How are people supposed to reach you if they see your dog running in the road? Put your phone number on your ads! I'm sorry but I do this all day and don't even own a dog and it gets really freaking aggravating that people don't post a phone number. It's hard enough to look through hundreds of lost dogs every week without having no phone number to contact the owner.

Follow this page on Facebook so if your dog comes up on The Hit List you can save it. Pitbulls are euthanized everyday nobody wants to adopt them. You have 3 days to find your dog if it's at the shelter before they can it. You have to stay on top of it.
These dogs are put down all the time at the pound because the owners don't show up. The rescue community volunteers work very hard to find the owners but the majority of them just try to find new homes for dogs because it's too hard to find owners when they're not looking all over for their dog themself. But anyways here's some information to help you find your dog.
Lost pet: 🎯 I got 4 pets back to their owners in October same day because they were posted on NEIGHBOR app!
Also post on Fb groups for your city. Post your missing pet every other day on neighbor AND next door. Post find/lost pet on: Petcolove . org ( it shares to next door. Don't forget to pull up the post there and keep an eye on the comments.) 🔥
Dogs are usually within a mile of your home 🔥Cats are usually within 8 to 10 houses of your home. Focus on heavy awareness in the IMMEDIATE vicinity! Search other posts as well.
After a week, offer a reward to inspire those that aren't paying attention. Put option to call or text on your ad. App uses different #.
Doesn't help when people comment they've seen your pet but u don’t see it for 2 hours by then pet is gone. Make it easy to reach you!
Finders often hold a pet about a week then call the pound. After 3 days your pet could be euthanized!!! Extremely important to stay on top of checking their intake, NOT the adoptables🔥🔥
🔥AFTER A FEW DAYS: Still lost? Search petfinder . com as if you are looking to adopt, pet might be with a rescue up for adoption! Use least amount of filter options possible, could be listed incorrectly!!
Home again and AKC pet reunite when you report a dog lost sends out notifications to all vets/shelters/subscribers within a 10 mile radius.
Mcacc and AHS also get notifications regardless of the zip code the dog was reported in. Dogs are being put down based on the “finder” saying behavior is. Owners have 3 days to find their dog. Check both locations.
Should be running to the shelters, file a lost report, to be reunited ASAP to save your dog's life. Over 100 dogs recently euthanized were never even listed for adoption. Animal Care and Control is not a rescue/Doggie Daycare.
Contact your chip company immediately as lost. Phone number not current on tag? Call your old phone number, offer reward if they forward calls regarding your pet.
Missing for a while? Some of the resYour pet could be out sniffing around, enjoying the weather. Someone could have taken it in for safety,
Cats could have gotten into someone's backyard and their dog gets a hold of it, or they trap and take it to the pound, a rescue or the Humane Society. Everybody doesn't love cats, very dangerous for them to be outside between other animals and those that don't like cats.
