It with a happy heart that I report Preza has been found alive and well at 5:30 am! There are so many people that I want to thank that either shared the post, were willing to come out at 7:30 and search, or let me go out to find her! This mans post is the reason I was able to find her so fast. I read it a few years ago and never forgot it. I place all my clothes/blankets at the location of the car and the last spot my mom saw her. I went around and check early this morning and there she was nestled in my clothing where we had left the car earlier that day! “On day 12 of searching for my dog in a heavily wooded area, distraught and hopeless, I ran into a couple of hunters. They said they lost the occasional dog on a hunt but always got them back. What they told me has helped many dogs and families be reunited. I’ve given their advice out a few times in the last couple days, so I thought if reddit has any lost dogs out there, this could help: The dog owner(s) should take an article of clothing that has been worn at least all day, the longer the better, so the lost dog can pick up the scent. Bring the article of clothing to the location where the dog was last seen and leave it there. Also, if the dog has a crate & familiar toy, you can bring those too (unless location undesirable for crate). You might also want to leave a note requesting item(s) not to be moved. Leave a bowl of water there too, as the dog probably hasn’t had access to any. Do not bring food as this could attract other animals that the dog might avoid. Come back the next day, or check intermittently if possible. Hopefully the dog will be waiting there. I was skeptical and doubted my dog would be able to detect an article of clothing if he didn’t hear me calling his name as loud as possible all day for 12 days. But I returned the next day and sure enough found him sitting there! I hope this helps someone out there who’s missing a best friend. Good luck :)“ Read more at reshareworthy/how-to-find-a-lost-dog/#kkKHAx5ufTBAdRl3.99
