Search dogs that were trained and certified in Southern California have been mobilized in their own backyard, combing through the devastation left behind by the wildfires raging in Los Angeles County.
Five teams that were trained by the Search Dog Foundation in Ventura County are searching the rubble of homes and businesses destroyed by the Palisades Fire in coastal L.A. and the Eaton Fire in the San Gabriel Valley.
The highly trained dogs and their human handlers are bringing their expertise to the Los Angeles area, searching for living survivors as well as human remains detection.
Denise Sanders, Senior Director of Communications & Search Team Operations for Search Dog Foundation, joined LiveNOW from FOX to discuss.
