Admin’s Note

The news of the recent earthquake in Venezuela reminds us once again of the tragedy caused by natural disasters and the magnitude of their impact. In particular, reports of a young girl’s hand being found strongly emphasize the weight of each individual life. As rescue operations continue, the role of international rescue dogs is also gaining attention, and it pains me to think about how much their presence contributes to saving lives. This has made me realize that we too need to reconsider our preparedness for natural disasters.
