The best advice of all: make sure your pet has identification at all times. This may be a collar and/or identification tag (even indoor pets should be wearing identification all the time) or a tattoo or implanted microchip. (Contact the Fayetteville Animal Shelter or other animal shelters or organizations for information on tattoos and microchips.) The first thing to do if a pet is missing is to contact all animal shelters and animal control agencies in the area. Pets may wander quite a distance, or someone may pick up an animal and turn it in to a distant shelter. So contact shelters and agencies within a 60-mile radius. Provide them with a good description and a recent photograph. If there is no local shelter, contact the police. If you believe your pet has been stolen, notify the police. Search the neighborhood. Walk or drive around several times a day, especially early morning and early evening. Carry a recent photograph and ask everyone you see if they have seen your pet. Offer a reward (it is usually better not to say how much the reward might be).

Companion Animals in Crisis Companion animals are cute, cuddly, and make great friends. Few can resist a cute little puppy or kitten. Why then are there so many companion animals in crisis? Currently, there is a major companion animal overpopulation problem. According to the Humane Society of the United States, about 70,000 puppies and kittens are born every 24 hours. That's 7 animals born for every human born! Even more sobering is the fact that 8 to 10 million cats and dogs enter shelters each year. About half of these animals are euthanized. Clearly, there is a need to counteract this problem. You, along with the Michigan Department of Agriculture, can help reduce the problem of animal overpopulation and provide a safe and healthy pet environment. MDA's Regulatory Responsibilities Various state programs have been established to help regulate the pet industry as well as protect the safety and well-being of companion animals in Michigan. Dr. Steve Halstead, a veterinarian with the Michigan Department of Agriculture (MDA) is the manager for the companion animal program for the State of Michigan. In this position, Dr. Halstead oversees three areas: Dog Law, Dog Identification, and Pet Shop and Animal Shelter Regulation. Dog Law Authority for the Dog Law is listed under Public Act 339 of 1919, as amended. The program involves the partnership of local animal control officers and other local law enforcement officials. It allows for various program duties that are enforced and managed by local authorities. These responsibilities range from rabies vaccinations to the enforcement of leash restraint regulations.

Pet Overpopulation
Pet overpopulation is a big problem not only in Los Angeles, but all over the country. The simple truth is there are too many homeless dogs and not enough good homes. Having our pets altered is a solid and effective defense against overpopulation in that it places few and fewer offspring in kill-shelters. Below are a few of the grisly statistics compiled by national publications and animal rights organizations. If we are aware of the problem, perhaps we can be part of the solution.
    It costs U.S. taxpayers an estimated $2 billion each year to round up, house, kill, and dispose of homeless animals. (USA Today) Over 56% of dogs and puppies entering shelters are killed, based on reports from over 1,055 facilities across America. ( National Counsel on Pet Population Study An estimated 5 million cats and dogs are killed in shelters each year. That's one about every six and one half seconds. ( The Humane Society of the United States ) Millions more are abandoned, only to suffer from illness or injury before dying. (

PROFILE - THE HUMANE SOCIETY OF THE UNITED STATES’
DISASTER SERVICES PROGRAM
"To promote the safety and well-being of all animals who are or may be adversely affected during a disaster. To respond to the needs of those who provide emergency and supportive care to animals during all phases of a disaster. To promote the inclusion of the animal component in all federal, state, and local government disaster plans, and those developed by the general public, by engaging in an ongoing process of proactive education and mutual awareness of the needs of animals in disasters. To encourage cooperation with other animal protection organizations, veterinary associations, disaster relief agencies, and government officials." - The Humane Society of the United States’ (HSUS) Mission Statement for Disaster Services
The HSUS has responded to disasters throughout its history. However, in 1992, its efforts culminated into the development of the Disaster Services Program after Hurricane Andrew devastated a 20-by-50 square mile area south of Miami. At that time, HSUS staff joined local animal groups in establishing the first-ever temporary pet shelter/veterinary MASH unit, a model that has been used in disasters affecting animals ever since.
The HSUS Disaster Services Program works on three levels: Preparedness, Awareness, and Response. The number and severity of disasters appear to be increasing and having a major impact on all types of animals and their owners, primarily because of a lack of comprehensive and coordinated planning. Through the years, The HSUS has determined its efforts should go beyond assisting animals already impacted by disasters. A major focus should be on the development of proactive animal disaster plans on local, state, and national levels.

Hearts United for Animals is a no-kill shelter, sanctuary and animal welfare organization dedicated to the relief of suffering. We take the creatures who are lost, afraid, hungry or ill and comfort them, give them a warm soft bed, good food, medical care and most of all, love. In many ways this is a very easy thing to do because these are lovely grateful animals who give a world of love in return. In other ways, it is very difficult because the number of animals in need is so large. Hearts United for Animals not a typical shelter. There are no cages. The dogs share large fenced fields where they romp and play with friends. We know and love every one of our dogs. Every dog that is adopted from Hearts United for Animals has been altered, is current on all vaccinations, is heartworm negative and is on heartworm and flea preventative. We can tell you in detail about their personalities and likes and dislikes. Hearts United for Animals has two shelters. Our new shelter is located on a 65 acre farm. The first shelter is located on a 40 acre tree farm. We have over 250 dogs at any time. We rescued approximately 1500 dogs last year. All of the dogs at this Shelter are well loved and happy. We also rescue cats although not in the same numbers. If you have the opportunity to come to Nebraska, we hope that you will visit us. The Westsiders do!

As with popping eyes they saw How a great big grey police dog Calmly walked in through the door.
