Decoys will be playing the role of a passenger and might be asked to carry a training aid in an active airport setting. Volunteers must be over the age of 18 and available to assist the canine team for approximately 3 to 4 hours. Times needed are flexible and can be discussed with the coordinator. Minors are permitted to volunteer if accompanied by an adult. We look forward to working with you! During this time you will be asked to carry a training aid either in a piece of luggage, carry on bag or on your person during the training exercise. Meet the friendly faces of canine teams providing security for transportation all around the bay area.
