REDOG helps buried and missing people: by providing training for teams with search and rescue dogs as well as specialists in technical detection. Official agencies and private individuals can contact REDOG around the clock on 0844 441 144. 

In the event of natural disasters, explosions or collapsed buildings, REDOG cooperates with emergency services, cantonal authorities, crisis committees and partner organisations in Switzerland and abroad.

The police alerts REDOG about missing persons in Switzerland. These are often elderly people, hikers and mushroom pickers. They all have one thing in common: They may be in a life-threatening predicament where every second counts.

Thanks to donations, missing person searches are free of charge for next of kin in Switzerland. REDOG cooperates with the police in all cases.
