When I realized that my baby dog was ( He is actually around 2 years old) gone, I was extremely sad and in shock. It took me some minutes to react. I just started walking around my block and then drove around my neighborhood in an attempt to find him. After two days I realized that I could use all the potential of technology at hand to search for him. Just handing out fliers and placing posters was not enough. I realized of the real potential of webpages when I started searching for found dogs at LOSTMYDOGGIE.COM and also filled in a form. I started receiving alerts of dogs found with same characteristics. when I found out that my Dog was found two cities away from mine I realized that if I had stuck to only handing flyers and placing posters around my area, I would have never found him.
