WHAT TO DO IF YOUR PET IS MISSING:

CHECK AT BOTH SHELTERS

CHECK WITH YOUR NEIGHBORS

CHECK WITH YOUR NEIGHBORS

Call Roswell Humane Society Shelter at 575-622-8950 and the Roswell Animal Services at 575-624-6722.  Please be sure to visit both shelters, as your description of your pet may differ from ours.  It's better to be safe than sorry.  Also, ask Roswell Animal Services if any injured animals fitting that description have been brought in.  So, please check in person, and as often as possible.

  Check with local veterinary offices to see if your pet was brought in injured or someone was also checking area vets, trying to find the owner. 

 Check with local groomers, especially if your pet has been freshly groomed.

put up flyers

 Place flyers, especially with a picture all around your neighborhood, placing them in all directions for several blocks.  Also, ask to place them at some local businesses.  If someone is sheltering your pet, they eventually HAVE to go to the store!

  Place an ad in the Roswell Daily Record in the lost and founds.  You can also place an ad in the Shopper. 

REUNIFICATION RECOMMENDATIONS

  

It's estimated that one in three pets will become lost at some point in their lifetimes. Tragically, many will never ever be reunited with their families as they have no identification to speak for them. Before the unexpected happens, the Roswell Humane Society recommends that all dogs and cats have two points of protection:

  • A collar with an ID Tag with your current phone number as well as any license tags as required in your community.
  • A microchip ID provides a safe, effective, and permanent form of identification should your pet's collar and tag fall off or get removed.

Be sure to update your pet’s tag and microchip if your address or contact information changes. Please speak with your veterinarian about microchip IDs for your pets.
