Kayla Hardin takes her dog, Darwin, off his leash to begin a search during a training session Saturday. Randy Bouet and Eddie Malloy assist in the search. The local K9 Search and Rescue team conducted a three-day training exercise with 11 dogs, and 30 search and rescue personnel from three states - Yavapai County, Arizona; Delta/Mesa County, Colo.; and San Diego County, Calif. The training focused on water searches, aged trails, human remains searches and GPS tracking of the dogs.
