Certified K-9 Teams

NESAR offers air-scenting and man-tracking K-9 Teams for wilderness, disaster, water and cadaver search missions. Our K-9 Teams are certified to meet or exceed guidelines set forth by the National Association for Search and Rescue (NASAR) and the Pennsylvania Search and Rescue Council (PSARC).  SAR K-9 Teams are capable of covering large areas in a fraction of the time required by groups of grid searchers, with a high probability of detection (POD). This is especially valuable during "high priority" searches; when the search subject is evasive or unresponsive; or when field grid searchers are not available in large numbers. Our K-9 Teams are capable of working during both day and night missions, in most types of weather and terrain, and can be deployed within minutes of an agency's request.
