Episode Details

Ricochet was trained as a service dog but she was not placed because she likes to chase little animals, critters, squirrels.

跳跳曾被训练为服务犬，但她还没有正式上岗，因为她喜欢追逐小动物，例如小松鼠。

She would not make it as a service dog, but she also surfs. So, she surfs with people who have disabilities. So now I call her 'a surface dog'.

她无法成为服务犬，但她会冲浪。她会与残疾人士一同冲浪。现在我叫她“冲浪犬”。

She was eight weeks old. I had her in a kiddie pool and there was a boogie board and I kind of tapped it to invite her on it and she climbed on and had really good balance.

她当时才八周大。我把她放在一个儿童泳池里，泳池里有一块冲浪板，我轻轻拍了拍冲浪板，示意她爬上去，她就爬了上去，而且平衡感非常好。

So, from that I just continued playing around with it. I lay on the board and she stands behind me.

从此以后我就一直跟她这么玩儿。我躺在趴板上，跳跳站在我身后，

There's a pusher, you know, another individual that will push them into the wave and Ricochet is really good at balancing the board for Hunter and in the beginning of his surfing that he needed that. I'm the only one who surfs in the family.

趴板后面有一个推手，他会把他们推到浪中，跳跳真的很擅长给亨特保持平衡，他初次冲浪真的很需要这样的帮助。我是家里唯一会冲浪的人。

There's a lot of trust that goes on with it, a lot of empowerment, especially kids with autism that don't get to really do anything on their own.

这其中蕴含着大量的信任和极大的自主空间，尤其是对自闭症儿童而言，他们通常无法真正独立完成任何事情。

There's usually supervision, but when they're in the water with Ricochet, they feel in control.

通常都会有监督员，但是在水里和跳跳在一起，他们会觉得自己完全能掌控。
