🐾FOUND DOG PROTOCOL- Follow the Law KNOCK ON NEIGHBOR’S DOORS IMMEDIATELY. 🚨MUST get proof of Ownership! Please report to local police and animal control as owner has probably made a lost pet report. This is a law. Finders must report a found pet. 🐾Just remember Found Animals can’t be re-homed by you. You have to make an effort by law to find the owner and if not turn over to Animal Control who will take to the shelter your town contracts with. ⬇️ Please knock on your neighbors door up to two miles, although not all dogs run far when they get out. Hand them Found Dog flyers. Get proof of ownership before you hand the dog over! Proof of ownership is: Multiple pictures from their phone of them with the dog or the dog, dog’s name, Vet receipts. Please also check the Facebook lost pet pages local to your town. You can also take to a Vet for free service of scanning for a microchip. Please do everything you can to find the owner because once animals go into the “system” when animal control is called there is only a 7 day hold period before they can legally adopt out. Going into a shelter places a tremendous amount of stress on an animal and because of the stress they are prone to biting as it’s their only defense mechanism. Thank you for helping! Animals choose their rescuers. We can’t let them down.

How do you lose an old dog like this or have him roam around unattended.

Put a poster sized sign outside of your home and write I have you dog with your number. Make them give a description of dog. Dogs usually recognize owners. Yes he looks pretty old thank goodness you have him Call and leave message with.police station in your area
