Firefighter Paul Januario is part of California Task Force 7, based in Sacramento, and has been a firefighter for 16 years. Interested in working with Search Dogs since the beginning of his career, he is excited to transition from helping with drills to having his own Search Dog. Paul is paired with Bear, who was donated by a private citizen in Northern California. The team will return home to Sacramento where he looks forward to training with Bear in preparation for certification and eventual deployment.
