Seeking Scent: The Search and Rescue Stories of Four Special Brown Dogs & The Secret World They Shared With Me (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798878077606)

This book tells the tales of four Search and Rescue canines, four Sussex Spaniels, deployed throughout southern Oregon and Northern California over a period of a dozen years.The author's special brown dogs were certified in area search, trailing, and human remains detection. Many of the stories in the book were written only days after a search concluded and capture the emotions that a search brings to all those involved; others were recounted from mission reports. Many of the stories contain maps and photos and lessons learned.
Ann hopes her stories may inspire others to pursue their passion. SAR is a passion. She recounts: "It's what gets you up in the middle of the night, in the rain and in the cold, to go search for someone you have never met in the hopes of bringing them home safely to their family and friends. And you do it for nothing in return, no pay and no accolades; you do it just because there is something deep inside of you that only you recognize." She also challenges her readers to continue to learn, continue to question, believe in your training, and most importantly to listen to your faithful canine partner.
