Day's Suzy Hears All, HC, TT
Certified Hearing Ear Dog


Owner: Linda Oleniuk
Breeder: Debbie Martin

Suzy is in service to Linda, a hearing
impaired mother of three young children. 
Suzy has saved Linda's life more than once
and as Linda says, "I haven't burned the bottom out
of any kettles since I've had Suzy."
Suzy's gentle temperament has made her more
than a service dog, she is also
the devoted companion and caretaker to "her" children.

We are hoping Beth can send us a photo soon. However, Panda is pictured below with Sirius.

Panda

Owner/Handler: Beth Barkley

It was Panda's need to do something that got Beth involved in SAR and cadaver work. In 1986 Beth and Panda were sent to the earthquakes in San Salvador as part of the US Disaster Team, where she was credited to finding four live people. In 1988 they were also sent to Armenia when an earthquake there killed thousands of people. Panda helped find many bodies so that the people could claim their loved ones. Panda had many finds in her 11 years of searching to her fabulous credit. She was truly great White Shepherd.

MANSHA'S SIRIUS
Mar 13 1988 to Mar 5 1999

Owner and Trainer: Beth Barkley
Breeder: Sharon Mann

Siri was purchased to follow in the footsteps of Panda (pictured with Beth and Siri in the top photo), Beth's first search and rescue dog. These would be big steps to fill. Sirius not only became a search and rescue dog, he also became a cadaver dog, Unfortunately, Siri had to be retired early because of a injury to a hind leg, and then a bad injury to a front leg. He later was certified as a pet therapy dog.

MANSHA'S SAR CZAR
Dec 22 1990

Owner and Trainer: Beth Barkley
Breeder: Sharon Mann

The breeding between Hoof Print Pancho and Sunlits Seika Seabreeze was repeated just to get another pup for Beth. Czar was to take his brother's place with the search and rescue work with Beth. He was a bundle of energy and Beth started him in cadaver work, and this is where Czar still excels. He has been a top cadaver dog for quite a few years now, with many finds to his credit. He also settled down enough to become a search and rescue dog. One of Czar's more notable efforts was during the Oklahoma bombing disaster where he helped find bodies.
