First steps if you lose your dog in North Stamford

  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 through Waveny Park, about 2.6 miles away, the largest green space listed nearby, then Irwin Park, about 1.8 miles off.

  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 walking in Stamford Museum & Nature Center and Mead Memorial Park 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

    Include New Canaan, about 2.6 miles east, and Scotts Corners, about 3.5 miles north, in your alert, since a dog may already have reached them.
