Create a scent station ASAP! My dog took off after a rollover accident in an unfamiliar area and I got him back 3 days later. If I’d known about a scent station it would not have taken so long. *If you see your dog -don’t yell at them. Just talk quietly to them. Lost dog: Use the scent tracking ability. Especially if the dog is in unfamiliar territory, or sight/hearing/mentally impaired, put an unlaundered piece of clothing from its favorite person on the ground where the dog was lost. They will sniff their way to that piece of clothing. Try hanging up outside, a couple items of owners (unwashed, dirty) clothing for the scent to lead him/her back home..Hang them up (high) so the wind can pass through them and carry the scent...Dogs rely on picking up their owners scent to find their way back home. Think of a wagon wheel - put pieces of a dirty article of clothing on each spoke leading back to the hub (home)
