What kind of dog breeds are used for wilderness SAR?
Most working and herding dogs are suitable to work in the Virginian wilderness during any season. German Shepherds, Border Collies, Golden Retrievers, Labradors, Belgian Malinois, etc. are the predominant choices. Though, you do not have to have a dog to part of our team. We have volunteer opportunities that don’t require even owning a dog. to learn more, see our Volunteer section.
