Bernadine Beyale founded 4Corners K-9 Search and Rescue to help recover missing people in the region. The demand is high for help, especially on the Navajo Nation.

Four Corners K-9 Search and Rescue is the latest organization helping Native families find missing loved ones. They operate mostly in the Navajo Nation where resources for rescue are spare. For Rocky Mountain Community Radio, KZMU’s Justin Higginbottom spoke with the founder of the group about what she and her two dogs find in the deserts of this region.
