BECOMING A SARDA MEMBER

K9 Handlers
Search dog training is a highly rewarding activity that creates a unique bond between handler and dog: each handler owns their own dog or dogs, who live with them. Our home/training ground is at Crib Point on the Mornington Peninsula and we use other various sites around Melbourne Metro and country Victoria to provide diverse search scenarios.
Our training calendar advises that we are available to train 3 weekends out of four.
