Post on Nextdoor. If the dog was found in your neighborhood, walked to the kids bus stops in the morning. They’re usually many people at them. Someone may recognize the dog. Please get proof of ownership. Read More
🐾If you haven't already
(these are some suggestions, as you may have already done some of these and some suggestions may not pertain to your situation).
Can you take to see if the dog has a chip.
Any vet, emergency vet, or even some petco or petsmart (if there is a pet hospital there) and fire department might be able to scan (some have scanners). Have them to do a full body scan, as sometimes the chip may have moved.
Please walk the neighborhood and see if he belongs to any of your neighbors. Remember not everyone is on social media.
Let the postman also know, as he normally knows his folks on his route and may recognize the pup.
Please also contact the shelters near you, that is one of the first places a family will go.
WHAT TO DO
The first place owners go, desperate to find their missing pets, is to the shelters to see if they have been picked up or turned in. Call the local shelters asap to let them know where the pet is and provide your contact information. The shelters will ask you if you want to hold the pet until the owners are found or if you want them to pick it up. You can safely notify the shelter and still hold on to the pet until owners come looking for it, if you want to.
Owners may still be out of town! Not uncommon for neighbors & some pet sitters to loose dogs
If you live at an Apt complex ask the office mgr to send an email to all tenants, it could be someone that lives there
Please ask for proof of ownership.
THANKS so much for helping!!🐾Read More
A good place to check to see if anyone is looking for the pup, is Pawboost. Also, if your community has a Facebook page post there.
Please be careful who you release him/her too. There are bad people who pose as good people and use dogs as bait in dog fights. Thank you for keeping him safe.Read More
Just suggestions to possibly help find the owners:
Please check for a chip. Any vet or petco should be able to do this for free. Have them scan the whole body as chips can move.
Check/post on next door app.
Check post on pawboost, lost & found pets of Cypress. I know you posted on the fb page, just checking if you looked through them to see if anyone has posted already looking for them.
You might also try walking them in the area you found them to see if they lead you to their home.
If possible can you put up posters and/or knock on doors near where they were found for people not on social media.
You can also check area vets to see if they know the dog, anyone has come looking for it, or if you can put up a flyer there.
Make sure anyone claiming to be the owner has proof (pictures/vet bills/etc)
Thank you so much for keeJust suggestions to possibly help find the owners:Read More
