Found tips Cute pup-know that you may get requests for people wanting to add it to their home, before you’ve had a chance to find the owner. Please say no. FOUND pet tips Hi😊 Please note that lately regular people are CLAIMING to be a rescue so they can just go and pick up a dog, and then the owners never get their dog back. Please ask for the name and make sure to get solid verification. Look for reviews. Apologies for duplications of any good tips already posted for you. You may already know how to do this, but here’s a list of tips that I share, which can also help others, who may not know of these things. And no negativity intended with this list of tips. Thank you very much for keeping this little one(s)safe. The owner must be frantic. Vet offices and many pet stores can scan for a chip at no charge. If you have your phone number listed anywhere for this, be very careful of people running scams. DO NOT give anyone a code that they ask for (sent to your phone) when they say they want to verify it’s you before they give you info about a pet that is supposedly theirs. This is how they reset your information (the old reset your password code). ***CALL IN AS FOUND to your local animal shelter. People who lose their pets will call and visit the local shelters. It’s often the first place they will look. Nextdoor (.com ) A great neighborhood page. If you aren’t a member, and can’t join quickly, see if a neighbor will post for you. Sometimes a dog gets the wrong end of a domestic dispute-people leave them off somewhere to hurt the one who loves the pet. Local Facebook lost/found pages. ***Please note that people try to claim so they can sell. Or worse. Most found pets are simply lost and not homeless. Please make vigorous efforts to reunite found pets with their rightful owners. Most states have laws with regard to how long to help, prior to adopting out. Fosters-Often times people will reply with “my dog needs a friend”, etc., so please be aware of those type of offers to foster. If someone will truly be a foster, please be certain that you know their name, phone and contact info-and address of where the pup will be held. Sometimes they disappear. Know that dogs can act skittish or nervous, as well as dirty-that can happen quickly to animals when lost and frightened. Also—-Please post an update on the top of your original post when you have good news to share. Keeps us from sharing inaccurate information. 😊Three dots on top right of your post-gives you edit options. Thank you! 😊 Courtesy of Salvaged Strays

Julie Krystal do you know the cross-streets of where you found him, because Waterford Lakes is not near Silver star

Also, there may very well be a woman who reaches out to you through messenger, telling you she is with a rescue and that she will take the dog. That woman is not only on a do not adopt list, she is banned by the shelter. PLEASE, do not give the dog to her. It will never find its way home

Please call 407-836-3111, press # and file the found dog report, as required by county law. Also, if you are unable to hold him for the required 30 days, while looking for an owner, please take him to the shelter. That is the first place an owner will look for their dog. They will not look for it at a foster home, nor will they look for it at a rescue. Reputable rescues do not take stray dogs. They do not have the time, Manpower or space to hold the dog for 30 days while looking for an actual owner.
