So grateful for a dunk tank on a warm summer Saturday. 🎾 💦 (and also Rusty's bday cookies...those were a hit for the K9s!)

We always enjoy hanging with our community partners and meeting new friends, both two-legged and four-legged.

Thanks for hosting a fun event Boulder Rural Fire Rescue | Boulder County, Colorado !

FRRD is saddened to share the passing of Ki, beloved partner to FRRD Emeritus member April.
Ki was a dedicated Human Remains Detection (HRD) dog and a valued member of our search-and-rescue community. Her years of service alongside April will always be remembered.
May you have plenty of balls and toys over the rainbow bridge, Ki. 🌈🐾❤️

Team bonding, hours of fun training scenarios, gorgeous mountain sunsets, a gas-fueled campfire in an ammo box, Jenny Paddock's famous sourdough pancakes, and training navigation skills with paper maps. FRRD Camping Weekend 2026🏕️

Yesterday’s mission came with a bonus plot twist: weather rerouted the helicopter to a different airport on the way back. 😅

Cheers to our rockstar "Uber” driver for switching the pick up location without missing a beat. (Turns out we didn't really need helmets for this leg of the journey)
5 stars, would ride again. 🚁➡️🚗

But seriously…massive shoutout to Jenny Paddock 🙌 A great reminder that you don’t have to be in the field to be mission-critical.

We’re fortunate to be part of a SAR community that values training alongside our response partners.

Clear communication and collaboration help us work more efficiently when it counts. We had a very successful training this weekend, identifying ways to combine our skills with technologies like drones, to improve effectiveness in the field.

Understanding each other’s strengths makes us more effective for those we serve. 💪 🐾

Who dis?! 😍

Meet Tripp 🐾 Front Range Rescue Dogs newest K9-in-training and Michael Huddleston newest pup.

Tripp is a McNabb Shepherd. Known for their stamina and ability to analyze and solve problems quickly, McNabb's make great search dogs. Tripp is so excited to get his day going that he's been regularly waking Mike up around 4am before the sun rises... 🤪

We're pumped to support these two as they work to become another FRRD K9 search team!

Luckily he is an Australian Shepherd with super cool blue eyes, not a White Walker. 😆🐺❄️

Today may be the last day of Canine Fitness Month, but we’re just getting warmed up! Summer training has started and we’re working hard to stay fit — good thing we love every minute of it. 💪☀️

Cheers to the dogs (and their humans) who never stop moving!
