Congratulations to Search Dog Maya and handler Conor for passing their Level 2 Search Dog Assessment. Search Dog Maya will deploy to search for vulnerable missing people in Hampshire and the surrounding counties.
Passing the assessment and qualifying as a Level 2 Search Dog Handler means the world to me. (Search Dog) Maya making one find would make all the hundreds of hours of training worth it. Deploying with Hampshire Search & Rescue Dogs to search for vulnerable missing people and bringing loved ones home is why we volunteer.
