Missing Pet Search Team

02/09/2025

Vincent from Clinton ma is home safe after odor was found matching his scent item in a run down shed area with lots of hidey holes. Although we couldn’t see him the dog was alert and confident in her findings. A trail camera was set and he was on camera eating the bowl of food left. Next step was a trap and although we had a few issues along the way with trapping. We made it through those hurdles and ultimately he was caught last night. Welcome back!

We went out for Kirby today and unfortunately located significant evidence that he is no longer with us anymore. Rest in peace sweet boy.

Sophie from bridgwater is home safe after several weeks on the loose!

We started from the house with the search dog but we had no solid trail. But a few hit spots that ended up with no cat. I wasn’t sure if she was there or had been under the shed prior to taking off. It seemed the cat went far. Fast forward 2 weeks a sighting came in. So they took my trail cam over and it looked just like Sophie. Although black cats are pretty hard to tell apart. Her body was the dead give away. House cat size with an adorable hanging belly! I set a trap but she got out. We were all so bummed because we were so close. So I had them set up their tiny cage and she decided after about 12 hours that she will go in there for the food.

Search dogs are one tool in the tool box they aren’t the save all for every case. But we are here for whatever which way the case goes as a team.

Welcome home Sophie.

Welcome home Margo from Marlborough!

She is an indoor kitty who went missing accidentally from a window 9 days ago. We started the case just 24 hours ago and Mildred was on a hot pursuit trail and stopped at one house 8 doors down with high signs of odor under the house. We set up cameras and traps and caught miss Margo over night. Welcome home Margo! Thank you K-9 Mildred! 🐾

Facts about the Bloodhound

1. Scent Receptors: Bloodhounds possess a significantly higher number of scent receptors compared to other dog breeds, including humans. These receptors allow them to detect and distinguish between a vast array of odors.

2. Olfactory Bulb: The olfactory bulb, the part of the brain that processes smells, is also notably larger in bloodhounds than in humans, relative to their overall brain size. This larger olfactory bulb allows them to analyze scents in greater detail.

3. Physical Features:
Ears:
Bloodhounds' long, floppy ears are thought to act as scent-collecting tools, sweeping up scent particles from the ground and funneling them towards their nose.
Wrinkled Skin:
The folds and wrinkles on their face and head trap scent particles, helping to hold the scent close to their nose.
Ears and Wrinkles:
These features also act as blinders, helping the dog focus on the scent trail by reducing visual distractions.
Strong Neck and Shoulders:
Their well-muscled neck and shoulders allow them to keep their nose to the ground for extended periods, which is crucial for following a scent trail

Welcome home Eden from NK!

She is an indoor outdoor cat who got disheveled in her own territory. The reason was the owners mother came to town to visit from Arkansas and brought her two dogs who are very gentle and good with cats. Well Eden didn’t fancy this idea and decided to not come back since Sunday! And had to be trapped to get back home! 😆❤️

An emotional support dachshund named Bam Bam was stolen from his backyard in Logan Square on June 5. Since then, his owner, who is legally blind, says he has walked up to seven miles a day distributing flyers and calling out for Bam Bam.

The elusive captain aka cap from Taunton has been caught in my bear trap! He had been missing for 4 weeks. We initially tracked him down about 4 houses but he would not show up on your trail cam but once in a while hit our blink cameras. He would show us his face and not see him for a week. Ignore all free food in front of cameras. But one thing I noticed he was doing was going into a gated fence. With that I flushed my bear trap which also looks like a fence to the gate he enters and leaves from and caught him that way. These types of non food motivated cats are extremely difficult and I don’t think the owner would have gotten cap without proffesional help and equipment. But he is home now and acting like nothing ever happened. ❤️

Sunday marked one year since Harper had to be put to rest from the hard battle of hemangiosarcoma.

It doesn’t get easier. It gets harder. There are days where I contemplate whether I even want to continue finding lost pets without her. It’s hard to drive to a case and see another dog in the car that isn’t her.

Well guys. I am settled in my new home. And let me tell you I am a stray cat magnet. What should I name him?
