Here's a clip from the SAR Dog page, click on it to learn more about what Michelle and I do!

It's about heart. Plain and simple. And it's about spirit. Your spirit. The thing that drives you and guides you thru this thing called life. It's about waking up each morning and knowing that today is another chance to make a difference. It's about going to bed each night and being able to sleep knowing you did the right thing. It's about feeding your spirit, doing what you have been called upon to do and serving humanity. It's about giving a little part of you to a cause greater than yourself. It's about dedication in training and commitment to hard work; building partnerships that form a unified response in timesof need. It is about faith, faith in oneself, faith in your teammates, faith in your dog, and faith in your God. It is about belief in divine guidance and its ability to work thru us. We are the emissaries for good. We are the believers in right. We are the ones who answer the call. We are the search and rescue professional.

:oops: :lol: And I just sent it to highlight pit bulls in SAR work. Click on "search and rescue" on the left and then scroll down to "photos"

We owe a huge debt of gratitude to Dennis and those who volunteer their time and resources for this work. Three thumbs up!

How very TRUE, Dennis and Ed....I can't do it now, but I still remember everything I was trained for. :cry:

Anyone need a SAR-FEMA certified response teacher?

Thanks Ed, we "REALLY" appreciate that! Yes.....it's a LOT of work, especially the dog training BUT, once their trained then we have to work on our skills. But ya know what? I wouldn't trade it for the WORLD.....there's a special bond between the handlers, the K9's and our partners!

Thanks for the wonderful link and thanks for showing us the wonderful hearts that so many folks and dogs have. This presentation reminded me of the reason I spend so much of my free time with the CERT program here in Boca Raton.
