Tips for finding lost dogs: • Post flyers everywhere – make sure there is a large, colorful picture that clearly shows your pup. Dogs can travel farther and faster than you expect, so cast a wide net. And don’t assume that busy roads are effective barriers – dogs can get across those. • Check in with local vets, rescues, and shelters. And keep checking in with them. Post your information on every social media site that you’re active on. Don’t rely on just one. PawBoost and Maryland - Lost Dogs, Cats, & Pets are both good resources. • Dogs tend to find one place to stay during the day, and are more active right around sunrise and at night. So those are the best times to go looking. • Set out food & water and blankets or clothing with familiar scents on them for the pup to track. • If you spot your dog don’t run towards (or after) them – the pup may get spooked and keep running. Try to initiate play instead, that may bring your pup close enough to catch. Check in with your neighbors (go door to door) and anyone you see walking dogs, and if it’s been a couple of days with no luck you might want to look into hiring a dog tracker. Contact the Lost Animal Resource Group Home - Lost Animal Resource Group (largcares.org) • Professional Pet Trackers Pet Tracking And Retrieval Services | Stephens City, VA (professionalpettrackers.com) or Dogs Finding Dogs https://dogsfindingdogs.com/ • If you adopted through a rescue or shelter, contact them. Most will help you in searching for your pup.
