Angela and Florian Köck are dog handlers at the Schliersee mountain rescue service. They work up to 72 hours every week, do dog training once a week, are on mountain rescue duty for two days every four weeks and are on duty around the clock for the dog team in an emergency.

The couple travels up to 3,000 kilometers a year just for training and exercises. When their owners are onduty, the dogs stay with Angela's grandparents. Because without family support they would not be able to keep the dogs.
