Meet Xander
Xander's indication is a Stay & Bark, and his 'subject' was up in a blind.
Video of Xander in Stay-&-Bark Exercise
Xander, SAR K-9, comes in at high speed. He's following the scent of 2 people up in a blind. He works through a scent cone in side-to-side patterns. The wind was coming from behind us, and his experience has taught him to look UP for subjects as well as finding them on the ground. Watch him follow our scent in, right to the base of the blind we're laying on. Xander is trained to stay and bark, though he also tried to climb the ladder to 'find' us!
