First steps if you lose your dog in Maghull

  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 Whinny Brook and the Upland Drain, then Rimrose Valley Country Park, about 2.9 miles away, a larger green corridor to head for.

  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 walkers in Tower Hill Park and Northwood Forest Hills to watch and call calmly rather than chase, as they are about 2.7 and 3 miles away.

  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

    Include Gillmoss, about 4.4 miles to the south-east, and Walton, around 4.8 miles to the south, in the registry alert so the owner covers the neighbourhoods a dog may already have reached.
