Grrreat Book!, October 7, 2006
Reviewer: C. Sanders
This is an excellent book for anyone interested in learning about search and rescue or for anyone already involved in search and rescue wanting to learn more. It offers detailed information on positive based training techniques for various search and rescue situations. Also enclosed is a chapter detailing different types of urban searches with diagrams of various building searches and safety information. There is also a great chapter on how the dog's nose works! All in all, an excellent book full of great knowledge for any search and rescue trainer or novice interested in the subject!
