First steps if you lose your dog in Wallasey

  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 towards Birkenhead Park, about 1.9 miles away, and Bidston Hill, around 2 miles off, then along the River Mersey, roughly 1 mile away, 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 dog walkers in Stanley Park, about 3 miles away, and in Upton Park, around 2.9 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

    Check Vauxhall to the east, about 2 miles away, and Dingle to the south-east, around 4.5 miles off, since a dog may already have reached them.
