Bark Alert by Mary Ann Warren, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

We all know about the 5 Ws of journalism: who, what, where, when and why. They are basic questions that are also considered when responding to a search. In order to prepare for a search incident, we could also ask ourselves these questions when training and maintaining our dogs. - Who will we be looking for? Male or female, adult or child? - What will we be looking for? Evidence and/or remains? - Where will we be looking? What type of terrain will we be searching in? - When will we be looking? Did the incident just happen, or is it historical? - Why are we looking? Criminal or overdue? These 5 Ws can all be recreated through training. It will keep our minds tuned in to searching and not just setting out sources and running the dog. The proofing and testing, as described in this book, will keep us as a dog team, or the dog teams we train, fluid, and prevent everyone from becoming stagnant. This book was written for the handler or trainer to promote thinking outside the box when preparing the dog team for searching in the field of human-remains detection. | Bark Alert by Mary Ann Warren, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
