  www.rrobserver.com wrote: KT and her canine roommate, a 5-year-old Dutch shepherd named Quattro, are the first-ever search-and-rescue dogs to be part of a county rescue team. They're the newest members of the Rio Grande Basin Heavy Technical Rescue Team, made up of Rio Rancho, Sandoval County and Corrales firefighters.
  Dave said Quattro came from the Netherlands to be a police dog, but was too friendly for patrol work. So, Dave adopted him at 18 months old and trained him in Schutzhund, a German dog sport involving tracking and obedience.

So far, there are no credible leads, but the hunt is one for 'Warrant'. The police department has handed out 2,000 missing fliers in the area. Officer David Wall said he's sick to his stomach that his partner is gone.
