Losing a pet is devastating, and it can be easy to panic and not know just what to do or where to look.
The San Diego Humane Society has a link available to view found pets in the San Diego area.
So if you are in that area go to sdhumane.org
Or locate your nearest shelter
Another good App to put the word out is
NextDoor
Veterinary clinics are another option.
Some people just don’t like to take found pets to the shelter because they will be placed in a kennel. Instead, they choose to call local shelters and veterinary clinics letting them know they have a found pet in their care. So calling around to local veterinary clinics is strongly suggested, along with flyers etc.
Is your microchip information correct?? I sure hope that is something you ALWAYS keep in mind when owning a pet.
But if your pet has a microchip that hasn’t been updated with the current address and phone number, call and update it ASAP! Your veterinarian should have your pets microchip number in their data base.
If you have found a lost pet, ALWAYS have them scanned for a microchip, to hopefully reunite them with their owner.
Always plan ahead for the Fourth of July to keep your pets safe
