A post worth resharing to help lost pets, no matter the temperature āļøāļø
LPTDās recent suggestions were for recovery efforts regarding 2 missing bloodhounds and 1 missing German Shepherd.
Two of my favorite breeds that unfortunately use their noses to get into troubleā¦BUT have the capability to also use this organ to its fullest potential and track/air scent itās way back home, or to a familiar object.
Our suggestion of hanging a familiar object such as the humanās own blanket/sheet/jacket/etc (any familiar scent really, even rub it all over other pets from homeā¦whatever) up on a tree limb near home, or last place seen, or where you would like to have the lost pet return to.
Use these objects like a wind sock, the familiar scent particles will travel along with any breeze, even if it rained or freezes, itāll be off the ground and adds more value than just a blanket laying flat on the ground.
Itās hopeful the dog will air scent this article and use its nose like a compass and aid in this desired direction.
*Success for the blanket/sheet hang for all 3:
The German Shepherd was seen by its owner under the blanket the following day.
The 2 bloodhounds had tracks in the snow next to the sheet which were followed by the owner and located shortly afterwards.
Just another implement we share in our toolbox š§° š¾
