Bosco in Black Mountain, NC 2007

 

· Bosco, a European black and tan bloodhound, began search and rescue training in early 2007. Filled with energy and enthusiasm, Bosco is making great progress in his training and relishes in following urban and rural trails set by volunteers. Bosco’s training schedule includes running trails in all seasons and weather conditions, day and night, to aid in his search and rescue conditioning.

 

· Training is just as much a learning experience for the dog handler as the bloodhound. Maintaining detailed training logs is essential to document Bosco’s credibility in the courtroom.

 

· Bosco attended training for Beginning Trailing in Fall 2007, where he worked with experienced handlers in the search and rescue field. He has advanced to Intermediate Trailing and we realize his eagerness and determination will make him a successful search and rescue dog. It is very exciting to see Bosco serve his purpose as a working dog.

 

· Bosco attended intermediate training for trailing in January 2008 with the Central Georgia K9 Search & Rescue Seminar. Bosco worked in the unusual cold temperatures and rain. His trails included many distractions and courses that where on all types of terrain including tunnels with flowing water.
