    That link won't work, for me. Here is what I tell folks with a lost dog:

    Make a psoter, photo and your phone number in LARGE print. Print it out IF you have a color printer. if not, save on a disc. Check the weather for the next 4 days.

    Take the one poster, or the disc, to Staples. Have them make color copies. If there will be rain sometime in the next 4 days, have about a dozen copies laminated. If no rain coming, no need to laminate any.

    Take with you: scotch tape, stapler which opens to staple on a flat surface, extra staples, and thumb tacs if you have them.

    Take one to each vet in the area. They will have post boards for lost pets. If there is a fire or police dept. in the area, take one in to them. Take one in to the local animal control, and any local shelters, rescues, SPCA.

    Post at all the area convenince stores, grocery, post office, any place people go often. Make sure you ask permission before you post.

    Start at your home, put up posters on the utility poles at every interesection for 1 mile in each direction. Use the laminated ones and the stapler. Non laminated will last about 4 days if there is NO rain.

    If there is a school in your area, enlist the help of the kids. Add a reqard, even $25 or $50 wil really get the kids looking.

    Finally, put some food out in your yard. But be aware that this will also attract raccoons, skunks and other wildlife.

    I couldn't read the post to see if this applies; but I do hope it will help.

    I posted a blog on Doggyspace.com - it shows up on the main page until there are enough blogs to knock it down. When it does, I will make a new one and keep it up there. Hopefully it will help get the word out there.


    Has she posted on petfinder, too?

    Set ablaze the billboards and their advertisements
    Love with all your hearts and never forget
    How good it feels to be alive
    And strive for your desire"
