For Lost Dog Do immediately, if not already done. Put your dirty clothes outside in yard. The dogs bed or bedding. Anything with that "familiar family smell". They say dogs can Smell up to a mile away. Check the local shelters. Post flyers. Don't give up. Post on your local neighborhood Nextdoor group. Also if the pup is microchipped make sure to call the chip company make sure chip info is current Also my ask them to flag pup as missing/lost.

Get flyers up soon and attach them to neon poster board like the ones below👇👇or use corrugated plastic signs(like the yard signs, sturdier). Put the flyers in plastic sleeves with the opening to the bottom so rain doesn't get in. Be AWARE of SCAMS. People may contact you claiming to have your dog and asked for money or to send a code. Also the ones that say TEXT this number or has an INSTAGRAM link. ALL are scams. There's new scams out daily targeting owners of lost pets. These are some good sites to post on, more helpful tips, make flyers, etc. www.petfbi.org, www.petcolovelost.org and on www.lostmydoggie.com. The petcolovelost link should report lost to the Jacksonville Humane Society and Animal Care and Protective Services(double check). I'd also email both places to report lost, petsafetynet@jaxhumane.org and Jaxpets@coj.net. Still check both places in person, very important.

Post on the nextdoor app, it's neighborhood specific and on neighbors by ring app. Also post on Lost Pets of Jacksonville, FL. Definitely go in person and check at Animal Care and Protective Services on Forest St and the Jacksonville Humane Society on Beach Blvd in case someone brought him in. Don't just call go look for yourself as dogs do get overlooked. Check often, they only hold for 6 days and then can be adopted. Important to report him lost to both places and check their websites. The shelter links can be found at the top of the Facebook Page I mentioned above under featured. Leave something out with your scent on it, if it's raining leave in a dry area for now. Change out scent items every couple days and hang some on tree branches, ect but lower to the ground. Dogs can catch a familiar scent from a good distance. This has brought many dogs home. I hope he's found soon. **When checking comments make sure it shows "all comments" towards the top. Otherwise you may miss some.
