Branching Out Pottery was honored to be commissioned to create these two memorial tributes for Ana and Dusty,
two beloved trailblazers in the nationwide canine Search and Rescue program.  Along with a third dog, Harley,
they set a high bar - demonstrating remarkable skills and an unwavering commitment to service.

The tile above was presented as a memorial tribute to Ana's handler and team partner, Sacramento Fire Captain, Rick Lee.

Below, Dusty is pictured with her handler and partner  Captain Randy Gross (along with Ana and Capt. Lee) on site at the
World Trade Center, NYC, September 2001. Tile was presented to Capt. Gross.
