Our club has the resources to support multiple types of area searches, tracking, mantrailing, and tentative areas for rubble and water searches. The area search can use either the desert environment or a forested area. We currently have 50 acres of desert landscape available for searches and over 100 acres of forested area for searches. Mantrailing can take place in either urban, rural, or desert areas. The obedience and dexterity location will take place at the club field, which has a field that meets USCA and IRO requirements.
