LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Police are using a special K-9 unit to search for missing Kentucky mother Savannah Spurlock.

The 22-year-old Spurlock was last seen leaving a bar in Lexington on Jan. 4. She was with two men. Police have questioned both men, but have not made any arrests.

Police have not said whether they suspect foul play in her disappearance.

Cajun Coast's Commander, Toney Wade, told WKYT Spurlock's safe return is his team's motivation.

"I can only imagine what their family is going through with their mother not being there," said Wade. "The children missing their mother is one of the driving forces to kind of keep us going in these situations."
