Disaster Dog Podcast

Disaster Dog Podcast is the first show dedicated entirely to the world of Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) canines. Hosted by Rami Elshareif and Mike Vitale—both experienced USAR handlers—the podcast creates a space within the working dog community focused on the unique challenges and triumphs of disaster response.

Each episode dives into topics such as training methods, canine selection, deployment experiences, and the evolving landscape of disaster work in the United States and beyond. Our mission is to highlight the voices of handlers and bring their stories directly to the community, while offering insights, lessons learned, and inspiration for anyone passionate about USAR dogs.
