This week, students were lucky enough to meet Andy Colau and his Search and Rescue dogs Belle and Kez. Andy explained how he trained his dogs, and even practiced some of the training techniques on the students! It's always great to have industry experts in the classroom, and his session really inspired and engaged students. Thank you, Andy!
