They had no way of knowing Hurricane Harvey would flog and flood their region two weeks before the ceremony in Bretagne’s honor.</p><p>In fact, Bretagne’s longtime handler and owner, Denise Corliss, just completed a two-week search-and-rescue deployment in areas hit especially hard by Harvey. Corliss took time off from her job as an electrical engineer so she could travel to Rockport, Ingleside and other devastated Texas communities with her current search dog, Taser.
