Search Dog Network hosted an International Police Working Dog Association (IPWDA) evaluation on February 5th, 6th, and 7th, 2015. Our dogs and their people certainly worked long hours to prepare for this rigorous certification process, and all that hard work certainly paid off!

Our IPWDA evaluators were Dianne Bettis, Master Trainer and Evaluator from North Carolina and Mary Lehman, Evaluator from Texas. We invited our Response Partners to participate and wish to sincerely congratulate all Search Teams that passed:
