Dog handlers for narcotics detection dogs are first and foremost law enforcement officers. Handlers are chosen from within departments for additional training to be partnered with a narcotics detection dog.
Look in the pets column, in the newspaper advertisements, you sometimes see them free to good home in there. You could try a rescue centre, costs are lower and the dog has been temperament checked.
Information on the training of search and rescue dogs can be found on the website of the Ohio Valley Search and Rescue team. On the site there is a brief overview of how they train their dogs.
A German Shepherd dog can be used for many purposes, including rescue work and helping the handicapped by being a guide or therapy dog. The work any dog does depends on the training it receives.

No, not on a general basis. They are trained to find people, but will follow any scent indicated by their handler. Occasionally handlers are willing to aid in the search for missing pets, but that is up to each individual and is not a requirement of search and rescue dogs.Other contributors have said: No, not on a general basis. They are trained to find people, but every so often if they find a dog/cat that's alive they will save them too.
