Robert Walden Get your scent out in front of the house - use dirty worn laundry to do this - hang it out high so the smell can travel and guide the dog back home. Keep an access point open in case the dog returns. Please post signs with the dog’s picture and your contact information. Post signs all over so if someone spots your dog and there is no ID on him/her the person can contact you. Ask your neighbors to check their outdoor cameras, yards, bushes and garages. Call Newport Animal Shelter to report your dog as missing in case someone calls in with a matching description and ask if animal services has picked up your dog already. Go to the shelter in person. Also post your dog on Pawboost.com & Ring. Prayers that your dog is found soon and safely.🙏🏻❤️🐾

Robert Walden I believe you saw the picture and information I sent to you and Sandy … I haven’t heard anything back from her and had to ask, then she said not him, and I asked about verifying with the shelter , not to compare by picture only , and heard nothing back . As many here know me , in years of experience shelter pictures are very deceitful, when I found a so similar dog line yours, same name , same age and same weight, even the fur color is similar… I would’ve been happy to help and check it. I spent quite a bit of time explaining to Sandy how many dogs I’ve reunited found far away from home and how many times shelters miss the microchip reading . I was so excited that I couldn’t even sleep that night … I wish you guys would have done it, so at least to sleep well knowing that you were there and was not him for sure . That dog now is adopted and if it was him we will never know !
