Our mission is to develop professional Missing Animal Response Services. We will achieve our mission by training and empowering professional pet detectives (Missing Animal Response Technicians) with certified search dogs who will conduct CSI-like investigative searches that bring lost dogs, cats, and other companion animals back home.
Kathy "Kat" Albrecht is a former police officer, field training officer, police detective, and K9 (police bloodhounds and cadaver dogs) trainer turned pet detective. During her ten-year career as a search dog handler, Albrecht and her dogs located physical evidence, missing people, and criminals. In 1996, Albrecht's bloodhound A.J. escaped from his yard and was missing. In her panic, Albrecht brought in another search dog that she used to successfully track down A.J. This is what sparked the idea, "Why not train dogs to track lost pets?" In their first four searches, Albrecht and her search dog Rachel physically located two lost cats and one lost dog. Since 1997, Albrecht has effectively utilized law enforcement techniques and technologies to recover lost pets and has trained several other search dogs and human pet detectives. In 2001, Albrecht founded Missing Pet Partnership, a national nonprofit organization that is working to research the behavioral patterns of lost pets, educate pet owners in how to properly search for a lost pet, and educate animal shelter staff and volunteers in the science of lost pet behavior. In 2004, Albrecht founded Pet Hunters International, a pet detective academy that will train and certify Missing Animal Response Technicians, Investigators, and MAR search dogs trained to locate lost pets.
