Search & Rescues

Supporting energetic dogs with complimentary food

To ensure the dogs are in peak condition for such a strenuous and energetic role we support 8 search and rescue teams with free Burns food.

We currently sponsor nine search and rescue teams across the UK. The dogs are trained in techniques that enable them to locate people who are in need of their help and support in the rescue:
