Post flyers everywhere, and put in neighbors's mailboxes! My friend lost her dog, Marley, and someone saw the flyer, at a gas station, about 4 miles from her home. Marley was visiting the man's border collie every morning. My girlfriend's daughter had border collies, so Marley was used to hanging around them. It was so sweet! He returned home safe and sound! Once about 15 years ago, our cat got out. We posted flyers and got a call that our Shadow was hanging out in a crawlspace, at a construction site right near our house. I am a big believer in flyers!
