Our certified K9 teams are trained to detect and alert on human remains across diverse environments including open fields, wooded terrain, disaster sites, and urban areas. Handlers maintain ongoing training and certification to the highest national standards.

Certified FAA pilot drone operations provide aerial search coverage, orthomosaic mapping, thermal imaging support, and real-time video for incident commanders. Drone operations accelerate search coverage, identify areas of interest for K9 and ground teams, and provide photographic documentation of search areas and evidence locations.

Structured incident command ensures organized operations with clear roles, communication plans, and safety protocols. Our IC team coordinates with requesting agencies, manages search assignments, documents all operations, and supports search planning across all active resources.

Pathfinder K9 SAR is committed to educating and engaging the communities we serve. We offer public demonstrations of K9 HRD operations, youth safety education through the NASAR Hug-A-Tree program, agency presentations for law enforcement and emergency management partners, and periodic Open House events where community members can learn about search and recovery operations firsthand.
