First steps if you lose your dog in Poulton-le-Fylde

  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 Stanley Park and Wyre Estuary Country Park, both about 1.7 miles away, then along the Lucas Flash, about 1.4 miles out, since a dog can cover several miles.

  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 people in Kingscote Park, about 1.8 miles away, and Moor Park, roughly 2.1 miles off, to watch and call 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 Weeton, about 2 miles south-east, and Elswick, around 4.2 miles east, in the alert, the places a dog could already have reached.
