What you can expect from Red Collar:
- By submitting a Recovery Request for Help, you’ll be paired with a dedicated Lost Dog Consultant—an experienced volunteer who knows how to bring missing pups home and will stick with you from start to finish.
- Upon submission of a Recovery Request for Help, you will be provided with a Recovery Roadmap that will provide you with steps to take that will give you the best chance for a successful recovery of your lost dog.
- We will help you create bright, attention‑drawing flyers if you haven't done so already.
- Once your pup starts popping up in the same area, the real fun begins! We’ll dive into online maps to track their patterns, check out the terrain, and plan our next smart moves to bring them home.
- Trapping is not always required for a dogs rescue. Our volunteers will help you navigate your search and walk you step by step as your case progresses.
- Our team is trained to deploy our humane traps and monitoring equipment for a humane trapping rescue. Confirmed sightings are required and our team of volunteers will determine if your case meets the criteria for a deployed trap.
- We provide guidance and direction on the best action steps to take in the field to aid in your dog’s recovery.
Here’s your part in making this successful:
- You agree to be available by phone or text daily.
- You agree to actively participate in the search each day.
- You agree to hang 100 flyers within 48 hours in the locations and zones directed by your Red Collar Consultant.
- You agree to assist with rescue efforts as needed, which may include (but is not limited to):
Refilling a feeding/water station daily if needed.
Following up promptly on sightings by foot or phone
Reporting sightings to your Red Collar Consultant as soon as possible
BEFORE submitting a Recovery Request for Help - we ask that you read the RESCUE STARTING LINE on our website for action steps that you can take now while you await contact from your Lost Dog Consultant!
