WHAT TO DO WHEN YOUR DOG GOES MISSING • Quickly and carefully SEARCH last known location (keep slip lead and stinky treats with you at all times) check your home, shed, garage, bat and the entering area then further by foot and then by car...if you see the lost dog, be sure to get down low to ground, talk gently, limit eye contact and offer treats, keeping your slip lead close... *TELL EVERYONE you see the dog is Missing and give any important instructions about your dog's demeanor...tell them DO NOT CHASE...tell all your friends, neighbors (have them monitor home and business cameras), the mailman, local stores...the more eyes searching the better! *SIGHTINGS Are Very Very Important be sure you give phone #!!! • POST on all Lost & Found Pet pages on Facebook...Nextdoor app, Neighbors app, Pawboost app and any other Neighborhood pages in your area...use very detailed information state Missing/Lost, Breed, Color, Size, When and Where dog went missing from...name the Closest intersecting streets and city so we can hop in cars and use GPS to come and help or to connect you to a found dog in your area, state if Collar and if Microchipped... • REPORT TO ANIMAL CONTROL...file a Lost Report...check all local Shelters IN PERSON daily or at least every 2-3 days... • UPDATE MICROCHIP with current contact information... • Set a SCENT STATION... place stinky dirty laundry, smelly dog bedding and a bowl of smelly human or can dog food...place in a safe and visible location at your house or at the location the dog went missing from to help dog find home or homebase on camera, if possible...(Strong Scents...Fried Chicken with no bones, Burgers, Sausage, Rotisserie Chicken, Bacon, Bacon Grease, Gravy and Liquid Smoke) • If you or those who are helping you SEE your dog be sure they get low to the ground, stay calm with limited eye contact and slowly get the dog to approach them by using treats...a dog on the run may not even recognize his own owner if he is in Fight or Flight mode...if dog is fearful, it may take some time for him to realize that you are safe and may require the use a Humane Trap and Cameras to safely capture your dog...
