Don't forget to go check in person too. ■ TIPS: https://peacefulsoulsanimalrescue.com/what-to-do-if-youve-lost-your-dog/ ONCE DOG IS FOUND: 🐾 🐾 ●●** Please make sure to get your dog CHIPPED/ REGISTERED/WITH TAGS. This helps ensure your dog gets home if it gets lost again. ●●Please consider a GPS collar for live tracking updates. This is especially important for runners, like Huskies/ German Shephard's for example. ●●**Also please put a LOCK 🔐 🔒 on your fence gate if you have one. This helps keep dogs in & dog thieves out!!** So many dogs get lost this way! Hope you find your fur baby soon. 🐾 🐕 🐕 🐾 🐾 dogHelp find your dogs Do: Wait patiently at the scene for as long as possible. Stay put so your dog can come back following your scent. “Let the dog come back to you.” When you must go home, take a dirty sock, t-shirt, or underwear that has been close to your skin and place them outside of your home. This is another scent lure. Set up a “meat trap” using odorous meats. This is done based on investigative work. For example, after a neighbor saw your dog running up a hill, the meat and water would be placed at the foot of the hill. Broadcast that your dog is missing using social media, posters, and word of mouth. Ask people to report sightings rather than attempt to retrieve your dog. She will be frightened and run away again. Use sighting reports to use scent based lures like clothing or food. Leave doors open so that your dog has a way to get inside when they return home. Do Not: Leave the scene and start searching for your dog. You are spreading your scent and making it more difficult for your dog to come back to you. Close up your house so your dog has no way of coming inside when they return. Chase your dog or yell their name. This will only drive them further

IMMEDIATELY** set out owners dirty bedding / blankets and dog bed outside your door with their food & water bowls. The scent can help redirect them back towards home making it easier to find them💕🐾 Please be sure to post on the IndyLostPetAlert.com, pawboost.com, NextDoor app & Neighbors RING app , (city/township/county group chat pages) Please be sure to check with all shelters in your county. Post flyers in your area for people who do not have social media

Please post on Indylostpetalert, Pawboost, Ring Neighbors app, Facebook & Nextdoor App, & put up signs in your area. Please know there are scammers that will say they have your pet & ask for a code to verify, a link, ask for money or say they have drones (all scams & BS)!! Please don’t click the link, they don’t have your pet! Sadly so many scammers! Check with the shelters & your neighbors and look at security cameras. Put a pet bed or blanket on your porch too. Don’t give up! 🤞🏻 You can try putting some liquid smoke out in a bowl and some of your dirty laundry too, can help lead them home! Try Peaceful Souls too - https://peacefulsoulsanimalrescue.com
