Chicago Regional SAR is an all round canine SAR
organization. This means we are trained to look for live
subjects, like the child or alzheimer patient who wanders
away from a family picnic, lost hunters and hikers in
wilderness situation, potential suicide victims and any
other person who is missing and maybe alive or deceased. We
are also trained for human remains detection and can be
called by police to investigate potentially buried bodies or
look for drowning victims or human remains in collapsed
structures like the gulf coast after the hurricane.
Some of our dogs also respond as part of the the Lake and
McHenry Counties Structural Rescue Teams. When a building
falls down they ask us to send in dogs to pinpoint people
buried under the rubble so they can start the long process
of rescue in the right place.
We do not answer the call of individuals or families because
this could interfere in a police investigation or a search
may have been called off for the safety of the searchers. If
called by police, firefighters or emergency management
agencies we respond and will answer as a team to all of
Illinois and southern Wisconsin.
