K9 Search and Rescue handler

In 2014 I decided to join search and rescue, after my sister went missing for over a year and was found deceased. Since then, I have added three other dogs to go find missing people. For the last 10 years I have been all over the world, with one K9 or another to assist in disaster situations, along within Western Canada.
