First steps if you lose your dog in Shannon

  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 Shannon, about 3.7 km away, and the Owengarney, about 4.8 km out, where river banks can act as corridors 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.

    Tip from locals

    Call the 1 vet practice within 5 km and the local police straight away, alongside your search.

  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 Shannon Town Park and Ballycasey Park not to chase, but to watch and call you instead.

  4. 4

    Leave something carrying your scent, plus water, where he went missing, and check back regularly.

    Tip from locals

    Keep the scent item on the side away from the N19 trunk road, about 500 metres away.

  5. 5

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

    Tip from locals

    A dog may already have reached Newmarket on Fergus, about 5.6 km to the north, or Sixmilebridge, around 7.8 km to the north-east, so include both in your alert.
