Finding local S&R Group??
What is the easiest way to find/get involved in a local group? I have a dog that would excell at S&R and I want to see what my options are with her. I am in NC near Charlotte.

Re: Finding local S&R Group??
I know of a trainer in the area that might know......his name is Andy Hanellin and he works with explosives and drug dogs, but has done some SAR I think, Anyway, he would probably know the right people at any rate. http://www.dogsbyandy.com

I would recommend that you contact you local Emergency management office or your local Sheriff's office and thet could get you headed in the right direction.

Re: Finding local S&R Group??
You have some options
My team, SCSARDA is based in Spartanburg NCSARDA is in Asheville Area There are some folks in Hickory, I think Check with the FD in Statesville, there were some people there Foothills SAR is in Grennville SCSD is in Charleston REDs is in Raleigh There is a team in Rutherfordton but not so sure about them There is a team in Columbia, STAR team but we have not trained with them in a long time There are no teams I know of in Charlotte. Mecklenburg County does not call volunteer dogs handlers nor does York County, though they have a couple of people associated with the FD who work dogs.

Oh yes and for NC
http://www.ncsar.com http://www.ncsar.com/members.htm These are NOT all dog teams, btw. Just to let you know there is a lot of politics in NC in SAR.
