Better check those slaughterhouses around you if he was picked up and taken there they don’t give them any time before they murder them

Lost dogs these are only suggestions. All may not apply. 1 hang out the pajamas you slept in last night. They know your smell and will search for them. 2 report them as lost to the shelter and on all available websites. 3 Check with groomers, vets, shelters, your postman, neighbors and delivery people. 4 put a large sign in your yard with a photo snd your contact info. Put out flyers asap (even handwritten) on front doors, near mailboxes, and on porches. 5 if you feel safe, knock on doors, ask about you pet and when you say their name say it loud and happy, they could be there. You never know. When they hear your voice they will whine, bark or scratch to let you know they hear you. 6 walk the area they were last in,to make sure they aren’t caught in brush, behind a closed door, or hung on something they tried to go under around or over. The also follow power lines that are clear cut. 7 Contact search and rescue groups in your area they can be a lot of help. Anakin’s Trails Trapping 8 post on all sights in your area to let people know your pup is lost. 9 and lastly. Don’t give up. Unless picked up they don’t usually go far. They will hide and seek shelter,refuge,and comfort on porches, decks, garages, carports, culverts, abandoned buildings, and buildings with opened doors. Prayers you find you pup Please update if any changes.
