However, unless y dog <br /> ( our <br /> is wearing a license, there is no sure way of <br /> making a positive identification. <br /> Many dogs look alike and there is no way shelter <br /> personnel can be certain from your description <br /> whether or not they are holding your dog, <br /> therefore, it is vital that you visit the shelters to <br /> look for yourself. <br /> Place a Lost ad in your local newspaper and be <br /> sure to check the Found ads. Put posters up in <br /> your neighborhood. These can be very helpful <br /> especially if you include a color picture of your <br /> dog. If you list a reward, be sure not to disclose <br /> the reward amount. Frequently people will find a <br /> dog and, not knowing where to take the dog or <br /> which shelters to call, will place a found ad in the <br /> paper and not turn the dog into a shelter for <br /> several days. Therefore keep checking - many <br /> times a dog will not show up at a shelter for 2 - 4 <br /> weeks. <br /> Please remember, when your pet is found to <br /> notify the shelters, newspaper (if ad still running), <br /> and remove any flyers from the posted locations. <br /> The same procedures apply should you find a <br /> dog. Call the shelters and place a found ad in the <br /> local newspapers, most papers place found items <br /> in the paper free of charge. <br /> Where Should I Call? <br /> Linn County Dog Control, Albany 541 - 967 -3925 <br /> Albany Police Department, Albany 541 -917- <br /> 7680 <br /> Safehaven Humane Society, Albany 541 -928- <br /> 2789 <br /> Heartland Humane Society, Corvallis 541 -757- <br /> 9000 <br /> Petco <br /> Petfinder <br /> <top> <br /> Linn County Oregon <br /> 300 SW 4TH AVE <br /> PO BOX 100 <br /> Albany, OR 97321 <br /> Questions or Comments to Email <br /> Disclaimer /l <br /> http : / /www.co.linn.or.us /index.php ?content= dogcontrol /index 6/27/2013 <br />
