IFSI- SDONA Classes"Have you ever thought about wanting to become a Search and Rescue (SAR) Dog Handler but were not sure how or where to start? This class is for you! The Illinois Fire Service Institute (IFSI), in collaboration with the Search Dog Organization of North America (SDONA) is pleased to offer an informational seminar to presents basic information about SAR Dogs through lectures, demonstrations and practical field exercises. The class encourages active participation and discussion and is especially valuable for those already involved in First Responder activites, such as Fire Fighters or EMTs. Attendance with a dog is welcome, but not required."
