Put smelly food like chicken and hot dogs, his kennel, blankets and your worn clothing outside your house and at sighting locations for him. Make a scent trail of liquid smoke from the food outward in each direction.
Call the police and animal control to report him missing.
Ask neighbors to check surveillance camera footage to see if he has been seen on them.
If he has a doggy friend/sibling that he is bonded with, take that dog out to search as well. Sometimes dogs will come to other dogs.
Check the area well, including window wells, under decks, porches, bushes and places where he can get in but may not be able to get out.
It’s really important to get big bright neon lost dog signs up in the area he is lost so people know who to call right away if they see him:
