SARDOC teams are deployed by law enforcement to locate missing and lost people across the rugged terrain of Colorado. Our members come from all walks of life but share one purpose — **to serve their communities when people need help most**. Whether you aspire to handle a certified search dog or support field operations as part of a mission-ready team, SARDOC provides the training, mentorship, and structure to help you succeed.

If you are motivated, physically capable, team-oriented, and excited to learn, you may be a great fit for our organization. The path takes commitment — but the reward is knowing that your time and skills truly matter.

When someone is lost, scared, or injured, SARDOC teams respond at the request of law enforcement. Your training and commitment directly support real-world searches that help bring people home.

Work side-by-side with your dog or support our K9 teams in the field. SARDOC provides a structured path, experienced mentors, and regular training to build real search skills.

You’ll become part of a motivated, supportive group of volunteers who take the work seriously and care for each other. We learn together, train together, and respond together.

If you feel inspired to help others, love working with dogs, and want to be part of a dedicated search and rescue team, we’d love to meet you.
