28 May 2006 - Search Dog Fruin retires
Fruin has retired from active duty with Trossachs SAR Team and NUSARDG.
Gordon Gregory has taken the decison to retire Fruin, who has located four people in his 7 yrs with the team.
Fruin lost the sight in an eye some yrs ago but recovered and went on to remain on the call-out list. However, he has started to struggle a bit recently with awkward terrain and so Gordon has taken the opportunity of there being new dogs on the call-out list to give Fruin a well earned rest!
