Texas Pet Detectives Association Search and Rescue for Missing Pets
Having a missing pet is one of the most devastating and daunting experiences we can imagine.
(238)

People in the midst of this crisis are physically exhausted and emotionally drained, which can leave them open to scams and mistakes. We provide professional and compassionate search management, giving our clients the best chance of recovering their lost pet. Lost Pet Specialist uses trained search dogs to find lost cats in Texas and neighboring states. Our clients also learn to use the best techn

iques for their unique scenario. We can even provide search strategies by phone or Skype so that no one needs to face this situation alone, no matter their budget or location. If you are missing a dog, we can still help, but we no longer track them with search dogs. We found that tracking dogs rarely results in bringing them home alive. The simplest explanation is that dogs run and cats hide. By the time we are called out, most dogs are miles away or they have been picked up by a someone. For people with lost dogs, we offer in-depth phone consultations to get your search on the right track.

Tango found Leo back in January on a cold day in Highland Village. I was so worried about him when I looked at the satellite map of the neighborhood because they are smack in the middle of a wooded area near Lake Lewisville that is teeming with predators. Even his family was convinced that he would surely have been killed or died in the 10 days he'd been missing . They really just wanted to recover his body if possible . But once I pulled into the driveway I could see that there were plenty of hiding places for Leo to stay safe. I don't think we had been working 30 seconds when Tango stopped, pointed like a bird dog, and stared intently into the bushes near the open foundation of the lake house from which Leo had escaped. I followed her gaze and saw two golden eyes blinking back at me. Apparently Leo is quite the fighter and even his family didn't dare try to pick him up. So he had to be lured step by step into the house. Welcome home Leo!

Even though we have almost as many unhappy endings as we do safe recoveries in our work finding cats, I rarely post about the sad ones. But I hope this one is educational. Most people expect that a predator attack on a cat would result in a pretty gory scene but that is almost never the case. In fact, there's barely any physical evidence at all.

I've been trying to attract a bluebird to my yard for years and this guy finally showed up at my bird bath yesterday! Yes, I did drive to Petco to get him some live mealworms. He (& possibly his friends) have eaten 17 worms today.

Ulrik, a super shy Siberian who prefers spending his time ensconced in the innards of a recliner chair, managed to escape under mysterious circumstances from his home in Hutto TX on Jan 2. His family had another search team out a few days later and Buck and Tango arrived to continue the search on Day 9. The only alert my dogs gave was at a storm drain a few blocks away but the clients dutifully followed instructions at that location... to no avail. They were already offering a $1,000 reward and when a friend offered to match that, I suggested updated neon posters with the bigger reward....$2,000. Well, there's a little boy--a very observant little boy--who happened to notice both the sign and the cat (who was sitting right next to a different storm drain) as he drove through the neighborhood with his mom. Somebody's college fund just got a nice bump!! The storm drain where my dogs alerted was about a 1000 feet from where Ulrik was ultimately spotted by the boy. My clients rushed to the sighting this afternoon and called me for additional instructions. He was back in the drain when they arrived, but it was a delight to hear Ulrik meowing loudly as we strategized his safe recovery after 17 DAYS UNDERGROUND. Welcome home Ulrik!
