From his partner Lori:
"Buster is an 11 1/2 year old Louisiana Catahoula Leopard dog.
Currently
Certified as a volunteer Search and Rescue K9 with CARDA and the LA
County Sheriff's Department. Buster has been involved in K9 SAR since
2000. He works as a scent specific Trailing dog. He has had "walk
up finds" as well as providing clues and direction of travel to
assist Law Enforcement in finding the
missing
"He loves his "job" and you can't get into the truck
fast enough when the pager goes off! Truly an inherent love to work.
A very happy go luck boy. I am truly blessed to have such a great partner!."
