07:12 | |
Come on, Bear! A sweet temperament is one of the hallmarks of the breed | 0:07:13 | 0:07:19 | |
and they love people, so the job should be a breeze. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:22 | |
They're so incredibly strong, who needs a towboat? | 0:07:22 | 0:07:26 | |
Bear should be good at the job of lifeguard. It's in his blood. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:31 | |
And these beefy canines have a nickname - | 0:07:31 | 0:07:34 | |
the St Bernard of the sea. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:36 | |
There are even stories of them jumping into the water | 0:07:36 | 0:07:40 | |
and rescuing shipwrecked sailors. | 0:07:40 | 0:07:42 | |
Dogs with markings just like Bear | 0:07:42 | 0:07:45 | |
have been a favourite artists' model for hundreds of years. | 0:07:45 | 0:07:50 | |
On day two of training, with more encouragement, | 0:07:51 | 0:07:54 | |
it looks like Bear just might be getting the hang of the job. | 0:07:54 | 0:07:59 | |
Go for it, Bear! | 0:08:03 | 0:08:04 | |
Go! Go! | 0:08:04 | 0:08:06 | |
He's done it! | 0:08:06 | 0:08:09 | |
That's it! Get in and pull the lifeguard trainees out. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:20 | |
At last Bear's got to grips with his new job. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:23 | |
Now it looks like everybody's going to graduate - | 0:08:26 | 0:08:29 | |
the lifeguard trainees and Bear. | 0:08:29 | 0:08:31 | |
We've been surfing the net to see what animals | 0:08:37 | 0:08:40 | |
get up to in their spare time. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:41 | |
Countess is a Himalayan seal tortie point cat who lives in Australia. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:47 | |
She's a master of hide and seek, but the cat's out of the bag | 0:08:47 | 0:08:51 | |
on her secret hiding place now that she's been caught on camera. | 0:08:51 | 0:08:55 | |
Secret Mission Vase, accomplished! | 0:09:00 | 0:09:03 | |
Next, we're back with another top-secret location, | 0:09:08 | 0:09:12 | |
this time in England. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:13 | |
Lucky and Flo are the super dogs of the crime-fighting world. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:17 | |
Having worked their way across the globe sniffing out illegal DVDs, | 0:09:19 | 0:09:24 | |
they've been putting their paws up for a well-earned rest. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:28 | |
But it's a dog-eat-dog world and they're back in training | 0:09:28 | 0:09:31 | |
for their next assignment, their first in the UK. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:34 | |
They've got some quite important work coming up soon. | 0:09:34 | 0:09:38 | |
Operational work. | 0:09:38 | 0:09:40 | |
Lucky and Flo may be the world's top dogs for digging out DVDs, | 0:09:42 | 0:09:45 | |
but they still need to be reminded of the smell they're hunting. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:49 | |
Today the dogs are going to be put through a test search. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:53 | |
Phil's going to plant some DVDs in some boxes. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:56 | |
This is the only way to make sure their sniffing skills | 0:09:56 | 0:09:59 | |
are back up to scratch. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:00 | |
They've become a little lax. If they fall below standard | 0:10:00 | 0:10:04 | |
and don't search properly, then obviously we're gonna have trouble | 0:10:04 | 0:10:09 | |
finding illegal DVDs. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:11 | |
Super hounds they might be but the pressure is on. | 0:10:11 | 0:10:16 | |
Labradors have been bred for 200 years as sniffer dogs, | 0:10:16 | 0:10:19 | |
so will these top dogs be able to find where Phil has hidden the DVDs? | 0:10:19 | 0:10:24 | |
Hopefully everything will go well and we'll find the DVDs. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:29 | |
DVDs contain polycarbonate, a kind of plastic. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:33 | |
The dogs can't tell the difference between illegal and legal DVDs, | 0:10:33 | 0:10:37 | |
so their job is just to track down the smell of this plastic. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:41 | |
First up is Flo. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:43 | |
When they're working, their tails are wagging. Work excites them. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:56 | |
Flo is the more methodical of the two dogs. | 0:10:57 | 0:11:00 | |
She's a little slower than Lucky. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:02 | |
It only took eight months to train both their snouts, | 0:11:02 | 0:11:05 | |
though for one of them, it's more about going with the Flo. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:08 | |
She knows they're there and she's sitting back now, | 0:11:08 | 0:11:11 | |
waiting for the ball to come in. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
Come on, Flo, you can do it. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:15 | |
But she isn't going to budge until she's sure. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:19 | |
Good girl! | 0:11:19 | 0:11:22 | |
And the reward is a tennis ball. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:24 | |
It's been slow and steady, yet Flo got there in the end. | 0:11:24 | 0:11:28 | |
Can Lucky find the DVDs faster with her more energetic approach? | 0:11:28 | 0:11:32 | |
The difference between the two is that Lucky's far quicker, | 0:11:32 | 0:11:36 | |
which looks a more enthusiastic search | 0:11:36 | 0:11:39 | |
but in fact, it's just her way of working. | 0:11:39 | 0:11:41 | |
It may look energetic but will it get results? | 0:11:47 | 0:11:51 | |
And Lucky's sniffed out the DVDs almost instantly. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:02 | |
Good girl. Good dog! That's very good. | 0:12:03 | 0:12:06 | |
They've both passed the test and Phil's happy | 0:12:08 | 0:12:11 | |
that they're back on top form. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:13 | |
Tomorrow is Lucky and Flo's first assignment in the UK. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:19 | |
Will their sniffing skills be back on track | 0:12:19 | 0:12:22 | |
in a difficult new location? | 0:12:22 | 0:12:24 | |
'Quiet, please! Animals At Work, John's final link, take one.' | 0:12:26 | 0:12:30 | |
-It's OK here? -'Back a bit, please, John. | 0:12:30 | 0:12:33 | |
'A little bit more, please... | 0:12:34 | 0:12:37 | |
'If you could go all the way through the gate, | 0:12:37 | 0:12:39 | |
'that would be brilliant.' | 0:12:39 | 0:12:40 | |
-Here? -'Yeah, a bit more. Thank you.' | 0:12:40 | 0:12:42 | |
LION ROARS | 0:12:42 | 0:12:45 | |
Stop tickling me! | 0:12:45 | 0:12:47 | |
We're staying in England to go to Devon. | 0:12:49 | 0:12:52 | |
These organic masterpieces were created | 0:13:00 | 0:13:02 | |
to exquisitely capture the control of Rembrandt, | 0:13:02 | 0:13:05 | |
along with the ultimate free expression of Jackson Pollock. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:10 | |
And, believe it or not, they're created by pigs! | 0:13:11 | 0:13:16 | |
Today there's a new piglet wannabe hoping he'll be the next | 0:13:16 | 0:13:20 | |
crackling good artist. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:21 | |
This little pig here is called Pigasso. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:25 | |
He's six weeks old and he's going to have his first day | 0:13:25 | 0:13:28 | |
trying to be an artist. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:30 | |
Pigs love to play, so if you put them on a canvas with some paint | 0:13:30 | 0:13:34 | |
they can use their snout | 0:13:34 | 0:13:36 | |
or their trotters. Of course, if it gets very slippery, | 0:13:36 | 0:13:40 | |
they get very excited and they might roll over | 0:13:40 | 0:13:42 | |
and, as this is his first day, we're not quite sure what he's going to do. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:46 | |
What do you think you're going to do today? | 0:13:46 | 0:13:49 | |
Do you? | 0:13:49 | 0:13:51 | |
At Pennywell Farm, pig painting is big business. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:56 | |
Selling prints like these really brings home the bacon | 0:13:56 | 0:14:01 | |
and raises money for farm food and for charity. | 0:14:01 | 0:14:04 | |
These are the works of two retired piggy past masters - | 0:14:04 | 0:14:10 | |
Van Trough, on the left, | 0:14:10 | 0:14:12 | |
and Francis Bacon, on the right. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:14 | |
They're now too porky to paint, so to stop a trotter | 0:14:14 | 0:14:19 | |
tearing the canvas, little Pigasso is taking over. | 0:14:19 | 0:14:24 | |
Pigasso is a very, very calm, confident pig. | 0:14:24 | 0:14:27 | |
We'll see how his confidence grows as an artist. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:30 | |
Pigasso is a Pennywell miniature pig. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:34 | |
You want to hold it? | 0:14:36 | 0:14:38 | |
They may be small but like full-sized porkers | 0:14:38 | 0:14:41 | |
they still need lots of care and attention and to be kept amused! | 0:14:41 | 0:14:44 | |
They're very special to us as | 0:14:44 | 0:14:48 | |
we wanted pigs that were small that children could enjoy playing with. | 0:14:48 | 0:14:52 | |
For the last 15 years we've actually been breeding specially to have a pig | 0:14:54 | 0:14:58 | |
that stays small for a long time and when they become adults | 0:14:58 | 0:15:02 | |
they're about the size of a springer spaniel, but a lot stouter. | 0:15:02 | 0:15:06 | |
They are the cutest little things you can imagine and they make great pets. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:11 | |
Oh, yum baba doo-doo... | 0:15:11 | 0:15:13 | |
'Good afternoon, Pennywell farmers. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:16 | |
'This is just to let you know that your next activity today | 0:15:16 | 0:15:19 | |
'is piglet painting with our new pig, Pigasso. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:22 | |
'It's Pigasso's first day on the job so do come along | 0:15:22 | 0:15:25 | |
'if you'd like to come and watch him painting.' | 0:15:25 | 0:15:28 | |
At just six weeks old, | 0:15:29 | 0:15:32 | |
Pigasso is ready to have a go at his very first porky painting. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:36 | |
The paint we use is actually very safe finger paint, | 0:15:36 | 0:15:39 | |
the same as you'd buy for children when they do their first paintings | 0:15:39 | 0:15:43 | |
and put their hand on the paint and splodge it on the paper. | 0:15:43 | 0:15:47 | |
If you'd like to bring Pigasso in. Lovely, Vicky. Thank you. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:53 | |
Here he comes. That's it. Give him a clap. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:56 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:15:56 | 0:15:58 | |
Hello. | 0:15:58 | 0:16:00 | |
What do you think of all this? | 0:16:00 | 0:16:03 | |
The paint is put on tiny sponges | 0:16:03 | 0:16:06 | |
and sprinkled with food pellets to encourage Pigasso | 0:16:06 | 0:16:10 | |
to move things around. | 0:16:10 | 0:16:11 | |
Pigasso really looks like he wants | 0:16:11 | 0:16:13 | |
to be number one, but sadly he also wants a number two! | 0:16:13 | 0:16:18 | |
..That's good... Ah! | 0:16:18 | 0:16:19 | |
Ooh! That's not brown paint! | 0:16:21 | 0:16:23 | |
-He pooed. -He has. | 0:16:23 | 0:16:25 | |
The finished painting is auctioned for charity. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:30 | |
Can we have some bids, please? | 0:16:30 | 0:16:33 | |
-£4. -You'll pay £4? | 0:16:33 | 0:16:35 | |
-A fiver. -A fiver! That's £5 over there. Yes? | 0:16:35 | 0:16:39 | |
How much are you gonna pay for it? Ten? £10! | 0:16:39 | 0:16:42 | |
It's going to Spike here! Ten pounds for Spike! | 0:16:42 | 0:16:46 | |
Spike's got it. Thank you, madam. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:48 | |
Delighted. Thank you very much, sir. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:51 | |
-OK. Lovely. -I'm not sure where we're gonna put it. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:54 | |
And what do the lucky new owners think? | 0:16:54 | 0:16:58 | |
I thought it was very good for his first go, | 0:16:58 | 0:17:01 | |
because he's not actually that old yet. | 0:17:01 | 0:17:04 | |
I think he's got a long future of painting | 0:17:04 | 0:17:09 | |
and a good future of painting. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:12 | |
Pigasso has been a star at his first day of work. | 0:17:13 | 0:17:15 | |
It doesn't matter that Pigasso weed and pooed on the canvas. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:19 | |
He puts real body into his work. I couldn't have asked for better. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
As you see, like any great master when they've worked hard, | 0:17:22 | 0:17:25 | |
he's absolutely shattered. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:28 | |
-'John, take one.' -Working with animals can get pretty silly. | 0:17:33 | 0:17:37 | |
Check out these bloopers from me and my co-stars! | 0:17:37 | 0:17:40 | |
Oh, my! | 0:17:40 | 0:17:41 | |
You can lead a horse to... | 0:17:41 | 0:17:43 | |
You bit my hand! I forgot the other joke. | 0:17:43 | 0:17:45 | |
Yeah, not my finger, buddy. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:47 | |
But someone's been... Stop it! Argh! | 0:17:47 | 0:17:51 | |
Your bowel movements will be so good today. | 0:17:51 | 0:17:54 | |
A crime-busting Animals At Work - and there goes the dog. | 0:17:54 | 0:17:58 | |
That hissing, is that all right? | 0:17:58 | 0:18:00 | |
JOHN BURPS Sorry, that was a burger. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:06 | |
Now we're off to Utah in America. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:15 | |
Meet Kiyoshi, an akita. | 0:18:23 | 0:18:25 | |
He's a dog with not one but two very special jobs. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:30 | |
One of Kiyoshi's jobs is a nurse dog. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:33 | |
Once a week he visits the local hospital with boss Kathy | 0:18:33 | 0:18:36 | |
to help cheer up people waiting while their friends | 0:18:36 | 0:18:39 | |
-and relatives have an operation. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:42 | |
Hi, everyone. This is my akita, Kiyoshi. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:46 | |
Fourteen year-old Josh is here with his grandmother. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:49 | |
His mother is having an operation that will last most of the day. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:54 | |
Kiyoshi is on hand to distract Josh | 0:18:54 | 0:18:57 | |
as he gets to try out a few commands. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:00 | |
-Kiyoshi, stand. -Oh. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:03 | |
-OK, I get it. -This dog has been the best thing | 0:19:03 | 0:19:05 | |
for Josh today, cos he's been upset. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:07 | |
His mother is his whole life. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:11 | |
They're just for each other, they're always there, | 0:19:11 | 0:19:14 | |
so that dog right now has given him a real release. | 0:19:14 | 0:19:18 | |
I'm certainly glad they brought it up here. It's been really good for him. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:23 | |
Kiyoshi's favourite area of work is with children. | 0:19:23 | 0:19:28 | |
If he spots a child, he often pulls Kathy over | 0:19:28 | 0:19:30 | |
to them so he can help. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:32 | |
Kiyoshi may be a bit of a couch potato | 0:19:34 | 0:19:36 | |
but he seems to instinctively know what people need. | 0:19:36 | 0:19:39 | |
Do you like dogs? | 0:19:43 | 0:19:45 | |
Yes? Let me show you the softest part of him. Feel right there. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:50 | |
Slowly, as Kiyoshi works the room, | 0:19:52 | 0:19:54 | |
the atmosphere changes, thanks to this big, friendly dog. | 0:19:54 | 0:19:59 | |
It's like all dull and stuff, and then when he came in here | 0:20:01 | 0:20:05 | |
everybody, like, changed into happy, like, | 0:20:05 | 0:20:07 | |
being happy and stuff, excited. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
Oh, he's found a new friend! | 0:20:09 | 0:20:12 | |
After their morning at the hospital, | 0:20:12 | 0:20:15 | |
Kiyoshi and Kathy get some good news. | 0:20:15 | 0:20:18 | |
Josh's mother's surgery has gone well | 0:20:20 | 0:20:23 | |
and she'll soon be in the recovery room. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:25 | |
Kiyoshi gets some well-earned thanks. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:28 | |
Then it's time for Kiyoshi to clock in for his second job, | 0:20:34 | 0:20:38 | |
at the local primary school. | 0:20:38 | 0:20:40 | |
Here he helps children read. | 0:20:40 | 0:20:42 | |
Let's go! | 0:20:42 | 0:20:43 | |
For these children, Kiyoshi is a reading assistant, | 0:20:45 | 0:20:48 | |
and the books are right up his street. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:50 | |
The Taxi Dog. That looks interesting. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:53 | |
-The Smart Dog! -They have problems with their reading skills, | 0:20:53 | 0:20:56 | |
and that's where Kiyoshi comes in. | 0:20:56 | 0:20:58 | |
If an adult reads with a child | 0:21:00 | 0:21:02 | |
they sometimes feel under pressure to get things right. | 0:21:02 | 0:21:05 | |
But with a dog they're not so worried | 0:21:05 | 0:21:07 | |
about saying words out loud and practising as long as they need to. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:12 | |
What... What was going on in the investigation more like a raid... | 0:21:12 | 0:21:18 | |
Kiyoshi's patience is endless | 0:21:18 | 0:21:21 | |
and he enjoys being read to as much as they enjoy reading to him. | 0:21:21 | 0:21:26 | |
This is the most... unusual situation... | 0:21:28 | 0:21:32 | |
Lydia used to be far behind in her reading. | 0:21:32 | 0:21:36 | |
Reading to an adult or classmate could never be as much fun | 0:21:36 | 0:21:39 | |
as reading to Kiyoshi. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:41 | |
Now reading has become one of Lydia's favourite activities. | 0:21:41 | 0:21:46 | |
When she started in my class she didn't turn in any work. | 0:21:46 | 0:21:49 | |
By the end of the term, she was turning in more things. | 0:21:49 | 0:21:52 | |
She felt more open to express herself in writing | 0:21:52 | 0:21:54 | |
and, you know, reading out loud. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:56 | |
Although Lydia's reading has come on in leaps and bounds, | 0:21:56 | 0:22:00 | |
it's still good to have Kiyoshi by her side. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:02 | |
She's told me Kiyoshi's a very good listener, haven't you? | 0:22:02 | 0:22:06 | |
And he doesn't play favourites. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:08 | |
He's got time for everyone. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:12 | |
So the paw-tograph... Oh, look! From Kiyoshi. Yay! | 0:22:12 | 0:22:16 | |
An authentic paw-tograph! | 0:22:16 | 0:22:20 | |
Thanks to all his hard work, Kiyoshi has become a local celebrity. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:24 | |
Back at home, it's time to wind down. | 0:22:25 | 0:22:28 | |
After all, he is a dog with two jobs. | 0:22:28 | 0:22:32 | |
Next it's off to Felixstowe on the English coast. | 0:22:38 | 0:22:42 | |
Today is the big day for canine crime-fighting duo Lucky and Flo. | 0:22:45 | 0:22:49 | |
They've been sharpening their DVD sniffing skills in readiness | 0:22:49 | 0:22:53 | |
for this - their first assignment in the UK. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:57 | |
Here at Felixstowe docks, their target awaits - | 0:22:57 | 0:23:01 | |
a warehouse as big as six tennis courts! | 0:23:01 | 0:23:03 | |
It's full of cargo that may have illegal DVDs hidden inside. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:08 | |
Today really is what the game's all about. | 0:23:08 | 0:23:10 | |
Although they don't realize how crucial it is, | 0:23:10 | 0:23:13 | |
what they're gonna be doing today is the end result | 0:23:13 | 0:23:16 | |
of all the training, the selection and the build-up to it. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:20 | |
Hopefully we'll get some success today. | 0:23:20 | 0:23:23 | |
MUSIC: Theme from Knight Rider | 0:23:23 | 0:23:26 | |
Although these are the top DVD dogs in the business, | 0:23:28 | 0:23:32 | |
any new location can be a tough nut to crack. | 0:23:32 | 0:23:35 | |
Flo's up first in the hunt for illegal DVDs. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:42 | |
Will her steady approach work on the first part of this assignment, | 0:23:42 | 0:23:46 | |
checking out these sacks? | 0:23:46 | 0:23:48 | |
There's no freeze. She's not slowing down on anything. | 0:23:51 | 0:23:54 | |
She's not showing an interest in anything. | 0:23:54 | 0:23:57 | |
She's just covering the ground, searching what she needs to search, | 0:23:57 | 0:24:01 | |
and then moving on. | 0:24:01 | 0:24:02 | |
This is a top search dog hard at work. | 0:24:04 | 0:24:06 | |
Flo's body language is telling Phil she hasn't found anything. | 0:24:06 | 0:24:10 | |
If she does, she's trained to sit still, | 0:24:10 | 0:24:13 | |
but Flo doesn't turn up any DVDs. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:16 | |
Now it's Lucky's turn to do the second search, | 0:24:18 | 0:24:20 | |
this time, in some boxes. | 0:24:20 | 0:24:23 | |
Will she do any better with her high-energy tactics? | 0:24:23 | 0:24:27 | |
What happened there is that she's completed the search | 0:24:45 | 0:24:49 | |
and found nothing. | 0:24:49 | 0:24:50 | |
The search for the pirate DVD goes on. | 0:24:50 | 0:24:54 | |
With the sacks and boxes done, the last part of the assignment | 0:24:54 | 0:24:57 | |
is to search a shipping container. | 0:24:57 | 0:24:59 | |
This time Lucky's going in first. | 0:24:59 | 0:25:01 | |
But before she does, Phil needs to check for any hidden dangers | 0:25:01 | 0:25:04 | |
like sharp edges or rat poison. | 0:25:04 | 0:25:07 | |
Safety check complete and, no surprise, | 0:25:09 | 0:25:12 | |
Lucky's in there like a shot. | 0:25:12 | 0:25:14 | |
Looks like she found something. | 0:25:20 | 0:25:22 | |
She's giving me a bit of an indication on this box here. | 0:25:22 | 0:25:26 | |
It's possible that there's some plastic fittings in it | 0:25:26 | 0:25:29 | |
but it's possible there could be something else as well. | 0:25:29 | 0:25:32 | |
Flo is sent in to double check. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:34 | |
After a lot of careful checking and sniffing, | 0:25:49 | 0:25:53 | |
Flo sits down to indicate that she's found something. | 0:25:53 | 0:25:56 | |
She's showing the same thing so it could well be | 0:25:56 | 0:25:59 | |
that there's some DVDs in there. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:01 | |
The heat is on. | 0:26:01 | 0:26:04 | |
Both dogs have now told Phil that there may be DVDs inside. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:08 | |
All they can do now is wait with baited breath. | 0:26:08 | 0:26:11 | |
This is the boxes that the dogs indicated. | 0:26:19 | 0:26:22 | |
They're containing plastic polycarbonate brackets | 0:26:22 | 0:26:26 | |
for the bathroom fittings. | 0:26:26 | 0:26:29 | |
Unfortunately in the real world, | 0:26:29 | 0:26:30 | |
the target odour that the dogs find is often found | 0:26:30 | 0:26:33 | |
in other everyday items. | 0:26:33 | 0:26:34 | |
The dog isn't wrong in this case but I can't reward 'em. | 0:26:34 | 0:26:37 | |
I can't reward either Lucky or Flo for it | 0:26:37 | 0:26:40 | |
because it's not the target odour that I'm looking for. | 0:26:40 | 0:26:42 | |
Well, that's the problem with plastic like polycarbonate | 0:26:42 | 0:26:46 | |
being in more than just DVDS. | 0:26:46 | 0:26:48 | |
But the important thing is that they sniffed out the right smell. | 0:26:48 | 0:26:52 | |
That proves these girls are right back on top form | 0:26:52 | 0:26:55 | |
and they've done their job to secure this warehouse | 0:26:55 | 0:26:59 | |
as an illegal-free zone. | 0:26:59 | 0:27:00 | |
You might think this turtle is smart because he can play chess. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:11 | |
Well, I'm considerably smarter! | 0:27:13 | 0:27:15 | |
I usually win, two out of three. | 0:27:15 | 0:27:18 | |
Could you hurry it up a little? | 0:27:20 | 0:27:21 | |
