The Greater Houston Golden Retriever Club invites you to attend this exciting presentation following their February meeting. On Tuesday, February 17 at 7:30 p.m., GHGRC member Denise Corliss will give a talk about her experiences with her Goldens who are FEMA certified Search and Rescue dogs.There are fewer than 200 FEMA Advanced Certified Search and Rescue dogs in the U.S., and Denise has two of them: Bretagne and Aid'n. Each dog and handler must pass a rigorous national certification and teams must be re-certified every two years. There are two levels of certification: Basic and Advanced. It takes a year of training to reach Basic and many never reach Advanced. Denise was deployed with her golden Bretagne to NYC for 9-11. See the NY golden Retriever Club article "The Goldens of Ground Zero" which features a photo of Denise and Bretagne. More recently, Denise and Aid'N were profiled in the Copperfield newspaper. There is no charge for the presentation, and GBGRR volunteers will provide refreshments. Please r.s.v.p. We hope to see you there!
