Camping!

We are often called out to search for someone who may be in a tent,so today we put up a tent in the woods to get the dogs thinking about this. It was also quite interesting to notice how the dogs found the scent, which was not the same as someone who was not in a tent!
I did have to explain myself to an elderly couple who were out walking their dog though, as they were worried about walking past me in the tent.
When one of the Search dogs (Who shall remain nameless) found me, they leapt onto the tent, and subsequently me! So anyone who is thinking of going camping with one of our team members....make sure he leaves his dog behind!

Propped against a tree in the middle of a wood.

Some of the sights we see when hiding in the woods waiting to be found by one of the Search dogs!
Its really beautiful sometimes.

Turning back the clock

Back in the day, before I joined this team, and when my dog was younger we were part of a different search team.
