Kacy is Uintah's partner - here is what she says about Uintah:
"Uintah and I are
with Rocky Mountain Rescue Dogs.
We are an all volunteer rescue team who provides our services to any
police agency requesting them. We do wilderness/area searches, avalanche
rescues, water recovery, disaster recovery, human tracking/trailing,
and cadaver. We train weekly with our dogs and then once a month as
a group.
"Uintah is a 2
1/2 year old Golden Retriever. She was my graduation present from
my husband. I drove from Connectiuct to Wyoming
on my
way home to Utah to get her, and we have been inseparable since then.
She was named because of the Uinta Mountains here in Utah and is living
up to her name. She is an amazing search and rescue dog, because there
is nothing in this world she loves more than people. She gets a huge
smile on her face when someone-anyone-is paying attention to her. She
is wonderful with kids and older people, and she becomes a little ham
when anyone has a camera. Her favorite trick is wave bye-bye, but she
can also spin, rewind, stick-um-up, be shy, play dead, high 5, shake,
and crawl. She is truly my best friend, my partner, my entertainment
and my world."
Thank you, Kacy,
Uintah and all the other handlers & dogs
out there that dedicate so much time and money to save us from harm.
If you are
a member of Search & Rescue, K-9 or Mounted Patrol, please allow
me to paint a small portrait for you at no charge, in gratitude for
your service.
