SARDA Ireland have been tasked by South Eastern Mountain Rescue Association and An Garda Síochána to assist in an ongoing search for a female walker is missing in the Comeragh mountains since yesterday.

Yesterday, search dog teams Mick and Ziggy and Louise and Lyla searched the area until early in the morning. Mick and Ziggy have resumed searching this morning, and will soon be joined by search dog teams Martina and Ella and Sean and Cody.

Rescue 117 have been involved in the search since yesterday, and other mountain rescue teams are assisting, including Glen of Imaal Mountain Rescue, Dublin-Wicklow Mountain Rescue Team and Kerry Mountain Rescue Team.

SEMRA have asked walkers in the Nire Valley, Rathgormack or Mahon Falls areas to keep an eye out for anything unusual and to contact the Gardai or SEMRA.

On Tuesday, SARDA Ireland were tasked by South Eastern Mountain Rescue Association to assist with a walker who had become disoriented in mist and cloud while descending from Galtee Mor.

Dog teams Éadaoin and Murphy and Mick and Ziggy responded to the callout and joined SEMRA search parties. The missing walker was located by SEMRA and escorted down the hill shortly before 7pm.

When going hillwalking, always remember to have your phone charged, and have sufficient gear (headtorch, map, compass, warm clothing etc.) and extra food, should conditions change or you require assistance from mountain rescue. MR teams respond as speedily as possible, but it may still take time for MR to reach you on the hill. 🐾🏃🏻🏕⛰

**Callout 32**

Last night, Search Dog Ziggy was called out with his Mountain Rescue Team, South Eastern Mountain Rescue Association, to the Comeragh Mountains for 2 hillwalkers who got caught out in the dark. The SEMRA callout officer was able to establish a location for the pair, high in the mountains, using PhoneFind.
The dog team and 3 SEMRA members made their way to the location where the pair were safe and well and then helped them down the route.
2 other search parties from SEMRA were out in support and Search Dog Lyla was stood down at the RV.
Everybody was off the mountains by 11.30pm.

We at SARDA Ireland are remembering our friend and colleague Caitríona Lucas today.

Four years ago, Caitríona responded to a callout with her fellow Coast Guard volunteers to assist in a search off the Co. Clare coast. During this operation, Caitríona tragically lost her life.

Caitríona was also a member of SARDA Ireland, where alongside her dog Zac, she dedicated so much time to not just one rescue organisation, but two. Together, they were a qualified dog team for 7 years and responded to many SARDA callouts.

Go Maridís Beo ❤️

**Callout 31""

Last night, Search Dog Ziggy was out with his Mountain Rescue Team South Eastern Mountain Rescue Association on a search for 2 hillwalkers that had become disorientated in the Comeragh Mountains due to poor visbility. The pair were located safe and well by a SEMRA search party and escorted off the mountains. Search dogs Murphy and Ella were stood down en-route.

Good boy Ziggy! 🏆

Did you know Ziggy loves sausages? Perhaps his handler might give Ziggy a piece of sausage for every like this post gets! 🐾

*Callout 27 and 28*

SARDA Ireland had a busy day yesterday.

Yesterday morning we were tasked to search for a high risk missing person in Co. Limerick. Two of our search dog teams were en route when the missing person was found safe and well.

Late last night, we were tasked again by An Garda Síochána to a missing persons incident in the Waterford area where 2 children had been reported missing. 2 of our dog teams responded to the callout, and just as the first team arrived on scene, the 2 missing children were found safe and well by the AGS.

Other agencies involved in last night’s search:
South Eastern Mountain Rescue Association
Bonmahon Coast Guard

It is common to be stood down en route to missing person search as the missing person is found quickly. This is the best possible news when responding to a search as the sooner a person is found, the higher the probability that they are found safe and well as they have not been exposed to the elements for long.

A successful outcome in both cases.

Well done to Trainee Search Dog Croía who passed her obedience test last week with flying colours! 🏆🐾

Each of our dogs must pass an obedience test and a stock test to become an official SARDA Green Tag (training) dog. Croía and her handler Niall Devery are one step closer to earning that tag, and we are sure that she will do excellent in her Stock Test also.

Isn't she a good girl?! 🙌

*𝗖𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝟮𝟲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗗𝗼𝗴 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗱*

SARDA Ireland were tasked at 01.05am this morning to assist in the search for a missing 77 year old man in the Glanmire area.

Three of our search dog teams responded to the callout, Louise and Lyla were first on scene and began searching from the point last seen (PLS). Following this Éadaoin and Murph, and Gerry and Fia arrived and began a hasty search along paths, around buildings and other key features in the search area, while Adrian set up base and managed the search/communications throughout the search.

The search area had a large amount of woodland and farmland with crop fields, which can be hard to search using human searchers during daylight, and even more complex during the night. However, a search dog is very useful in these terrains. With their powerful noses, they are able to detect human scent from far away, and most importantly, identify which direction the missing person is located.

Whilst searching along a track road at approximately 03.30am, search dog Murphy detected human scent coming from the adjoining crop field and took off into the area, where she found the missing person. Murphy then lead Eadaoin to the missing person. At this point Éadaoin took over and provided medical assistance and along with members of Cork City Missing Persons Search and Recovery, assisted the gentleman out of the area.

The gentleman was assessed by a doctor and although he was cold and hungry, he was thankfully otherwise uninjured.

SARDA Ireland was tasked to a missing person callout in Waterford. Search dog teams Mick and Ziggy, Gerry and Fia and Éadaoin and Murph responded. The missing person was thankfully found safe and well.

After the teams were stood down, the dogs decided to have a socially distant debriefing session. They have had a busy weekend of it and I’m sure they are looking forward to getting home to their beds!

SARDA was tasked yesterday by An Garda Síochána to search for a missing child on a Wexford beach. As dog teams were responding we were stood down when the child was thankfully found safe and well. Rescue 117 also responded to this callout.

Many children are reported missing in Ireland every day and are subsequently found safe and well. If your child goes missing, do not hesitate to get in contact with the Gardaí as soon as possible.

Lyla and Louise are an amazing search dog team! This photo was taken today, on Lyla’s 10th birthday!

Our dogs have a busy day lined up... 🐕

Which SARDA dog are you today? 😂

Let us know in the comments and tag your friends to see how they are doing 🤗

Stay home, stay safe 🐕

Say hello to Fred. 😍 Fred is not a SARDA dog, but he has had a hand, or a paw rather, in the training of many of our qualified search dogs over the last 10 or 11 years...

You see, Fred is a sheepdog 🐑 and along with his owner, Terry Brophy, Fred lets prospective SARDA search dogs come to his farm 🚜 to see how they behave around sheep in a test called Stock Testing. Stock Testing makes sure that a SARDA dog does not get distracted by sheep etc. when searching for a missing person, and is critical to any search dog's success 🏆

See the ball toy 🥎 that Fred is lying on? One of our search dogs left it behind at Fred's farm earlier in the year, and Fred has become a little attached to it! Maybe he is missing seeing our SARDA dogs due to social distancing!

Fred, you can keep the toy! We owe you and Terry a lot more for all your assistance over the years, and we look forward to seeing you again soon! 🐾

** Callout 14 **

Glen of Imaal Mountain Rescue team were tasked by An Garda Síochána at 22.25 last night to a missing person in Glenealy, Co. Wicklow. Glen of Imaal MRT requested the assistance of SARDA Ireland to conduct a hasty search in an area that the missing person was known to walk in.

Upon arrival, SARDA Ireland handler Martina assisted with coordination of the hasty search and began searching a forest track with search dog Ella. A navigator was provided by Glen of Imaal MRT.

Thankfully, the missing person was sound safe and well walking on a nearby road.

SARDA Ireland would like to thank Glen of Imaal MRT for their hospitality and assistance during the callout.
