Click on the banner above, or go to PetFBI.org to create a free listing for a lost or found pet. This will enter the pet into the PetFBI.org location-based, searchable database and generate flyers for you to use. PetFBI has merged with Helping Lost Pets. We're the largest database in North America. Once you complete your registration we will be notified and share to social media sites. A volunteer will provide you with tips. Search to see if your pet is already on our database. Check back frequently for new listings. All of the services provided by PetFBI and Lost Dogs Florida are 100% FREE for shelters and the public to use!
You'll need a photo to complete your registration. Using a good, clear photo is one of the most important things you can do to find your dog - or reunite the one you found!
The better the photo the quicker the dog is likely to be reunited! A stranger needs to be able to recognize the dog from the photo you provide. If possible, the photo include the dog's full body and face and show any unusual coloring, features, or markings. Many volunteers search shelter websites, social media sites, Craigslist, etc. to look for possible matches of lost and found dogs. A good photo will help them reunite more dogs- and will make it more likely your dog will get back home!
Crop out any distractions such as people, furniture and other pets. We will not post photos with people or of chained dogs. We've found that photos of sleeping pets are not very good for getting people's attention, so use these as a last resort. We understand you may not have the ideal photo, but these guidelines will help you. If we need to ask for another photo, this will delay your dog from being posted to our social media sites.
If you have several photos of the dog from different angles you can make a collage at Pixler Express.
Color flyers attract the most attention, but it's okay to print black and white if you're watching your pennies. The key is to print up as many as possible to distribute.
Flyers are the #1 way to reunite a lost (or found) dog. Print them up. Knock on doors. Talk to as many people as possible. Leave a flyer in their hands. Even if they haven't seen your dog yet, they may tomorrow or next week. They need to have a photo of him and your phone number handy when they do. Expand your flyering area every few days. Be sure to give a flyer to your mail man, delivery people, school bus driver, animal shelter, and police department. Take TWO flyers to each vet clinic - one for their waiting room and another for their employee break room.
Thank you to Pet FBI for offering free, easy to create, instant flyers!
