The dog has lost: what to do?

Inactivity in this case is not the best way out. Some owners decide to wait until the dogwill return itself, but usually it's only a waste of time. A domestic dog on the street is facing a lot of dangers, especially if it's a decorative dog that is not used to walking for long and is afraid of everything.

In the first hour after the loss, go around the area in which the dog was lost. Walk on foot and loudly call her (or whistle- depending on what the dog used to respond to). Ride around the area by car and look out the dog from the window in this case - not the best option. You can bring to the search friends by dividing the area into plots.

Make as many ads as possible with a photo of the dog, your contact informationand a promise of reward. It is advisable to write a detailed text indicating the breed, age, sex, nickname, special signs, circumstances under which the dog was lost.

Advertisements need to be posted in the area where the dog was lost, best of all - in crowded places: at stops, parking lots, near shops, pharmacies, etc. In addition, in the process of searching you can distribute ads to counter dogs. From people who have a dog, it is more likely to wait for sympathy and help: they understand the severity of your loss.

You can also distribute ads to the people you meet police patrols: perhaps they will see your dog patrolling the area. Children can become good helpers, so it is worth distribute some ads in the nearest schools. Sometimes local janitors and even grandmothers at the entrances can help: they spend a lot of time in the yard and could see your dog.

Another need bring a picture of the dog with your contact details to nearby veterinary clinics, as well as shelters for stray dogs and warn staff. Perhaps your dog will be found and brought to a shelter or a vet clinic, the staff will already know who is its master and will inform you.

In general, if you have lost a dog, It is worth reporting about the disappearance wherever possible: advertise in the newspaper, on local television, in social networks, on veterinary forums. Some of the ads will work, that's just what - you never know beforehand.

You can apply for help to the local animal welfare society, to the cynological organizations. If a thoroughbred dog is lost, you first need to call the breeder and the organization where the animal was registered.

Having given ads, do not sit idly by. For several days after the loss, come to the place where the dog was lost. There is a chance that she will come here for a few days and you will meet her. Still visit the bird markets: there can sell the found dogs.

AND do not lose hope - If you apply to the search efforts, it is likely that your pet will return to you unharmed.
