First steps if you lose your dog in Abilene

  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 Cedar Creek and Lytle Creek, the two nearest waterways, then into Red Bud Park, about 2.9 miles away.

  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 local police and the 3 vet practices within about 3 miles straight away, while others keep searching.

  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 walking in Oscar Rose Park and Grover Nelson Park to watch and call calmly, and not to 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 Impact, about 3.6 miles north, and Wylie, about 5.8 miles south-west, in your alert, since a dog may already have reached them.
