A Special Thanks

SCSARDA is grateful for the tremendous coverage given the successful search for Michael Auberry. We are even more grateful that he is alive and safe with his family.

Misha and Gandalf and have spent many hours of training for this moment, but we would like to remember that all participants in a search effort are the heroes.

For every dog team who finds a lost person because they are properly trained and have been placed in the  right search area, there are scores of others with similar training who have not found the person in a different area because the person is simply not there. The information provided by NOT finding the lost person in a sector greatly assists search management in narrowing down the search area and assigning new resources as the search grows older.

Most search dog handlers invest a great deal of personal time and money in training to develop the skills needed to provide this service and are not reimbursed for their costs. These teams can always put contributions of
time and money to good use. Please support your local K9 Search and Rescue Team in any way you can.
