Can my beagle be trained in S&R?

Full Question:
I am currently involved with a non-profit organization that assists w/ search and rescues and other public safety related situations... The director has allowed me to be our S&R canine officer - the problem is... I currently have a female beagle/Dalmatian mix (75lbs, short hair, age: 5 yrs) who is a doll to play with and is very obedient. Do you think my pet would be able to be trained to conduct a search? And is there any way for me to do some trials that would let me know?

Thanks in advance.

No, I do not think your dog can do this. I can only compare it to this: you would not take a truck to a Formula One race.
