Marlowe
- a Search & Rescue Bloodhound
with CARDA
From his owner, Lori
(She and her husband have 3 certified dogs.) -
We are certified
and deploy with CARDA through out California and locally with
the Los Angeles Sheriff's dept. Volunteer Search Dogs. In both
groups we search in the wilderness and urban environments for
lost people. Usually lost hikers and Alzheimers patients. Marlowe
is a scent specific Trailing dog. With the use of a scent article
from the missing person we set out to get a direction of travel,
find clues or trail many miles to the missing person.
Marlowe is a 7.5 year
old Bloodhound. certified for 4 years. He is also an AKC Champion
show dog. but don't let that make you think that he's "snooty".
He just LOVES to ride in the pick-up truck
" [The portrait]
came yesterday. Absolutely gorgeous! My family was very impressed
with your talent. Thanks so much." - Lori
