GUNNA LUN DOGS & CATS KIRKA TINA

 

 

First internationale SAR exercise reviewing "Zagreb 04"

The excercise was at 5th of September 2004 in old abandoned factory ruin "Pobjeda" ("Victory") at Zavrtnica in Zagreb. The organizer were our Club (KOSSP "Zagreb") in co-operation with Protection and Safety Department and Civil Protection of Zagreb. We did a lot of cleaning the week before to make sure that there's no harm for dogs or people. At the end, Ana Viller, excercise leader, gave to all competitors all details about the ruin. Each team had a sketch of the ruin.

There was four teams, each made of four competitors. Three of them was elite slovenian SAR teams and one was ours.

Our team was: Petra Covic with golden retriever Koni, Tibor Lugar with golden retriever Mav (team leader), Tomislav Zdencar with golden retriever Tajga and me with Gunna.

Whole excercise was made up of 5 elements: 3 searching parts, transport, lying down (dogs) for 20 minutes and obstacles.

Injured were at different and various locations: roof, at the top of leather adn so on. Dogs couldn't see most of them.

One of injured was hidden in the dark in atomic shelter.

Obstacle excercise at the height about few metres. In this excercise, Gunna shows her agility talent. She was thrilled of joy when she understood that there's some obstacles :-) She behaved as she is at agility training and impressed everyone.

Transport and further searching...

One of the distraction was chicken but dogs wasn't pay attention to it at all.

Little rest...

This is sketch after ruin action which shows the number of found people and ruin dangers.

After competition, all participants got free warm meal, participation diploma and gifts. Our team won second place. We are verty satisfied with it because we are young team and the competition was tough and with lot of experience.

Moj brother Jurica, new at SAR team...

Gunna shown great talent at this excercise and found even 5 hidden people. With every training she amazes me with her potential.
