Roaming for 2 days in Fort Lauderdale, Florida… Gary is now SAFE & HOME!!!

Here is Gary’s story….

I'm not sure where to begin to explain the nightmare that began at 1am on July 5th. Gary, my handsome boy was being babysat by a dog sitter. Not my usual, but someone who I thought was trustworthy. I had a very strange feeling around 11pm and woke up at 1am to a call from the dogsitter that Gary jumped her fence and ran off. Immediately, I knew something was off and my gut was right.

I was desperate. I had friends, strangers from online and everyone in between looking for Gary. I kept getting recommendations to hire Jamie Katz the Pet Detective. I shrugged it off thinking it was ridiculous, especially because of Ace Ventura the 'Pet Detective" (my last name being Einhorn and Jim Carey ruining my childhood with Lois Finkle/ Ray Einhorn). I couldn't have been more wrong. Once in contact with Jamie, we went over a very strategic line of questioning about Gary, his personality and what happened. Within 20 minutes of that Jamie had two of her dogs- both air and ground scent trained trackers (I believe this is the correct term) on the ground on an official mission. We walked what felt like to me the whole state, but her and her dogs (Lois (I know) and Gable worked until I couldn't move a muscle anymore and tracked every single spot Gary's scent was. Needless to say, it was a lot.

With very little hope after not seeing him or having any sign of life or spotting from the public, I followed what Jamie said- exactly. She provided me with everything needed in a hopeless situation and in less than 12 hours from the time I hired this hero on earth, my baby was back home and safe with me. At 3:30 am this morning she ran out of her house to meet me and by 5:30 am I was in bed (after a bath) with Gary.

I wish I could properly convey how thankful I am to Jamie and her dogs. This is the best way I know how. If your dog ever goes missing, DO NOT wait- call Jamie and get her on the case immediately. I would pay her 20x over for what she did for me and Gary.

Thank you, Jamie, Lois and Gable- you saved this little family. ❤

🚨11 Safety Tips for the 4th of July 🚨

1. Leave your pets at home for the fireworks/festivities.

2. Secure your pet in an enclosed room or kennel while not home.

3. Don't leave pets unattended outside, even in a fenced in yard even for a minute on or before the 4th and after.

4. Make sure your pet is wearing a collar with current ID tags & call the microchip company to make sure your information is updated.

5. Take profile photos of your pets standing on all fours just in case you need to make a lost pet sign.

6. Have the TV, radio and fans turned up in each room for your pets, even if your home.

7. Put up baby gates in front of the doors to prevent an escape or to give you a two second head start to catch if they try to jump over.

8. Keep your pets secured in a bedroom while company is over so they don’t get out the front door when opened and closed.

9. Walk your dogs leashed hours prior to the fireworks. Martingale collars are safest collars for your dogs to not be able to back out of if scared. Also purchase a whistle go explorer gps just in case they do escape.

10. Keep your pets inside during the fireworks.

11. This is just in case you need a 100% scent article of your pet.

Put on a pair of gloves, take a few pieces of sterile gauze, rub all over your pets belly & neck for 30 seconds (do not rub gauze near the face, there is too much bacteria on the face and mouth. Put the gauze in a new non-scented ziplock bag, write your pets name & date on the outside of the ziplock bag and store in a drawer for safe keeping. (There is a video of how to get a proper scent article of your pet on this page for reference).

🚨 I also just started a new lost pet app, it’s called "ROSIE”. It’s one map for all lost & found pets in the world to be posted, there will soon be no need to search thousands of pages and groups, or other platforms. One map, one location, for all lost pets in the world.

On “Talking Animals,” my guest this week will be , a Fort Lauderdale-based real-life pet detective. A licensed private investigator, Katz has worked in this specialized field for many years, reuniting lost-or stolen-pets with their owners, often assisted by her tracking dogs. While Katz tends to get hired most often to locate cats and dogs, sometimes the missing pet is a bird, like an African parrot, or other more exotic animal. She has plenty of colorful stories, and we’ll aim to hear many of them, as well as her advice if your pet goes missing. “TalkingAnimals,” May 21, at 11am ET, on 88.5 Fm (88.5 FM) in Tampa, streaming at WMNF.org.
