The SHS is not an institution of the government of Germany and also not attached to organisations like the red cross / halfmoon.

The SHS is a free, private, independent organization.

We do not receive financial support and almost no donations for our aid. All applications, the equipment, the training and the dogs we pay ourselves.

The SHS is not instruction-bound for an institution. We are perfectly self-sufficient and can concern perfectly unbureaucratically.

For us it doesn't matter the country, state, system, religion, skin color at all - our job is only help victims who need us.
