Today's speaker was Pat Boggs with Central Arkansas Search and Rescue Canine. She reviewed the different level of training for dogs, including cadaver dogs. It requires 2 years to train a dog to be field ready, and another 2 to 3 years for more specialized rescue/search procedures. Mrs. Boggs then gave an example of their participation in a high profile murder case, as well as other recovery cases and techniques. Finally, she answered questions.
