Lost and Found

A lost dog. It is every owner’s worst nightmare. Thankfully, as an adult I have only had this happen once and got lucky. Ari slipped under my dad’s fence while I was out town and I discovered her missing when I went to pick up the pack. In sheer panic I searched the neighborhood on foot, asking person after person if they had seen her. Those that had told me it had been hours before. During my search I ran into a group of kids riding their bikes and asked if she had crossed their path. She hadn’t, but sure enough an hour or two later one of them called me while I was still out searching. She came back in a trailer built for a toddler towed behind one of the bikes. I swear that dog was beaming. Tongue hanging out, panting from her grand adventure, she had no idea she’d almost killed me.

I remember the panic, and the relief of having her in my arms again. This was at least 10 years ago, and unfortunately, even with our advanced technologies too many dogs never make it home. Two recent losses come to mind, a member of our training club, and a family member’s dog. One has been gone over a year and the other about a month. Neither may ever come home, despite their owners continued outreach on social media.

Which is why I think it’s important you do everything you can to make sure your dog is found before they are lost.

​Today most dogs are chipped, and it’s easy to feel like that is a protection, a shield. If your dog gets out, they will get scanned and come home. The problem is not every dog makes it to a scanner. It’s uncommon, but chips can stop working. Or you moved and didn’t update your information. 


Hands down, the most important thing you can do to protect your dog is old fashioned. Get them a proper fitting collar and tags.

Right or wrong tags send out a signal when a dog is wandering the streets. I am loved. I have somewhere I am supposed to be. Someone out there is looking for me. An untagged dog, even a pampered one, can look like it has been on the street for months once it becomes ragged and dirty. If someone manages to ‘rescue’ them they tell themselves that this nice, adorable, dog wasn’t cared for. It’s easy to give it a home if no one ‘wanted’ it.

A tag with your number on it also cuts out any middleman or delays. If it’s the weekend, no one has to wait for a vet or shelter to open to look for a chip. I’ve found many dogs lose over the years and that is by far my preferred way to get them home again. So check your tags, make sure they are up to date and haven’t faded. See they are secure and that their collar is in good repair and still fits. Ella, being the monster, has lost two sets somewhere in our back yard. I don’t know how she manages it. So I replace them, again.

If you do find a lost dog, do not keep it. Take it to your local shelter, have it scanned. If you worry about it being euthanized adopt it after the hold stay. Dogs taken to the shelter are more likely to get reunited with their owners and it most places it is illegal to keep them.

Practice dog safety, always have them on a leash in an unfenced or unsecure area. Even the most well trained dog can get spooked or chase after a cat or wildlife. Master come and stay in case they slip their leash. Walk your yard often and check for escape routes, especially if your dog has access to the outdoors when you are not at home.

If your dog gets lost remember that they can travel far and fast, even if they are never picked up in a car. Contact your shelter and those in the surrounding areas. Visit them in person if you can and leave a flier. Same with vet clinics. If someone chooses to keep your dog the likelihood of a vet scanning a new patient just because is slim to none - unless they have seen your flier. Go door to door in your neighborhood, particularly in those first 24-48 hours. Utilize social media, there are many facebook pages for lost pets.


Hopefully you never have to live this nightmare. If you do, I hope these tips help you come out of it successful and back with your pup.

Hi Lisa. Hugs Luna. This is a post about the use of shock collars. I KNOW😱💥. But wait a minute n give me a chance. I was against them. So much. Well enter stage right..Dozer. Pure Bloodhound male puppy. As w/all our dogs past n now they are family. No.1 rule here. Dozer is at 130lbs at 16 months. He showed up w/hubby and a used horse trailer that we needed. I knew the breed. That's all. We learned fast cause you have to. Altho a big baby to the core Dozer had all the traits of what the breeder said would show. Number one: their life essence is tracking w that superior sense of smell. #2: It is not what they can give you but what you give them. This is a strong trait and has to be dealt w right away w/ firmness and fairness. They must learn who has the final say. Us. #3. They do not like to be alone so either get 2 or have another larger dog already but not a senior. I digress here, Dozer likes to play, his tail can knock a small dog silly. Most breeds should have a pal. From here I will tell you that even at his age he is a calm guy. Happy to see you then settles. Bursts of activity n he's out like a light. Now the shock collar: when this breed gets on a scent there is NO reason or sense of anything else..but here is where the collar of love(I call it now) comes in. Dozer was shocked only twice in his life w/us and yes he yelped, no it was not on high but set at half. Everyday the collar goes on, comes off at night. It is now only set at "tone". Why? He's smart. He listens now where before only inches from a highway he was almost killed and we love him. He also works. During deer hunting he has already been called to track a blood trail by neighbors, friends, the Amish and strangers who needed a hand. Not just deer but other lost and loved dogs have been found by him. You see, it's what you do because you love your friend and is not tough love for them but for us the first time we had to hit that shock button and then the second time. That was all it took. Now if he is out of sight a tone brings him in. Without it his instincts will take him away, far away, but we never forget the spirit of Dozers instincts and at every turn we encourage him and let him with the help of the collar because at the end of a day w/out it, I know that given a choice he would try to get back to us and there are no guarantees on his own. He loves his family, his bed, his security. So think twice about those collars. Even for the small breeds because that tough love we go thru for them pays dividends you can't but a price on. Not ever.
God Bless the silent ones that love us with their eyes.
