Imagine a dog capable of finding lost glasses or helping with the laundry. Arthur MacMillan has the story of one canine that's much more than a woman's best friend.

CNN主播

想象一下一只會找眼鏡或幫忙洗衣服的狗。亞瑟·麥克米倫要報(bào)道一只狗的故事，它可不只是一名女子最好的朋友而已。

ARTHUR MACMILLAN，ITV CORRESPONDENT

Renae the Labrador really is a dog operating on remote control. She's a constant source of help for her owner, Margie Woodward, who suffers from cerebral palsy, helping with the tasks Margie finds difficult. Few tasks are beyond Renae's abilities.

ITV特派員 亞瑟·麥克米倫

雷妮這只拉布拉多犬真的可以用“遙控”的方式來召喚。她一直都是主人瑪姬·伍華德的幫手?，敿悄X性麻痹患者，雷妮做一些難度較高的工作。很少有哪樣工作是雷妮做不到的。

MARGIE WOODWARD, RENAE'S OWNER

She picks Up anything I drop, finds my glasses, because I never know where they are in the house, so she always knows. And my hearing aid. In fact, once I was looking for the hearing aid and I looked down at her [and said], "What have you got in your mouth? Oh! Thank you." Hearing aid!

雷妮的主人 瑪姬·伍華德

她會撿起我掉落的任何東西，找到我的眼鏡，因?yàn)槲矣肋h(yuǎn)不知道把眼鏡放在家中哪個(gè)地方，但她總是知道。還有我的助聽器。有一次我在找助聽器的時(shí)候，我低下頭看著她說：“你嘴巴里咬著什么東西?啊!謝謝你”。是個(gè)助聽器!

ARTHUR MACMILLAN, ITV CORRESPONDENT

In Romsey, Hampshire the Labrador is constantly at Margie's side. She can even lift money out of a cash machine. This helpful obedience requires Up to 18 months of training.

ITV特派員 亞瑟·麥克米倫

在漢曾郡隆鎮(zhèn)這個(gè)地方，雷妮這只拉布拉多犬總是待在瑪姬身邊。她甚至能把鈔票從提款機(jī)中取出來。像這樣昕話又能提供協(xié)助的表現(xiàn)需要長達(dá) 18個(gè)月的訓(xùn)練。

KAREN O'DONOGUE, CANINE PARTNERSHIPS

We always say it's actually more difficult to train the people than it is to train the dogs, because they have to learn the same commands that we teach the dogs, obviously.

犬伴計(jì)劃 凱倫·歐唐諾古

我們常說事實(shí)上訓(xùn)練人比訓(xùn)練狗還難，因?yàn)轱@然人要學(xué)的指令和我們教狗的是一樣的。

ARTHUR MACMILLAN, ITV CORRESPONDENT

But it is time well spent for 30 people who benefit from Canine Partnerships every year.

ITV特派員 亞瑟·麥克米倫

但是花這些時(shí)間對于每年受惠于“犬伴計(jì)劃”的30個(gè)人而言是值得的。

MARGIE WOODWARD, RENAE'S OWNER

They're always there night and day, and you've always got somebody about two feet away from you if you should need assistance.

雷妮的主人 瑪姬·伍華德

它們不論晝夜都在那里，一旦你需要幫忙，它們都會在離你兩英尺以內(nèi)的地方。

ARTHUR MACMILLAN, ITV CORRESPONDENT

Learning 100 tasks like Renae has done may take a year and a half, but it can prove a life enhancing experience for the lucky few who become their owners.

ITV特派員 亞瑟·麥克米倫

要像雷妮這樣學(xué)會做 100件事可能需要一年半的時(shí)間，但是對于少數(shù)有幸成為它們主人的人而言，這肯定能提升他們的生活品質(zhì)。
