WHAT TO DO NOW?
Make sure you have someone in that area keep an eye out for him/her and check his/her house/yard.
Make sure you are checking all of the shelters.
Listen for dogs barking in your neighborhood and follow those barks.
GO DOOR TO DOOR WITH FLYERS with your pets picture and your contact info, let them know EVERYONE is searching for this pet, let them know it’s all over the social media & community’s are looking out and aware this animal is missing, let them know animal Control has been notified as well, Sometimes homes with small children might have these animals as the parents might see the kids excitement of having the pet and think (Against the law Felony) they can keep it. Do NOT share too many details about a found pet, let the owner TELL you what their pet looks like and any markings or traits to look for!
🐾File Lost/Found reports ASAP with shelters in the area the pet was Lost/found
🐾Review Lost/Found reports filed with shelters, look at Injured, quarantined & Deceased reports as well.
🐾Have pet scanned for a microchip, Animal shelters/Petsmart/vets/Animal Hospitals scan for free.
If the chip is not registered the chip company can tell you which vet/shelter implanted the chip and that facility should have owner's info on file and will call for you.
--Make Flyers in Spanish and English so “Everyone” is informed.
-- Hang Lost or Found/Flyers in the area the pet was Lost/Found, Put them a stop lights if allowed, stop signs, your yard, a community mail box or in places where people have idle time to read them! Like community centers/laundry mats/car washes/corner liquor stores etc. REMEMBER,,,,,,Not everyone is on social media) So,,,
