UWFRA regularly calls in and practices with the Search and Rescue Dog Association (SARDA).

SARDA dogs are highly trained at air scenting. They are invaluable in searching large areas of open countryside for casualties in bad weather and at night, saving many man hours!

The team has two fully graded SARDA dogs, Gyp and Tara.

For more information about SARDA see their website: www.sardaengland.org.uk
