On April 18, the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department was alerted to a family who was searching for a 49-year-old woman.
The woman, who had a traumatic brain injury, was reported missing after she failed to return home from a walk.
Authorities searched for hours but had no luck tracking the woman down. That’s when deputies decided to call in Keva and Naji, two bloodhounds they hoped could help lead them to the woman.

Did she have this traumatic brain injury before or after this incident? It's not really clear.

Not with that brain injury that may disorient her just at the wrong time. She is very lucky to have been found at all while still breathing.
Beautiful Dawgs.
I’ve been hiking there when I was a kid and the ravines are 200 feet.
Dogs are very useful and work well with humans.
Cats are arrogant food processers.
One would need a battery powered electric can opener for a cat to find you.
“Try that with a cat.”
LOL! Funny, right on!
Doggy ping!!!!
Another reason why dogs are better than cats.
Wow, some forget we’re in the domain of the Viking Kitties!
What happens when soldier dads finally come home to their cats?

🥹 Heroic! 🐕
It worked for my cat when she got up a tree. We brought the electric can opener out on a long extension cord cord. “Whir, whir, whir” and down climbs the cat
