The President is taking his dog for a walk in the mountains. It's the first time his pet has been on a

takes shelter on the mountainside.
The courageous dog jumps fences, scales boulders and crosses wild rivers, until he meets the
Mountain Rescue team, who take him on the most exciting trip ever as their helicopter flies to the
