Tips for Advertising a Lost Pet

• Never put your pet’s name in the ad – that will give an unscrupulous person control over your pet. It’s also a recommended that you not put your pet’s name on his or her ID tag for the same reason.
• Put only a partial description of your pet in the ad, so you can have callers describe your pet to you over the phone. A scam artist will not be able to describe your pet to you.
• For your safety, don’t put your home address in the ad. Just list your street or the vicinity in which your pet was lost.
