What is a Tracker Team?
How can you help me find my lost pet?

Sam and Salsa, tracking

Search dogs are only one part of your effort. The advantage of a search dog is that it may direct your search, thus making it more efficient.

A tracker team consists of a search dog and handler/owner/trainer. We often ask the owner to walk along with us, although this is not necessary. For more details, see the tracking process page.

It is important to understand that search dogs are not magic. We often find the expectation is that the search dog will come out and in minutes, magically pick up the track, find the missing pet, and bring it home.

Again, the Tracker Team is just one part of a full search effort. While we have had success, and always hope for the best, sometimes it’s not a storybook ending. Sometimes all we can bring is closure. Know that we will do our best for you.
