First steps if you lose your dog in Newton-le-Willows

  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 Sankey Valley Park and the Sankey Canal, then Pennington Flash Country Park, about 2.9 miles away.

  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 dog walkers at Pennington Flash and Lyme and Wood Pits Country Park 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

    Include Winwick, about 1.2 miles south, Burtonwood, around 2.8 miles south-west, and Ashton in Makerfield, about 3.1 miles north-west, in the alert.
