What to do if you lost your pet

Every dog owner worries about losing their canine companion. No doubt you have a plan for locating your lost dog. But what do you do if you find someone else’s pup? You’ll naturally want to reunite the dog with its owner as soon as possible, but how can you help that pet return to the right family?

How do you contact the owner? And how can you keep your pets safe around a found dog if you decide to take it into your home while you wait? Having the answers to these critical questions can ultimately prove the difference in making sure a lost dog finds its way back home.
