First steps if you lose your dog in Saltash

  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 River Tamar, about 0.9 miles away, and the Lynher River, about 1.0 miles off, then toward Antony Park, roughly 1.2 miles away, which can act as a corridor for a dog.

  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 Brunel Green, about 0.8 miles away, and Antony Park, roughly 1.2 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.

    Tip from locals

    The A38 is about 0.4 miles away and busy, so keep any scent item and water on the quieter side away from it.

  5. 5

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

    Tip from locals

    Include Torpoint, about 2.7 miles to the south-east, Landrake, about 3 miles to the west, and Forder, about 0.7 miles to the south-west, when spreading the word.
