Contact the police and file a lost dog report. Some police departments will also send officers to search for the dog. Put up fliers on all poles, post offices, vet offices, stores, gyms, anywhere you can think of and in mailboxes in the area. Go door to door to let people know the dog is missing. Go in person to local shelters (Providence Animal Center, Brandywine SPCA, etc) and do not rely on phone calls because they are busy and might not check. Put out some of your worn unwashed clothing and a bed or blanket he sleeps on so he can track the scent. Check under all neighborhood decks, porches, sheds and ask people to check inside their sheds and garages. Also check under and around all landscaping (shrubs, bushes, flower beds, etc.) in the neighborhood. Let the area mailman know to keep an eye out for him. Go out at night with the flashlight calling his name and shaking food or treats. If he is microchipped contact the company immediately to be sure your contact information is up to date. They may also help with creating fliers, etc. Go in person to local vets to inquire if someone may have brought her in.
