"Poaching: Welsh-trained dog saves rhino in South Africa
A dog trained in Wales helped to save an 18-month-old rhino from poachers in South Africa.
Dan, a one-year-old Belgian malinois, was bred and trained at Dogs 4 Wildlife in Carmarthenshire.
Last week Dan found Viola, a rhino calf that had been caught in a snare in KwaZulu-Natal province with her mother nearby. The pair were both saved."
