There are still three people missing at the site of the collapse.
The dogs are referred to as"live and cadaver canines," trained to detect humans, alive or dead, city officials said.
Officials made a formal request for the team's assistance for additional support with recovery operations Wednesday. The state's Urban Search and Rescue Task Force returned the next day. The three missing residents were identified as Branden Colvin, 42, Ryan Hitchcock, 51, and Daniel Prien, 60. The three men were described as having a"high probability" of being home when the building partially collapsed.Seven people were rescued early, officials said, and another was later pulled out. More than a dozen others were escorted out of the building as they were"self evacuating," Carlsten said.
