Timid - Do not call out to or chase!

This scruffy little girl was at the horse trials on Nations Rd near Root Tavern Rd yesterday (8/18) when something spooked her and she ran from the area. She's on the shy side and will be nervous in the unfamiliar surroundings so it is important that no one call out to her, whistle at, follow on foot or in vehicle, or chase.

08/19/2024

FOUND - Canandaigua, NY

Where's my family?

This spunky boy made no attempt to disguise his displeasure at having his adventures along Woolhouse Rd last Tues (8/13) interrupted.

After knocking on doors with no luck in finding his family, he was taken to Happy Tails, Ontario County Humane Society for safe keeping.

These two savvy shoppers stopped by the Dollar General on NY-415 near Lake Salubria and E. William St. Ext Friday (8/2) looking for some deals on treats but couldn't produce payment. They were taken to the Town Clerk who couldn't track down their family without any tags to give her clues.

08/04/2024

PUPDATE: HOME!!! - Waverly, NY
This little lady brought herself back home.

This sweet lil girl gave her family the slip this morning (8/4) and headed out from her home in the 300 block of Dry Brook Rd near Clark and Sprague Rds. She's skittish and will run, so please do not chase her or approach her.

07/27/2024

FOUND - Greenwood, NY

Do you know this dude?

This happy hooligan must have snuck out when no one was watching and was found gallivanting along County Rte. 61 on Tues (7/23). He's a smiling bouncy boy that wouldn't sit still for more photos and in his haste to stretch his legs, failed to file a flight plan with his family. He's cooling his heals with DCO Hadsell who would sure like to get him back home ASAP! If this is your runner or you have any information about him, please call 607-382-4785.

07/26/2024

PUPDATE (8/1): Thomas the Dachshund has been found safe! Both are HOME!!!
UPDATE (7/27): The boxer has been found and is full of quills. The Dachshund is still missing!
Spencer, NY

These partners in crime pulled a Houndini on Monday (7/22) and slipped away from their home on Dean Creek Rd. They've been seen together a couple miles from home but haven't found their way back or asked anyone for help. The little ring leader is wary of strangers and at this point, they are not approaching people. It is best that people do not approach them, call out to, whistle at, follow on foot or in vehicles as all of these actions have proven to spook a lost dog and cause them to move further away. If you have seen them at any time, please call their worried family.

07/26/2024

PUPDATE (7/31) This girl will be available for adoption through the Yates County Humane Society as her family never came to claim her.

Who's missing this lady?

This lovely lass is looking skeptical of the jaywalking charges that landed her in the pokey. She was found Tues (7/23) on Briggs Spicer Rd. which runs between Chubb Hollow and Himrod Rds. without any ID. What sounded like a good idea at the time has her contemplating the error of her ways with the Yates County Animal Control.

07/22/2024

PUPDATE (7/31): This little guy will be available for adoption through the Finger Lakes SPCA in Bath, NY as his family never claimed him.

Mr. Tuffy Tuff Guy here is pretty irked after his tiny butt was apprehended for running at large without supervision Sat (7/20) on Route 417 near the Andover town line. He's being quite uncooperative, insists he wasn't doing anything wrong, and is demanding to be released at once! He's not giving up his address and his collar didn't have any tags so that his parents could be notified.

07/22/2024

PUPDATE (7/27): ADOPTED!!!
Bath, NY

This beautiful boy was looking for a campsite for the weekend on Knight Settlement Rd. near Campers Haven Campgrounds on Sat (7/20) but couldn't produce a credit card or photo ID to reserve his site.

07/21/2024

PUPDATE (7/31): This magnificent boy will be available for adoption through Humane CNY in Syracuse as his family never came for him.

Who's missing a hound?

"Dude! Not cool locking me up like this! I was on a mission of utmost importance and was hot on the trail of a nefarious critter!" This hunky hound had his search interrupted along Cunningham Creek Rd. last Monday (7/15).

07/21/2024

PUPDATE (8/5):
We've just heard that this sweetheart is available for adoption through the Hornell Area Humane Society!

This spunky young lad, wearing a camo collar, was out exploring last Tues (7/16) on Hayes Rd. which runs between Bath-Cameron and Buck Settlement Rds. He has also been seen on County Rd 10, Clark Rd, and Stonehouse Rds. He's a very sweet boy!

07/20/2024

PUPDATE (7/29): ADOPTED!!!
Campbell/Savona/Dix, NY

May be missing from Steuben County or beyond. Please spread the word far and wide to find his family. He's now safe with the HS of Schuyler County 607-594-2255 Ext 201.

This traveling man has been putting a lot of miles on his tired paws over the past few weeks. He has been seen multiple times over the past two weeks in the area of Stony Ridge Rd. in Campbell. More sightings reported on County Rd. 17 in Savona on Sat (7/13), Dusenbery Rd. in Savona on Tues afternoon (7/16), near Stones Garage on County Rte. 333 in Campbell on Wed evening (7/17), then he popped up in Schuyler County Friday morning (7/19) in the areas of Sugarhill Rd, County Road 21, and Templar Rd. in the towns of Dix/Orange.

People reported that he was injured, limping, and had tangled with a porcupine. There is no way to know where he originated from as we’ve seen lost dogs make large loops between where they first became lost, food sources, and shelter.

Our partners at Lost Dogs of Schuyler County once again sprang into action and immediately put out the word then worked to bring him to safety. The amazing community reported sightings and LDOSC, using their dog catching superpowers and super nummy treats, were able to quickly gain his trust and lure him into to a slip lead. He was taken to the Humane Society of Schuyler County where they took him right to the vet to be seen and have the quills removed. He’s now resting comfortably with the kind folks at the shelter.

If you are missing this super sweet and gorgeous boy or have any information on where he lives, please call the shelter at 607-594-2255 Ext 201. Our heartfelt thanks go out to everyone involved in bringing this runner to safety, to the ever-fabulous Lost Dogs of Schuyler County, and to the Humane Society of Schuyler County for keeping him safe and getting him the emergency medical attention that he needed.

FOUND - Ithaca, NY

Pssssst! Hey, you with the biscuits, tell the boss I've been framed!
This spunky lass was out strutting her stuff on Cherry Street Tues (7/16) without supervision. She's cooling her heels at the Tompkins County SPCA and is waiting for her family to post bail and bust her out. If this is your wayward lass or you know where she left her folks, please call the shelter at 607-257-1822 Ext. 237 and reference Animal ID # 35340. Please note, that the ID tag was given to her by the SPCA when she arrived at the shelter.

07/17/2024

FOUND - Cortland, NY

Captain Kangaroo was bouncing around the City of Cortland Saturday (7/13) until his outdoor safari was cut short after running from the po po on Court Street of all places! During his arraignment, he made no attempt to hide his displeasure and plead the fifth. He's been relinqushed to Country Acres Animal Shelter and is awaiting redemption. If you recognize this troublemaker or are missing him, please call the shelter at 607-749-2734.

07/17/2024

STILL MISSING - June 1st thru June 17

STILL MISSING - New York Finger Lakes region June 2019 PUPDATE 6/27: After 24 days and 23 nights on his own, ABEL HAS BEEN FOUND!!! Thank you to everyone who shared, watched for him, and called in sightings! This family is now whole again. PUPDATE 6/18: TASHA is HOME!!! PUPDATE 6/18: ZOEY is HOME!!! PUPDATE 6/16: MATEUSZE is HOME!!! Please continue to watch for the others.

Scent is the most important sense to a dog. When their world is turned upside down it tells them what is safe and what to run from... and after 3 long and cold months of being lost it reminds them of who their family is. Welcome HOME pretty girl and a huge thank you to Dee Foster Reese and all who made it happen!
