For a search request for a missing person or lost pet,  

The reason for us requesting all this information before we agree to help you is because we average about 4 calls a day between missing persons and or lost pets from around teh world. We prioritize our missions. We're an International Search and Rescue Team. This means we respond ANYWHERE on planet earth.  

So please no more questions such as "Do you provide service in New York, or LA, Ca.? the obvious answer is YES.
Once' you've sent us the info we requested by email and then texted the 503-705-0258 then, and only then call and leave a message on our office # at 360-414-8093.
We're trying to cut back on the # of incoming and outgoing calls to our office and cellular phones. You can help us help you by following our guidelines.

Here's our fee schedule.
Travel costs.
If we're driving, we charge $25.00 per hour (each way) from Longview, Washington to your location and back. We also charge for the cost of fuel, meals, motels, any other travel expenses. 

If it's a short travel and search to and from Portland, Ore. or Seattle, Washington, you will not usually be asked to pay for any motel costs. We'll give you an estimate of what the search will cost before you sign the contract. 

Search fees are $50.00 per fifteen minutes of searching. Most pet searches last between five minutes and two hours.

Most person searches last between 30 minutes and 6 hours. 

You must sign a contract for services before we respond.  

We accept cash only in US Currency. No credit cards or checks of any kind are accepted. 

Flying. We fly first class only to and from the search site. (Unless it's a helicopter flight or a small fixed wing aircraft, or the flight is less then 2 hours.   

We fly out of Portland, Oregon. We fly all airlines except SW airlines as they openly discriminate against service animals and search and rescue dogs. 

You must follow our instructions above and email and text us. Contact our coordinator, obtain and complete a contract for services, then you must pay for our airfare and make reservations for the search and rescue dog to fly IN CABIN with the search and rescue dog handler.  

You must also make reservations at a motel / hotel.  

Send us the confirmation codes for the airlines ticket and the motel reservations. The room must be 100% non smoking. LaQuinta is a great motel for our search dog teams. 

We'll need transportation from the airport to the motel and then to the search area and back again. Unless we rent a vehicle. 

Person transporting the search dog team(s) must be a NON SMOKER, and at no time will he / she transport our search dog team(s) with any of the transporters pet(s) on board the same vehicle at the time of transport.
It's not a bad idea to bring along a blanket or large towel for the search dog(s) to lay on while being transported.
We average between 550 and 750 calls a year. With you providing the above information in the listed format, you will help us help you bring closurer to your case. We have a 99% success ratio of either finding the victim, or finding out what happened to them, picked up, killed, where this occured, etc. We have 25 years of experience providing professional SAR and K9 SAR services. We can track a scent trail up to a year from when the person(s) or Pet(s) disappeared. We've documented several successes on our web site with this time line.  If this is a missing person(s) or Pet(s) request during a major disaster, tornado, fire, flood, hurricane, earthquake, please follow the above listed guidelines and we'll work with you on our fees and travel expenses.
