Our community,
our responsibility.

CSDA members are active in our community. Not only do our members spend hundreds of hours training for searches, they also volunteer their time and knowledge to assist others.

Throughout the year, our members attend various events to educate the public about the CSDA and to familiarize the public with our search dogs and their handlers. At these events, the public gets an opportunity to get up close and personal with our dogs. Our handlers can answer questions and may even do demonstrations if the venue will allow it.
