Like most of our animals, Noah, a golden retriever, was brought to the CCSPCA as a stray. He was a high-energy, active dog and we knew he would be a great listener. We work with many different organizations in order to give our animals the best life for them and so they can find their “furever” home. In Noah’s case his personality traits tipped off our staff to send him off to the Search Dog Foundation. This organization trains and certifies dogs to search and rescue with their firefighter partners. The dogs spend eight months in professional training and receiving the TLC they deserve.
Noah has undergone the professional training and received his advanced FEMA certification. He has been partnered with his firefighter and handler, Mark Schroeder! They are now deployable whenever disaster strikes the nation. Noah and Mr. Schroeder have already been called to duty out of state twice this year. They responded to the tornado in Moore, Oklahoma and the disastrous floods in Boulder County, Colorado just this year. Here’s to many more successful deployments Noah and Mark!
