Try here also. Best of luck finding Sage.
Thanks Sailboat, looks like a good site. My friend just went around putting up posters in her neighborhood.
Put up LOTS of posters. Put them up everywhere. From what I’ve learned, it takes a bunch of signs to make people look. Put them on every street sign you can touch. Call all of the rescue groups around you, call the Humane Society and call the pound.
Call everyone within a hundred miles. I’m serious about this. One of my friend’s dogs managed to get loose and 2 days later, they were turned into the pound from 40 miles away.
Be sure that you have something like REWARD $$$ on the posters.
I hope your babydog comes home soon.
My dog got out and the police picked it up. I called the police and they had taken it to a woman who takes care of lost dogs. They knew a Beagle was not thrown out.
So call the police. If you have a animal service call them.
Does Craigslist have a lost pet category?

Thanks, you all are the best. It’s now 2 am and someone dropped him off back in the yard. It’s clear he did not run off, he’s in good shape. We did the poster thing.
All the best to you,
Kat
PS I’ll send some pics of this gorgeous dog soon!
Glad it ended well.
Oh, I’m glad he’s home. But I missed the chance to post my strategy, which I made up when Hotrod ran away a few summers ago. So…I’m gonna post it anyway; maybe it’ll be helpful to someone else sometime. Keep in mind we live in a small town, so that would maybe have an effect on how someone else may handle it.
I knew knew KNEW he’d run off to try to find our old house, because we’d moved 6 months before and then escaped when the kids and I were out of town. So I had a strong suspicion about what neighborhood he’d be in. At any rate, I mapped out a Plan:
Day 1: Search each (old and new) neighborhood on foot. Hand out fliers to every living person you see. Post fliers everywhere, including on my car windows. Call and place Missing Dog/Reward ad. Call Humane Society.
Day 2. All of day 1 activities, expanding search. Take fliers to feed/pet stores, groceries, and local vets.
Day 3. All of day 1 & 2, still expanding. Take fliers to less-local pet stores, less-local vets, feed stores, etc.
Day 4. Take fliers to all local pizza delivery places. Offer pizza guys a $20 reward for giving me an address of ANY house in town that has a boxer living in it.
Day 5. Start knocking on doors in the neighborhood I suspected he’d run away to. Knock on every door in the neighborhood until I find my dog.
That was as far as my plan got. On Day 3, the first vet’s office I went into, I handed the guy a flier and said “My dog is missing…” Guy barely even looked up, glanced at the poster and said, “That dog was in here five seconds ago,” and proceeded to help us track him down to the people who’d found him.
Sure enough…he’d been found one block from my old house. I was the most ridiculously hysterical weeping woman I’d ever seen in my life. It was like an Oprah reunion show, for heaven’s sake.
Anyway…glad your booger is home.
