When pets go missing most people do not know what resources are available to them. In addition to the assistance of a Pet Detective many owners do not know all of the shelter locations in the area. Do you know that most shelters only offer a 72 hold period and in some cities it is only 48 hours? Please take the time to educate yourself on all the possible places a picked up pet can be taken to or transferred to. Also take the time to check the shelters in person.
