Right after we sent our trainers off to Germany on 19.07.2013, we got some sad news. Unfortunately, we lost Gypsy, a valuable dog member of the Akut Istanbul Canine Search Unit, in the morning of the same day as her illness suddenly worsened. We would like to share the deep sadness experienced over the loss of Gypsy, one of Turkey’s first certified live search dogs. We will not forget you, Gypsy!
