MinnSARDA in Action

The Minnesota Search and Rescue Dog Association (MinnSARDA) was established in 1981 as a nonprofit charitable organization. Since its inception, MinnSARDA has grown to be one of the most recognized canine search and rescue teams in Minnesota and the surrounding areas. The unit provides specially trained dog/handler teams to assist public safety agencies in lost person searches, drowning recoveries and homicide investigations. In some cases, MinnSARDA may be available for out of state missions. All services are offered free of cost to requesting agencies.
