If the dog was lost recently, walk/drive around the area asking members of the community if they have seen your dog. ACC reminds all pet owners make sure your dog is licensed and always kept on a leash when outside, that your cat is kept indoors, your pet is wearing a tag and has a registered microchip. Upon request, we will allow any user to “opt out” of further promotional contacts at any time. We are looking to appoint an experienced Veterinarian for an exciting leadership opportunity.
Search everywhere in your apartment/house and around your property, make sure to check every nook and cranny. Just because you don’t see or hear your cat, it doesn’t mean they aren't close to home! Try going out at night and using a flashlight to look for the reflection in their eyes. Approach slowly making minimal noise, bring treats, and use a soft tone of voice. Make sure your dog has a collar and tags with up-to-date contact info.
First, let's go over the 4 major mistakes people make when their dog gets lost.
Exciting opportunity for a Veterinarian to practice shelter medicine at our fast growing Cranbourne shelter. The Lost Dogs’ Home cannot accept doonas, pillows, sheets or pet beds, as they can be difficult to clean and maintain for re-use. The Home’s spokeswoman Suzana Talevski said both its Cranbourne and North Melbourne shelters were critically low of blankets and newspapers. Meet the 12 Pets of Christmas and find out how you can help give them, and thousands more, the best chance to find a home in time for Christmas.
Microchips with up-to-date info are extremely important! If your lost pet is brought to any shelter or veterinary office, they will scan them for a microchip and contact you! Here at ACC, we reunite hundreds of animals per year specifically because of microchips!

Though ACC will never charge you for the text messages you receive, depending on your phone plan, you may see some charges from your mobile provider. Check outside at night.Most cats return home within a week and come home between the hours of midnight and 7 am. Check your doors and look out the window during that time if you are able to do so.
Being able to see your pet in their entirety is very helpful for shelters and people assisting in the search. Other details to have ready are approximate weight, age, and any distinctive features/markings on your pet.
