ALWAYS OFFER A REWARD (see Willy's story on the Lost Dog page)
		Notify all shelters and rescue organizations and make sure they get a flyer.
		Physically check these shelters regularly as many of the workers are not up on breeds and will call an Aussie a Collie mix. If there are construction sites in the area, let them know about the missing dog.
		Put up posters/flyers in neighborhood vet offices/grocery stores/shopping plazas/fast food restaurants.
		Notify police agencies....some are not very receptive but you never know.
		Make announcements on radio stations that are willing to do on-air pleas for help finding the dog.
		Place a Lost and Found ad in the newspaper. Also, check the pets for sale column in the newspaper just in case someone has taken him or found him and is now trying to place him.
		Notify your postal carrier and ask him to put up a flyer in the post office. These people see neighborhoods up close and personal. Make sure they know there is a reward.
		Notify neighborhood kids. Again, the kids are all over the neighborhood. Make sure they know there is a reward. If you can get the kids interested they will really help look and they will tell friends in other neighborhoods.
		If you know the UPS man who drives in your area, tell him. Again, he is in the neighborhood and sees a lot of what is going on.
		Put flyers up at any large gathering such as county fairs, concerts, etc. You usually get a good cross section of people from all over the community at these events.
		If you live in the city or the dog was lost in the city, tell cab drivers and make sure finding the dog will be beneficial to them...enough that missing a cab fare is okay. Any company that does deliveries throughout an area should be told.
		If you live in the country tell the 4H clubs, the oil workers, the electricity, gas, water company employees...TELL EVERYONE AND GIVE THEM A COLOUR POSTER WITH THE DOG'S PHOTO ON IT....especially tell the kids with horses that trail ride.
		Stop at all working or hobby farms as many of these get dump offs all the time and would not think to look in the lost sections of the newspaper if a new dog showed up.
		Tell all local dog clubs and ask to have your flyer printed in their newsletter and offer to pay the extra expense.
		Send emails to discussion lists....long shot but you never know where a dog could be after a couple days.
		Phone the bus drivers in your area (especially school busses!). They travel a lot in a day and notice dogs.
