Some dogs help us find lost people. Dogs can smell very well… and they use their noses to smell and find lost people. We call these dogs "search and rescue" dogs.
有一些狗狗會用嗅覺來幫忙找失蹤的人，這種狗叫做搜救犬。
But in the U.K., one search and rescue dog got lost…
在英國有一隻搜救犬失蹤了。
The dog's name is Juno. Juno was out for a walk one day, and she ran into some tall grass. Why? We don't know. Maybe she was playing.
狗狗的名字叫Juno，有一天在散步時，牠跑到草叢裡面。
The grass was near a river… and Juno got lost. People called her name "Juno! Juno!" but nothing! They couldn't find her for 5 days!
大家一直叫 Juno 的名字，但是花了五天還是找不到牠。
Finally, someone had a good idea. They used a drone. Drones can fly high in the sky and this drone has a camera.
有人想到可以用無人機來找牠，無人機會飛而且有攝影機。
After five days of searching… they saw her! She was near one side of the river, so people got into a boat and rescued her.
Everyone was so happy! Usually, a search-and-rescue dog finds people, but this time a drone found a search and rescue dog!
通常是搜救犬幫忙找人，但這一次是無人機找到搜救犬！
Juno was hungry and tired, but she was okay. They brought her home and gave her some food and she took a nice long nap.
Drones are cool. They can even help find and rescue people… and dogs!
