First steps if you lose your dog in Stirling

  1. 1

    Search outward along roads, paths and fields — a dog can cover several kilometres in the first few hours.

    Tip from locals

    Search Bruce View Community Park, about 1.3 miles away, and follow the Pelstream Burn, about 1 mile off, out of town.

  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 Royal Gardens and Beechwood Park to watch and call calmly rather than chase, both within 0.8 miles of the centre.

  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 Fallin to the east, about 2.5 miles, and Cowie to the south-east, roughly 3.7 miles, in the alert, since a dog may already have reached them.
