    aiming to become the youngest person to
  • 00:03:47
    climb all 14 mountains above 8,000 M
  • 00:03:51
    even though he comes from a community of
  • 00:03:53
    Mountaineers this is still a big deal
  • 00:03:56
    this is a very big uh kind of advantage
  • 00:03:59
    for the sh community and even for me and
  • 00:04:01
    for for everyone you know like because
  • 00:04:03
    before this you cannot you cannot uh
  • 00:04:05
    imagine a teenager doing a 14 P you know
  • 00:04:07
    sherpers are an ethnic group native to

    The Valleys around Mount Everest and

    they're often guides for Mountaineers in
  • 00:04:14
    the Himalayas they carry large loads
  • 00:04:16
    like equipment and food fixing ladders
  • 00:04:19
    and ropes along the way always a
  • 00:04:21
    dangerous feat and climbing such
  • 00:04:24
    incredible Heights also brings great
  • 00:04:26
    risks Avalanches exposure and high
  • 00:04:30
    altitude sickness can easily take over
  • 00:04:32
    and can be the difference between a
  • 00:04:34
    successful Summit and never reaching the
  • 00:04:36
    peak but naringi sherper says his mental
  • 00:04:39
    state is what keeps him focused and calm
  • 00:04:42
    I kind of convinced myself you know like
  • 00:04:46
    uh to be normal in the mountain like for
  • 00:04:47
    example uh when I see abulance or bad
  • 00:04:50
    weather or when I see an accident in the
  • 00:04:52
    mountain I'm not uh in hurry or I don't
  • 00:04:55
    get like nervous something like that
  • 00:04:57
    only about 40 people have reached all 14
  • 00:05:00
    peaks of what they call the 8000ers
  • 00:05:03

    reinforcement to better prepare them for
  • 00:06:04
    adoption take a looky who's that this
  • 00:06:08
    see I was a troubled child I would run
  • 00:06:10
    around cause a lot of trouble in and out
  • 00:06:14
    incarceration most of the dogs didn't
  • 00:06:16
    really catch my attention until I seen
  • 00:06:19
    this boxer named Quincy when kids can
  • 00:06:23
    contribute to giving a dog a second
  • 00:06:25
    chance at a better life we see the shift
  • 00:06:28
    in them yes beautiful timing the k9's
  • 00:06:32
    teaching compassion program it's an
  • 00:06:34
    8-week program we have a skills
  • 00:06:38
    curriculum
  • 00:06:40
    yay the kids use what's called positive
  • 00:06:43
    reinforcement training we partner with
  • 00:06:46
    juvenile detention centers educational
  • 00:06:49
    institutions and nonprofit organizations
  • 00:06:52
    serving
  • 00:06:53
    youth we don't know their stories what
  • 00:06:57
    maybe put them in juvenile hall you've
  • 00:06:59
    got
  • 00:07:00
    kids who have experienced a lot of
  • 00:07:01
    trauma in their lives and we get to go
  • 00:07:04
    in with a blank slate they may share a
  • 00:07:07
    very similar story with their dog that
  • 00:07:08
    their dog has experienced neglect or
  • 00:07:11
    abandonment or maybe abuse once they
  • 00:07:14
    start applying the positive
  • 00:07:15
    reinforcements with the dog and teaching
  • 00:07:18
    the dog and the dog is responding nicely
  • 00:07:20
    done then there's a lot of reciprocity
  • 00:07:23
    that goes back and forth she's available
  • 00:07:25
    100% available for adoption we know that
  • 00:07:28
    when dogs are well trained and and
  • 00:07:29
    socialize they have a greater chance at
  • 00:07:31
    adoption good
  • 00:07:33
    job since the start of our services we
  • 00:07:37
    have served more than 450 youth those
  • 00:07:42
    youth have contributed to the adoption
  • 00:07:44
    placement of more than 220 dogs I
  • 00:07:47
    learned a lot of uh social skills I
  • 00:07:50
    learned how not to be nervous and how to
  • 00:07:52
    kind of control my emotions a lot
  • 00:07:55
    down working with Quincy obviously
  • 00:07:58
    seeing him get a second shot actually
  • 00:08:00
