My nephew’s dog got out of the yard this morning. He is a medium sized dog, very friendly. He currently has a collar on with tags. Please help bring my nephew’s pup home!

Make sure you post on:for the love of louie, nextdoor, ring doorbell, lost and found pets, pawboost, petcolove, petfbi, any state, city, and county sites. Let the police, vets, and animal shelters know your dog is missing. If your dog is chipped, let the chip company know also. Put some hot smelly food out on your porch like: hotdogs, smoky links, rotisserie chicken, or canned chicken. I put it on a tortilla if you have one. Get liquid smoke(comes where the Bar-B-Q sauce is in the store), add to a squirt bottle with water, and spray in the trees near your house. If you don't have liquid smoke,it's okay, you can make juice with chicken broth+Bar-B-Q sauce. Boil it on the stove. Add chili powder or another stinky e. Make sure it's boiling hot and drizzle it on the lawn up to the porch. Also, put something with your scent on it (pillowcase or shirt work great) on the porch too. If you don't have a camera on your porch, take a bag of flour. Make a ring around the food a couple inches out. Mound it all the way around like ant hills. That way You can tell what's eating the food, whether it's a dog or a raccoon or cat, etc. If you have another dog, take it out for a walk and let it lead you.It may be able to pick the missing dog's scent up. Dogs normally come home within 24-48 hours. If yours does not, YOUR Next Step needs to be getting flyers up! FLYER FLYER FLYER! Almost every dog I have recovered has been because of flyers, not social media! Flood the area with them (homes, businesses). Give them to your mail carrier, UPS driver, and Amazon driver. Ask stores and gas stations in your area if you can hang a flyer. Tape them on port-a-pottys at construction sites. They're critical in getting a lost pet back!! There is a free app called postermywall where you can make free colorful flyers. •DO NOT CALL YOUR DOG WHEN LOOKING FOR THEM. IT WILL MAKE THEM RUN! •Check cemeteries, schools, golf courses, parks, and cul-de-sacs. Dogs like these because they are quiet. •Make sure that you don't post sightings on social media. You don't want well-meaning people running out to help as he/she will be scared and may run, which could put them in danger. • Posting a reward can also bring out people who only want the money and if they chase the dog, it could also end up running out of fear and into danger. •Do not go to where he/she was seen and call out for him/her as that could scare them and push them out of the area or into danger! You want him/her to settle down and stay in one area so he/she can be trapped, if necessary. Instead take some stinky food and place in a safe place, if you have a camera put it in front the food - to see if he/she comes to eat it. ** If you (THE OWNER) see your dog, do not call out to them or make eye contact- Sit on the ground. Always have some stinky food with you(Hot dogs, rotisserie chicken, or a small bag of Cheetos), to help lure them to you. Do not say anything or make quick moves. Your dog needs to see you, hear you, and smell you - before he/she can process who you are and come to you!!! Once they approach, quietly say a phrase they would be familiar with. If they walk away, stay put for a few minutes. They may be trying to get your scent. If they leave DO NOT CHASE them. If someone calls and says they have your dog, ask them to take a picture. If they say they saw your dog, ask them a trick question like, " oh, does he still have his orange collar on?" If you feel it's legit, ask " what were they doing- running, walking, etc. And which direction did they go in.

THINGS TO DO WHEN YOUR DOG GOES MISSING •Get hot, smelly food/water out ASAP. Do you have a Ring doorbell or security camera you can position in front of the food, so you can see if he/she comes to eat it? •Put out some of your dirty laundry, such as a pillowcase or sweaty clothes. •Post on Nextdoor, neighborhood/subdivision pages, ring app, and ask neighbors to check security camera footage for sightings and to call you. * Post on pawboost online and For the Love of Louie *Michigan Lost Pet Lookers* •Check your entire property for places he/she could be hiding. Go door to door and ask neighbors to do the same. •Let police and animal Control/Shelter know he/she's missing. Go to the shelter in person every day or every other day at a minimum. •Get neon posterboard up on all intersections within two miles. Write with black marker: LOST DOG DO NOT CHASE BREED/COLOR PHONE NUMBER •Get neon colored flyers with same info above and include photo and flood the area with them (homes, businesses). They're critical in getting a lost pet back!! •Do not go to where seen and call out for him/her as that could scare him/her and push him/her out of the area or into danger! You want him/her to settle down and stay in one area so he/she can be trapped, if necessary. Instead take some stinky food and place in a safe place, if you have a camera to put in front the food - to see if he/she comes to eat it. ** If you (THE OWNER) see your dog, do not call out to them dog or make eye contact- Sit on the ground or drop to the ground and play dead. Always have some stinky food with you, to help lure them to you. Do not say anything or make quick moves. Your dog needs to see you, hear you, and smell you - before he/she can process who you are and come to you!!! Once they approach, quietly say a phrase they would be familiar with.
