Our main goal is to train teams formed by a dog handler and a dog, whose purpose is to locate people who get lost in the mountain, trapped under rubble or buried in snow.
We are civilians, each of us with his/her own professional activity. As volunteers, we commit much of our spare time to this altruistic social and humanitarian task.
Several training sessions a week in common and the daily work carried out by each dog handler and dog are evaluated in a yearly mission-readiness test which guarantees that our teams have reached the level required internationally to take part in Rescue Missions.
Whenever necessary, we are ready for deployment, through SOS-Deiak 112 (Basque Governmental Emergency Service), 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
