Search And Rescue Dogs Of Colorado

We had such a great evening at The Stillery in Westminster this weekend! Thank you to everyone who came out to support SARDOC and spend time with our team. 🐾

Surge may have stolen the show (and possibly the dance floor)—pretty sure line dancing is his new favorite activity!

We’re so grateful for this amazing community!

Congratulations to Caroline and Gwyn for passing the next step in the certification process! Caroline recently became a voting member of our SARDOC team. Her education in non-profit operations is helping us ramp up our grant procurements in 2026, strengthening our organization from top to bottom. Gwyn is just here for the reward - preferably a tug toy - after every successful training session. 😀

In December, SARDOC responded to a request for canine support from the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office to locate a missing child. The SARDOC Area Search dog team was able to quickly locate the child and was reunited with their family.

Thank you to for their partnership!

SARDOC search dog handlers are unpaid volunteers who are passionate about reuniting families with their missing loved ones. Please consider donating to SARDOC so we can continue to provide these vital services. https://sardock9.org/donate/

What a day in Pueblo!

Our SARDOC teams turned Water Tower Place – a massive, historic meat packing plant – into the ultimate urban training ground for a one-day training hosted by our Southern Region.

Dogs and handlers tackled building and urban searches, practicing air scent, trailing, and HRD in tight hallways and open industrial spaces. And of course, the best part for the dogs? Nothing beats the excitement of the final reward – in Poppy's case, a frisbee – after a successful find. 🐾🎉

Big thanks to everyone who made this training possible.
