SEARCHING FOR YOU.........

Mission

K-9 Search and Rescue of Texas (K-9 SAR TX) is a volunteer non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation based in Houston, Texas.  K-9 SAR TX, through the use of highly trained and tested handlers and their canine partners, provides assistance to local, state and federal agencies in the search for and the recovery of lost and missing persons.  In addition, through community education programs, K-9 SAR TX strives to inform the public on how to avoid becoming lost and what to do if it happens.

In Case of an Emergency

If you are confronted with a situation involving a lost or missing person you should CONTACT LAW ENFORCEMENT IMMEDIATELY.  The sooner a search is started the better the chance for survival.  K-9 SAR TX will only respond to calls from law enforcement or the responsible local, state or federal agency. With approval from the responsible agency, K-9 SAR TX will assist other search organizations.  Our 24-hour emergency call out numbers are 713-817-2282 or 281-932-7351.  Your call will be returned immediately.
