How do I find my lost pet?

The first step is to fill out a lost pet report on 24Petconnect (https://24petconnect.com/BreedRequest/Lost ). It is highly encouraged to add a picture of your pet to the lost pet report. If you do not have a picture, try to write a good description of your pet with any unique or unusual coat patterns in the description. If you have trouble filling out the lost report, or do not have access to a computer, please give us a call and we will walk you through the process and help you fill out the report if needed.

We recommend monitoring the list of found animals at the shelter on 24Petconnect: Found Animals Currently in Shelter If one of the found pets on 24Petconnect matches the description of your pet, please contact the shelter to make an appointment to do a walk-through in-person.

Lost reports on 24Petconnect are kept for 30 days.

There are additional online resources available where you can post your lost pet’s information, some are as follows:
