Get “rescued” by a search dog!

We need Dogsbody volunteers for our Sunday training sessions.

You hide (safe spot, we choose)

They find you (lots of tail wags + muddy paws)

You help train life-saving dogs

Sundays | Half day | Staffordshire

5 YEARS LATER… WE’VE LOCATED THE REAL LOST ONE: OUR TWITTER ACCOUNT

Went missing in 2019. No signal. No clues. Just vibes.
Today, we staged the ultimate digital rescue and it worked.

We're cold, dehydrated, and unsure how hashtags work now…

But we’re BACK.
