Avalanche Rescue Dogs - Mountain rescue comes in many forms: beacon, shovel, probe, rescue teams such as the PGHM, and dogs. Only 100 dogs in France are trained to dig avalanche victims out so we followed them during one of their monthly training to understand the work that goes into saving lives.

Produced, Directed & Edited by Jools Benker
Filmed by Mateffy Istvan
