Hang flyers up immediately in upside down gallon size baggies to protect from the weather, notify local mail carriers, UPS and Fed Ex drivers, and garbage men (they cover a lot of ground), ask neighbors to check their cameras/ring for possible sightings, check shelters daily bc the stray hold is usually only a few days, put his bedding and some of your dirty clothes outside for him to track the scent. Post on Nextdoor app, post on PetFBI.org, and all neighborhood apps, ask businesses to check their cameras. If he is chipped, notify chip company that he is lost. Praying you find him soon. I cannot express enough how important flyers are. Not everyone is on social media.

Tips to find yourTIPS TO FIND YOUR LOST DOG: 🐾 🐾 ■Post to: Indy Lost Pet Alert, Nextdoor, Petfbi, Lost My Doggie & Petalertusa. *** Remember to check these sites daily for "found" pet posts!! ■Scent is critical in finding your dog - remember to freshen up bedding every couple of days. ■One sign can attract 200 👀 a day. Signs/flyers are crucial for finding your dog!! ■Try 24petconnect and type in your zip code. Click "Lost dogs". This list all dogs in the local shelter. 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
