Description
The Ohio Federation of K9 Search Teams, Inc. developed from a shared interest on the part of Ohio search dog handlers to standardize the requirements for certification. Founded by eight search dog groups and independent handlers, the Federation developed a constitution, bylaws, evaluation standards/criteria, a code of ethics and committee structure.
The Federations first Search Dog Conference with the Ohio EMA was held in the fall of 1996. These events have included: Internationally known search dog handlers, forensic anthropologists, and other well known instructors who have spoken at the conferences, directed actual field teaching, and/or served as evaluators for the members.
The Federation currently holds quarterly business meetings. Interested non-member K9 search teams and individuals are invited to attend, as well as emergency and/or law enforcement agencies. Meeting dates, locations and time can be found on our online events calendar .
