File a lost report was front street shelter if animal control picks up in the city of Sacramento they will take there. You should be checking the website several times a day they update and the public constant bringing a minute at 12 to 5... Do not rely on the websites deceased will not be on there even if it has a microchip that you responsibility to take that microchip ID get in there and show them the ID in pictures every couple days.DO as long as it takes..

HOW TO APPROACH A SCARED DOG 1. Body Language: Lower your body, turn sideways, and avoid direct eye contact, which can be seen as a threat. Avoid leaning over or reaching for them. 2. Move Slowly: Proceed at an extremely slow pace—if you think you are moving too slowly, you are likely moving at the right speed. 3. Use Treats: Use high-value food (like chicken or cheese) to lure the dog. Toss treats away from you initially so they don't feel forced to get too close to you immediately. 4. Let Them Approach: Allow the dog to come to you to sniff. Do not try to pet them immediately. 5. Be Patient: Rescue can take time; do not force interaction.

SURVIVAL MODE: IF SIGHTED: DO NOT CHASE OR CALL LOUDLY A frightened dog in survival mode may bolt if chased or called frantically. Instead, sit or lie down, avoid direct eye contact, and speak in a low, gentle voice. SECURE THE ESCAPE SITE Keep doors, gates, or garage doors slightly open (if safe) to allow the dog to return on their own, especially at night. USE SCENT STATIONS Place items with familiar, strong scents near the escape point: your unwashed clothes, the dog's bed, or bedding. SEARCH AT NIGHT/DAWN Frightened dogs often hide during the day and move in the "wee small hours". Use a bright flashlight to spot eye reflections. CHECK HIDING SPOTS Frightened dogs stay close to the last known location, hiding in quiet, dark spots like sheds, under decks, in thick bushes, or under parked cars.

‼️PLEASE READ ENTIRELY‼️ Contact all local veterinary clinics in and surrounding the area your dog was lost. Was your dog lost from home? - If yes, have you placed a “LOST DOG” sign on your front fence? - If yes, leave your dog’s bed in the front yard along with an item of your clothing. (The reason for this is to help your dog scent their way back home, if able). Was your dog lost elsewhere? If yes, please return to the area your dog was last sighted and leave an item of the dog’s and the pwner’s on the ground. (The reason for this is to help your dog scent their way back to this area, if able.) Start searching from this area and return often to check the area where the items were left. Have you door knocked all the neighbours surrounding the area your dog was lost? (Dogs have been found hiding in backyards, under houses and in bushland at the back of.neighbours properties.) Have you searched under bridges and in drains? Dogs have been found trapped under bridges and have fallen in drains unable to get back out. (A little dog last week fell down a drain and after the owner read my recommendations she checked the drains surrounding her home and found her dog trapped in the drain. The owner was extremely grateful for this advice.) ‼️ IMPORTANT‼️ Was your dog lost near bushland/state forests/reserves/parks/rivers/creeks? If yes, please search these areas for your darling dog. Take some food (try en). Dogs are often lost, hiding or trapped in parkland/bushland surrounding the area they were lost. They can get caught in heavy vegetation, collars and harnesses can get caught on branches or fences, leads can get caught in vegetation on the ground or they can fall down embankments and are unable to climb back out. Ten dogs recently lost: - dog found trapped in a lantana filled gully unable to move. - dog trapped in a dry river bed. - dog trapped in a riverbed with water. - dog had fallen down a steep embankment unable to climb out. - dog trapped in thick bushland. - dog hiding in a reserve. - two dogs found entangled in vines. - two dogs trapped in mangroves. When dogs are lost, hiding or trapped n bushland searching is the only way dogs are found otherwise they would not have survived. The majority of searches took between 27 - 72 hours to find their dogs however some searches took up to 10 days to find their dog in the bushland. If sighted DO NOT CALL OUT OR CHASE your dog, instead SIT ON THE GROUND or CROUCH DOWN, hold out food/treats (if available), MAKE NO SUDDEN MOVEMENTS, wait for your dog to approach you then try to secure your dog. Your dog could currently be in “flight mode” which means they will not initially recognize you if sighted and it will require patience to rescue.
