When I went to the local veterinarian offices to post my lost dog poster (I made my own) I saw three lostmydoggie.com posters for both lost and found pets. I then went to the website to add my dog to the database. I searched the found dogs database. Posting large, full-color posters on neon posterboard and handing out small slips of paper with my dogs name and my cell number to people on the street in the area he was last seen were most helpful in my search. While my dog was not ultimately found through lostmydoggie.com, I appreciated the communication channel it provided between me, a lost dog owner and people who have found pets and don't want to turn them over to the unknowns of a shelter experience. I would use lostmydoggie.com again.
