First steps if you lose your dog in Prescot

  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 Prescot Brook and the Mill Brook, which act as corridors, then check Sherdley Park, about 2.7 miles away, and Ravenhead Nature Park, roughly 2.5 miles off.

  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 in Stadt Moers Country Park, about 0.9 miles away, and Taylor Park, roughly 1.7 miles off, 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 Rainhill, about 1.7 miles south-east, Netherley, roughly 3.1 miles south-west, and Deysbrook, around 3.4 miles west, in your alert, since a dog may already have reached them.
