My dogs are missing

I wonder why they left? when dogs are not happy they run away. I am not saying you mistreated them, but that is a sign, did they brake away from a chain? If you do get them back, you need to invest in a invisible fence.

Oh I do hope they come back soon!! I know what's it like! Our dog has escaped our backyard some many times (esp at first once she figured out there was another world beyond our yard and until we found a great way to keep her in). My hubby will got out canvasing the neighborhood until he gives up or finds her. Sometimes he does find her but other times the neighbor behinds us calls the dog warden and he has got her a couple of times (but we got her back both times). We also have two other good neighbors that actually looks out for her and keeps her for us if they see her. During all these times we worked on third (of course we're back there again LOL) so we'd be asleep in the afternoons and it's so dark in the back we won't know she was gone until we got home the next morning. Which sucks but what ya gonna do? Once she was gone for like 2 weeks and we'd given up hop e on getting her back then we went to renew my drivers license and I'll be damn - there she was at our small court house just walking around!!!! It was a good 2 miles from our house too! Once though a neighbor a few streets over actually stole her off the street!!! Luckily he was dumb enough to actually walk her around here and my hubbys friend (neighbor across the street) seen her and came to get us as soon as we got home the next morning. He knew where the theft lived - so they went and took her! She wasn't feeling well as she hadn't been eating good those few days he had her. But she was really excited to see my hubby and ran up and jumped on him as soon as he walked into the door. That was the last time she escaped and it's been a while THANKFULLY lol.

I had an indoor Siamese cat that was lost for two weeks and some kids found her under a bush just 2 streets away. She was starving but after a good meal and some loving she was fine. The worst was my Schatzie (my avatar) who got out and she was only 6 months old Ran down out street , I chased after her, slipped and fell into a ravine, she went down and up the ravine into the woods. I have to go to the hospital as I injured my elbow, the bone was sticking out of the skin. Waited in the ER for 4 hours with me crying my eyes out for my lost baby. Got home at 11pm but no Schatzie and it was the coldest night we had had only 23F. I bawled the whole night next morning I went to feed the other 2 dogs and thought I heard a strange noise so I opened the front door and there was my baby freezing cold and shivering. How she found her way back and where she hadd been I'll never know as my neighbors had searchd everywhere for her. Happy ending... she came home and I got a metal plate and 2 screws put into my elbow!

I'm so sorry that your dogs are missing. I know how stressful that is. Have you called the pound to see if they were turned in? i lost my huskies a few times. Most of the time they would show up back at home with porcupine quills to pull. Hopefully yours will be home soon.

HUH? What do you mean the dogs are missing? Oh no! I hope you find them SAFE and sound!!!

My dog just ran away the other night. I put him out in the backyard and when I went back to get him he was gone. I have no idea how he got out and we live in the downtown of our city so I was worried. My hubby and I walked the neighbourhood many times. It got dark and being thats he's a black dog we had given up. About 2 hours later I heard him barking and when I went to look out the door he was on my front porch barking to get in. Alot of dogs come back on their own, they say that dogs can smell their way back. Good luck to you and I hope they come back soon

I really hope you find your dogs, Raven. I loved my pets too and considered them my babies.

Oh no. I hope they come home safe and soon. thinking of you and your beasties.

Oh Ravenladyj I'm so sorry to hear this. I would go ballistic if somehow I was missing one of my cats...they are indoor cats in an apartment but I'm so cautious when I open the front door it's not funny as I don't want them to run out. Do your dogs have microchips to track/trace them?? My prayers go out to you that you find your babies

I'm really sorry your dogs are missing. I will say a prayer that they show up safe and sound. I'm sure they will. Dogs can always find their way back home.

I hope you are able to get them back. I have only lost my dog a couple of times and only cause he slipped out of the leash. I was always able to catch him in a few minutes but it was still worrying to not know where he was or what roads he'd run on. You might want to invest in a physical fence rather than an invisible one though. The invisible fences aren't that secure, many dogs run through them for various reasons, could be wildlife or something else, and won't come back inside the fence once they're out. I would never trust my dog outside alone for even a minute if the only fence to keep him home was an invisible fence.

I am so sorry your dogs got out, I hope you have had luck finding them or getting closer now. One of my cats got outside once and ran into a corn field because she had figured out how to open the porch door (smart cat). I walked through the six foot tall corn searching for that cat for nearly an hour and when I gave up I went to head back towards the house and there she was, sitting in the middle of the driveway. There have been worse scenarios, I'd rather not discuss them because I believe they would upset you but I do hope you get your doggies back.

AWW good luck youll get them back though i just know it. 2 years back my dog ran away for 2 weeks and came back amazingly... it was such a blessing
