The
test we took this July 2015 was with an American company (Objective
First Tactical K-9) while we were attending a Cadaver/Trailing Seminar
in Kalispell, Montana. The standards tested on were for the Human
Remains Detection (Land) and Flurry passed with no problems, even in 100
degree temperatures. His bark alert is bang on. This is Flurry’s first
certification in any profile.
We
are now waiting to be certified in wilderness and ditch through the
Canadian Search Dog Association sometime this summer/fall. He shouldn’t
have a problem with that.
In
addition to the SAR work, we have also been screened in for Zebra/Quagga
Mussel detection. Check out the Working Dogs for Conservation website.
This is a new initiative through my current employer (Alberta
Environment and Parks) in which dogs are used to detect the invasive
species. I didn’t want to take on a new dog, so I had Flurry tested and
things are good to go for next year if I still want to pursue it.

Lou Ann Metz

Ella
became a certified Level I Cadaver Dog with Summit Search and Rescue
Dogs. This is the highest level of certification offered by the
organization. Summit Search and Rescue Dogs is a 16 + year old SAR
team that is based in northeast Ohio and is the search and rescue
resource for the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Ella is owned and
handled by Lou Ann Metz, a Division Fire Chief with the Stow Fire
Department.
Ella has been
training in cadaver work since she left the Hoofprint Kennels at age 7
weeks. She is now 19 months old. She loves the search "game" and has
tremendous drive for the work. She is very agile which is required to do
this demanding work. She is very serious when working and has great focus.
In order to
achieve this certification she was evaluated by three independent
evaluators in several areas. These areas included a 40 acre and a 65 acre
search wilderness search, a building search, a search in or on the shoreline
of water and a search for buried cadaver materials of various types and age. She
completed her 40 acre search successfully locating the source in 67 minutes
and her 65 acre search successfully in 2 hours.
Special thanks
to Joanne and Beth Barkley. This is the second pup that Beth Barkley has
chosen for Lou Ann and both have been outstanding working dogs.

Siri was purchased to follow
in the footsteps of Panda, Beth's first Search and Rescue dog.
These would be big steps to fill. Sirius tried really hard, he
not only became a Search and Rescue dog he also became a Cadaver
Dog, Unfortunatly Siri had to be retired early because of a
injury to a hind leg, and then bad injury to a front leg. He
later was certified as a Pet Therapy Dog.

he was tested for his ability to be a police dog. At first they
were very disappointed that Prince was white and they weren't
going to accept him. They decided that since he had been offered
to them, they should at least test him. Well he made such a good
impression that they accepted him to be included in the first
group of 4 dogs to be trained for the London Ontario Police
Force. He passed with flying colors. He was the lifetime partner
of Rick Frackrell. He was also given Sargent bars, when Rick was
promoted to Sargent. He was pictured many time in the newspapers,
when he had helped solve another crime. He was credited with
over 200 arrests and he was still working at the time of his
death due to liver failure at 11 years of age. |
