Handler-K9 Teams

The Mid-South Search & Rescue Dog Association is comprised of handler-K9 teams that specialize in various disciplines. Mission-ready teams have met all certifications in their respective disciplines and are authorized to respond to call-outs from law enforcement and emergency services agencies.
