I’m so sorry your dog is missing! I realize this is a lot of information but here are some tips to help get your dog home safe… Lost Dog Advice 📞 Make sure your phone number is at the top of all your posts so you can be reached immediately. ➡️ Add DO NOT CHASE and CALL IMMEDIATELY if sighted. You don't want strangers following (on foot or in a car), calling out/for, whistling at or making eye contact with your scared dog. Call local police departments & animal control offices ASAP to notify them your pup is loose. File a lost report with them. Also alert surrounding town PDs and ACs as well. Dogs can travel quickly! At home and where last seen, put out scent items: i.e. pup's bedding and your dirty laundry like socks, towels, and pillowcases. Scent is so important with a lost dog! Also put out some bowls with warm, smelly food and water to help attract them. Place in front of a ring/doorbell camera, if you have one. For the first few hours, quietly and calmly look for your pup. Talk in a normal voice if walking. Sitting in your car (lights off if at night) close to where lost - with the windows open and heat blasting - may help guide your pup back to it, which is a fantastic source for scent. Always have a leash or slip lead with you to properly secure if found. If you have another dog that your dog is bonded to, bring that dog with you. Dogs are more likely to approach another dog than a human (even their owner) when they are lost. 🐾 If you see your pup, a safe option is to LURE. Have smelly, warm food ready to use, like cheeseburgers, chicken, or cut up hot dog pieces. Be patient ❤️ 🛑 If your dog isn't home safely in the first few hours, it can quickly go into survival/flight mode. After the day quiets down is often when dogs decide to follow their scent and circle back to the location lost from on her/his own. Unfortunately, scared dogs that are being heavily "searched for" (i.e. search parties, screaming their name or running after them) can in turn make very detrimental decisions - like running into traffic or traveling farther away from where originally lost from. 💻 Post on Lost Dogs Illinois through petfbi . org. They will generate a flyer for you as well as give you guidance/support. 📢 FLYER, FLYER, FLYER! You need as many eyes looking as possible. Not everyone is on social media or follows these groups and pages to see your posts. Flyers are the BEST TOOL you've got! Put on neon poster board so they stand out. Put the flyer in a sheet protector and tape it securely on all four sides with clear packing tape to the poster board. This will help protect them from the weather. Start by getting flyers up in all the intersections near where he/she went missing 🤫 For her/his safety, keep any sightings private. It's very important to ask and write down and log the answers to: 1. Time, date and exact location 2. Direction headed 3. Was he/she walking, running or standing/laying If they currently have eyes on your dog, please tell them not to approach so that you can get over there as quickly as possible to try to lure. You don’t want your dog to run off before you get there. Ask if they can take a picture or video to verify that it is your dog. ✴️ Alert residents about your lost dog, and to please check their cameras through: 1. Local neighborhood watch and lost pet pages/groups on Facebook. 2. RING Neighbors App (you don't need a Ring camera to use the app) 3. Nextdoor App 4. Also knock on neighbors’ doors to help spread the word. Your dog may not be too far away. ☎️ If microchipped, contact the chip company to flag the chip as lost ASAP. Confirm that the chip is properly registered to you and your contact info is up to date. Contact area shelters. Hand deliver a flyer to them. Check in person and monitor intakes online daily. ⬇️ Other ideas: 1. Put a sign up in your front yard. If the sign is up, neighbors and people passing by know she/he is still missing. 2. Give a flyer to local mail carriers, Fed Ex, Amazon, school bus drivers. 3. Put a flyer on your car window. 4. Driveway drops: put a mini flyer (print 4 on one letter size piece of neon paper and then cut them up) in a ziploc bag with pea gravel for weight. Drive and toss on to driveways like a newspaper. 5. Pass out the mini flyer to anyone out walking their dogs, pushing strollers, etc. It’s so important to do these things to help get your dog home safe ❤️ ‼️Be careful with scammers‼️They may contact you saying they have your dog and ask for six digit verification codes or money. Every lost dog scenario is different, but this is a general guide that works for many of them ❤️
