Profiles

Tracking

Tracking teaches dogs to follow scent trails, identify missing persons' unique scents, and work effectively in various environments.

Area Search

Area search trains dogs to find missing persons in urban or wilderness areas. They learn to indicate scent sources and work with handlers.

Scent Detection

Scent Detection involved dogs that are trained to identify specific scents, such as articles or substances. They learn to alert their handlers to the presence of these scents, aiding in various search scenarios.

Obedience & Dexterity

Obedience focuses on essential commands for search and rescue, ensuring dogs respond reliably, even in stressful situations. Dexterity adds obstacles such as ladders, planks, tunnels etc.
