Bloodhound Saves Man with Dementia

A bloodhound named Lizzy saved the day when she tracked down a 71-year-old man with dementia in just 17 minutes—faster than anyone can find their keys. Called in by Bolingbrook police, Lizzy followed the scent of a jacket the man had worn to locate him safely in a gravel spot. He was alert and expected to recover fully. This heroic rescue highlights the lifesaving power of K-9 units—and the Will County Sheriff’s Office also offers free scent kits to families caring for loved ones with Alzheimer’s, autism, or dementia, helping prevent and solve missing person cases before they become emergencies.
