Bring In The Experts
At the beginning of July, I got word that the dog belonging to a friend of one of my friends went missing. He got spooked by fireworks while staying at a home other than his own and took off.
I didn't know the owner, but my heart for dogs is larger than life and my dog Rosey had such a fear of fireworks she could barely leave the house on July 4. This dog was lost in Burnsville, not far from where I live, so I knew I needed to help.
When I got to the location of his last sighting, I came across the owner and several other people searching for her dog. Many people were driving slowly through the neighborhood passing out fliers and talking to anybody and everybody who was outside. Other well meaning people were walking around calling out for him, shouting his name and whistling for him.
My thought at this point was to CALL IN THE EXPERTS - The Retrievers. They are an all-volunteer team based in Minnesota offering the tools, experience and expertise to reunite people with their lost dogs.
They map out the sightings, record the dog's whereabouts, set up feeding stations and trail cameras, and if necessary, use humane live traps to safely rescue and retrieve the dogs.
Chasing, calling or yelling for a lost dog in fright mode is on the "never do" list when it comes to finding lost dogs. Not everyone knows this though...which is why it was good to call in the experts.
After 15 days, the sweet dog was safely rescued - by none other than The Retrievers! Their Facebook page has one success story after another of dogs who have been rescued because of people who called in the experts.
We ALL need to call in the experts for one thing or another, don't we? I have no idea how to fix a hole in my ceiling after a water leak so I called in the experts. Come tax season, same story. Call in the experts.
