Louisiana Search and Rescue Dog Team

A nonprofit organization

The members of Louisiana Search and Rescue K9 Team (LaSAR) have made a commitment to assist the community by training dogs and their handlers to excel in the rescue or recovery of those in need and to work in conjunction with law enforcement agencies to bring about a successful conclusion to a search. It is this commitment to the community which remains the guiding force behind LaSAR.

We require our our dog and handler teams to pass and maintain a Ham Radio license and to pass a yearly national certification standards test to be deployable in the field.

Our team dogs are capable of working in wilderness and urban environments, buildings, vehicles and water.

Since being founded in 1991 our team has responded over 800 times to calls for service. The team has deployed to calls for service in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Oklahoma, Arizona, Missouri, Alaska, and Canada.
