• We maintain a bulletin board where notices of lost and found dogs are placed and checked daily by our staff.
• Notices in the daily newspaper are monitored and a special flyer with detailed information is given to each visitor looking for their missing companion.
• A daily log is kept of each incoming dog. This includes a description of the dog and the location they were found.
• To assist with the very large number of calls, a computerized list is updated daily with details on every dog housed in our kennel.

Some things that you can do...

• Try to remain calm
• Check in with us at (216) 525-PUPS. Be prepared to provide a license number, name and description.
• Create flyers and post them in the area your pet was lost and near your home. Bold, readable type is best. Be sure to include:
  • the pet's name
  • a description (size, color, sex, markings, etc) and/or picture
  • how to contact you
  • consider offering a reward
• Check with neighbors
• Check with the police and/or the APL
• Check the "Found" ads and place a "Lost" ad in The Plain Dealer (216/999-5555). Also check your local newspapers.
• Call all animal wardens and agencies of all surrounding suburbs. Because many of these numbers are police emergency numbers, keep the call short. Give time & place lost, breed, color, sex, size, age, & any type of identification. Be sure to call back if you find your dog.
