Locating your Pet

Provided below are some tips that you may find helpful in your search.

  1. Place an advertisement in the Savannah Newspaper (652-0225), Pennysaver (238-2040), Tell-N-Sell (927-7731) and the Spirit of the Westside (748-3567). Consider offering a reward to the public. Lost and found ads are FREE in these papers. Be sure to include the date and area where you animal was lost or found.
     
  2. Post signs in nearby convenience stores, grocery stores and veterinarian's offices, not on utility poles. If a picture is included on the sign, it is easier for someone to identify your pet.
     
  3. Check with your mail carrier, garbage collectors and other individuals who regularly frequents your neighborhood.
     
  4. Check on Craigslist.org website.
     
  5. Check Lost and Found Pets in Savannah GA on Facebook.
     
  6. Check with ALL veterinarians
     
  7. Place a piece of your worn clothing in an outside area near your house. Dogs can pick up a scent a good distance away.

We hope this helps in your search for your beloved pet. If you have not already done so, you should consider micro-chipping your animals, and PLEASE put their tags on their collars.

Sincerely,
Chatham County Animal Services Staff
