When someone is reported lost, overdue or when disaster strikes, our volunteer search and rescue / recovery (SAR) dog teams are available to respond, day or night, to help in the search effort. SAR dogs can find:
- Children lost in the wilderness, parks or hidden in shrubbery around houses.
- Elderly people who have wandered away from homes and hospitals.
- Hikers and hunters lost in the woods.
- Victims of drowning accidents.
- Victims of earthquake, flood, explosion, fire, train wrecks, plane crashes.
- Evidence of crime and the recovery of bodies of homicide victims.
