SEARCHDOG is an 84 minute feature documentary that immerses the viewer in the powerful, inspiring, and life-saving bonds shared by Search & Rescue specialists and their dogs.  This award-winning film chronicles how Matthew Zarrella turns "unadoptable" dogs into true heroes and reveals how the trust and training of a dog is the difference between life and death for missing victims.

Packed with passion, humor, and "treats," SEARCHDOG shows what's possible when two species work together, rely on each other, and dedicate their lives to saving others.

SEARCHDOG gathered first hand footage during real-time missing person K9 searches and trainings, and filmed over 4.5 years.  We continue to be deeply connected to and excited by the extraordinary work of K9 handlers – Professionals and Volunteers alike.
