📌 HIT BY A CAR AND INJURED Arizona Humane - foster home - up for adoption: If your dog is hit by a car and injured- if the police come, they take it to the nearest emergency vet (24-hour usually not the regular ones). The pet is considered a stray and treated, then 2-5 days later, Arizona Humane Society picks up the dog, and it’s processed at the Papago location. THEN it goes into a foster home for recovery, which can be 2 weeks to 12 weeks! THEN it goes back to Papago to be processed and goes up for adoption. Many owners lose their pets in this transition. Flyers for awareness do not work in this situation unless somebody happened to be there when your pet was hit or saw it brought into the vet. 👎 Flyers without reward 👎 Posting without reward 👎 Reward ✅ Posting your pic quickly on next door and neighbors by ring first so you can find your pet before ✅ Calling blue pearl, a v e c c and veg the 24-hour emergency vets to see if any pets matching your description have been brought in, 📌 HIT BY A CAR AND ED If your pet is hit and ed, people often call animal control to pick up. They do not pick up dead animals. They send them to the non-emergency police #. Dispatch sends the info to the sanitation dept, and they contact the contractor to pick up the dead animal. They are supposed to check for a chip. I personally do not believe they scan the animals. (Some are not intact, and it would be a lot more work to have to call all those people back.) When they come and pick up the dead animal, they put it in a bag and at the end of the day take all the bodies to the Glendale Az Landfill to dump. This company has the contract for 9 of the major cities in Arizona. So your pet could be missing 45 miles away and still end up in the Glendale Landfill at the end of the day. Flyers for awareness do not work on this group unless someone was there when your pet was hit or saw it brought into the vet. 👎 Flyers without reward 👎 Posting without reward 👎 Reward ✅ Checking neighbors by ring as well as the next door app to see if anyone has posted a deceased pet ✅ Call non-emergency police department number and ask specifically for the dispatch department. Ask them if any calls have come in near your intersection on the date matching your description of your dog. ✅ Posting your pic quickly on next door and neighbors by ring first so you can find your pet before ✅ Calling blue pearl, a v e c c and veg the 24-hour emergency vets to see if any pets matching your description have been brought in,

📌 SKITTISH DOGS RUN THE STREETS Skittish dogs…especially small breeds, German shepherds and huskies. They run and run and run. Very hard to catch. Many eventually are hit by a car. Some manage to hide and stay on the run. This is why it’s so important to have a collar with your number on the back of the neck so even if someone can’t catch your dog, they can still see the # and call you. These dogs are also why it’s super important to post on Neighbors by Ring and stay in the comment section! Not come back hours later. If someone posts they see your dog, you have to get over there ASAP, not reply back 5 hours later. It’s too late by then. Some owners seem to believe they can go after work, after their baby wakes up, after their husband gets home. For many of these individuals their dog is never seen again. Dogs wait for no one. Flyers without a reward oftentimes do not work on these dogs either. These dogs will likely only come to their owner, and the owner needs people in the community commenting on sightings in real time, not hours or days later to catch up with their pet. 👎 Flyers without reward are not going to Garner the same attention that a reward will. 👎 Posting without reward- same 👎 Reward inspires more people to go the extra mile, take the time to contact the owner ASAP which is vital to catching up with your skittish pet.

Have you ever looked through mcac Urgent and adoptable on Facebook? What about Arizona Humane Society FOUND PETS group? I would look through both all the way back to when your pet went missing.
