Welcome!

What you need to know about K-9 ONE!

Our Missing Persons Response Teams are available at no charge, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

We are a volunteer organization of specially trained canine handlers dedicated to search and rescue work. Our members have years of active search experience in air scent, human remains detection, disaster and trailing.

Since 1990 we have been assisting law enforcement and fire and emergency management in searching for lost children, Alzheimer's patients, hunters, hikers, despondents, and drowning victims. Additionally, we have assisted in criminal cases, locating and identifying human trace evidence.

K-9 ONE members must pass a background check and an extensive training course before they are considered deployable on actual searches. Some requirements of every active team member are:

• FEMA Certifications of
   IS-22, IS-100, IS-200, IS-700, IS-800, IS-809

• Crime Scene Preservation

• CPR Certified

• First Aid Certified

• FCC HAM Radio License

• Navigation

• Missing Person Profiles

K-9 ONE operates under the Federal ICS protocol and utilizes nationally standardized documentation readily transferable for agency use.
