First steps if you lose your dog in Erskine

  1. 1

    Search outward along roads, paths and fields — a dog can cover several kilometres in the first few hours.

    Tip from locals

    Search outward along the Forth and Clyde Canal path and toward Drumry Wood, about 2.4 miles away, since a running dog can cover ground fast.

  2. 2

    Call the shelter, the local police and nearby vets straight away: a loose dog is usually picked up and handed in quickly.

  3. 3

    Ask people not to chase or shout — a frightened dog runs. Crouch down, avoid eye contact and call calmly.

    Tip from locals

    Ask the dog walkers in Erskine Park, Dalmuir Park and the Wilderness, all within about 1 mile, to watch and call calmly rather than chase.

  4. 4

    Leave something carrying your scent, plus water, where he went missing, and check back regularly.

  5. 5

    Report him to the microchip registry and start a targeted alert that reaches the whole neighbourhood at once.

    Tip from locals

    Report to the microchip registry, then share the alert in Dalmuir about 0.9 miles to the north-east, Old Kilpatrick about 1.3 miles to the north and Bowling around 2.5 miles to the north-west.

Can residents request a No Dog Fouling sign in Erskine, and when might it be put up?

Renfrewshire Council accepts requests for No Dog Fouling signs in public places, but does not place them on private property or residential buildings. If the council considers a sign needed, it says it will put one up within 7 days of the request. It may decline if signs are already nearby or it does not consider dog fouling an issue there.
