Search Dogs Sussex

Serving the Community – Saving Lives

What We Do

Our primary function is to provide nationally qualified search and rescue dog teams that can respond to search and rescue (SAR) emergencies in order to search for and recover those who are missing, vulnerable or in distress. We do this as a member team of Lowland Rescue.

We support Sussex Police by providing this emergency on-call service 365 days a year, 7 days a week throughout Sussex and the UK.

How Our Dogs Search

Our dogs are trained and assessed to detect and follow any human scent they come across rather than detecting the scent of one particular person. They are capable of picking up the scent of someone they’ve never come across before.
