    I know this is a long shot... but I lost my dog earlier today. He's 3 months old.

    I live off Kirby near Holcombe, so if anyone who is in this area that comes across him or a neighbor who had picked him up. Just post in here I guess.

    I've did the flyer thing on trees on corners, went door to door to most of the houses on my street and the next. Cause I don't think he could of gotten far. and contacts all the pet clinics/vets/spca in this area.

    If you have any helpful tips, please let me know.

    He's about 30 lbs now.

    Just so you now, it won't post immediately. Someone has to screen them first, so it won't be up until some time tomorrow.

    Thanks, I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Hopefully something comes up in the morning.

    For what its worth, I thought I lost my dog a few years ago. It crushed me. But then 5 days later she found her way back home. I cherish every moment I have with my dog now. I still don't know where my dog went for those days, but I used to live in a somewhat wooded area so maybe she went there for a few days.

    Good luck, and I hope you find your pup. People are generally kind. Someone probably took him in and are waiting to see a neighborhood sign pop up. Maybe post a notice on Craigslist as well.

    Good luck finding your dog.

    If it makes you feel any better, my bro-in-law lost their family dog last week. She was gone for a good 5 days or so. They looked ALL OVER the place and never found her. Earlier this week, the dog just walked up the driveway one morning like nothing had happened. She was a lot skinnier, but okay.

    Dogs have a way of finding their way home eventually. Good luck.

    Your posters are probably your best bet for getting him home. Put them out farther than you think you need to, you would be surprised how far a dog will travel.

    You can contact the city pound and humane society also. Good luck getting your dog back. Hopefully, a kind neighbor took him in and is looking for you right now.

    Yeah we're hoping some soccer mom picked 'em up and waiting to find our flyers. But no word yet. And we've made a post on Craigslist already also.

    Thanks to everyone for their kind words and help.

    Arrggh. Everytime I see this phrase I think of that movie Taken. Anyway I hope you find your dog. I'm not that far off from your area but I doubt your dog would have gotten this far. I saw a full grown dog that looks like yours but that was several days ago. I hope you find him.

    Thanks for the support, I just posted his pic/info at 2 PetSmart near my place.

    I'm running out of ideas.

    I remeber reading something about dogs wondering off in the direction of the wind. Some dog owners have found their missings pups in this fashion.

    Also, as someone who lost a pet, I always checked the gutters just in case.

    Try the SPCA. Call the city to see if they made any cleanups in your area. I know it sounds horrible but for us when they said "no" it offered hope.

    My sister did this and we got some weirdos calling wanting money. Very sketchy.
