See Our Team In Action
Search and rescue (SAR) dogs are trained to perform many tasks. Knowing what each type of dog can and can’t do is important to be able to quickly match the proper team with the task.
All Volunteer Team
None of “us” are being paid. We are a recognized 501c3 in the United States of America. If you would like to make a donation, it would be appreciated.
Decades of Search and Rescue Work with German Shepherds
The search teams are not novices. You are reaping the benefit of decades of SAR work with German Shepherds. Our focus is wilderness and recovery searching.
