When he’s spotted, contact Kansas City Dog Trappers to help you since he’s skittish. I hope you find him soon

When I'm trying to catch a lose dog I kneel down and hold my hand like I have food. Then softly ask if they want a cookie. I carry dog treats and a leash in my car too.

Good luck! It has happened to me and I felt awful but a kind lady found him and after contacting Police which I had done, she brought me Timmy and new collar and leash! Of course I did cry and never let him out in storms! I sure hope you can find your sweet babe!!

Here's a few suggestions that might help. As soon as your dog has gone missing- Start looking for it right away. As long as you can. Focus your search during times when your neighborhood or communities are quieter- dusk and dawn. If you have another dog you might take it with you. They might pick up one another’s scent. Call animal control and file a missing report at the shelter with pic. Pass out flyers to all veterinarians. KEEP IN MIND that not everyone is on Facebook. Text your neighbors and friends and asked them to share. Notify microchip company. Post on all local sites with phone contact and location. Hang large neon posters with contact information large enough to be seen from a car. Post on all Lost and Found sites, Shop and Sell sites and Craigslist. Follow up on all leads! Ask caller what direction it was traveling. Focus on areas that have food and water sources. Fast food restaurants seem to be a magnet for them. Some seem to follow or hang around railroad tracks. Post flyers on community bulletin boards and distribute them to neighbor's, postal carriers and utility personal, and bus drivers. Put a piece of clothing outside that has your scent on it (soiled), socks for example. Be sure to check under porches, in garages, sheds, window wells, ditches. etc. Never assume the dog will come to you. While searching the last known area, shake their food dish or a bag such as a chip bag. If your dog has a furry friend, the presence may help coax your dog out of hiding. Do NOT CHASE a frightened dog! When you sight the dog, do not run towards the dog. Get on the ground appear small and less threatening. If you can, sit or lay on the ground and make baby crying sounds. Do not look at the dog. If you have treats (chopped hot dogs, or canned cat food) slowly toss pieces to it. Give the dog time to feel safe. When the dog comes to you, do not grab. Have a slip collar ready., Keep in mind, if the dog has been missing for awhile he may not even feel comfortable with its owner. So go slowly.
