You’re probably tired of hearing us say, “Don’t chase.” 😅 But it’s one of the things we simply can’t say enough.

When you’re an animal lover, being told NOT to chase a loose dog goes against just about every instinct in your body. You see a dog who is scared, alone, or potentially in danger, and you want to help. You want them safe. You want them caught. You want to get them home.

We understand. ❤️

But with a lost dog, chasing can actually make recovery much harder.

A lost dog may be operating in survival mode. Even a friendly, loving dog who knows their family may behave completely differently when they’re frightened and loose. They may not come when called. They may not recognize their owner. They may run from people they normally love.

And when a dog is chased, they often learn one very important thing:

“I need to keep moving.”

That movement creates more sightings. More sightings create more people trying to help. More people chasing creates more movement. And suddenly, the dog is traveling farther and farther from the area where we need them to settle.

We call this pressure.

Instead, we want to reduce pressure.

When a dog feels safe enough to settle in one area, we can begin working with that behavior. Cameras can monitor their movements. Food can establish a routine. A trap can be strategically placed and monitored. And eventually, we have a much better opportunity to safely bring them home.

But PLEASE don’t take “don’t chase” to mean “don’t get involved.”

We need the community.

There are so many ways you can help a lost dog get home without approaching them:

🐾 Report sightings immediately
🐾 Keep an eye on an area from a distance
🐾 Help put up signs or flyers
🐾 Door knock and talk to neighbors
🐾 Help monitor cameras
🐾 Share accurate information
🐾 Help keep other people from chasing
🐾 Volunteer with the recovery effort
🐾 And most importantly, LISTEN to the recovery plan

Your instinct may be telling you, “Go get that dog.”

Sometimes the most helpful thing you can do is the opposite.

Stop. Observe. Report. Then get involved in the recovery process in a way that actually helps the dog.

Because getting a lost dog home isn’t always about being the person who catches them. Sometimes it’s about being the person who helped create the conditions that finally allowed them to come home. ❤️

Questions? Ask away! We’re always happy to explain the “why” behind lost-pet recovery.

Let this sink in.

Whenever you feel guilty about not giving your dog the best life, whenever you feel like you are working too late while your dog is at home, whenever you think about surrendering your dog because you “can’t give them the life they deserve”,
just look at this picture of kennel manager Trevor Denham and the team at getting ready for dinner time.
You can see one dog with his paw out waiting for his food❣️🐾❣️
For these dogs locked in their kennels, this is the highlight of their day, they have absolutely nothing. Your dog would much prefer being on your sofa waiting for you to come home, rather than being stuck in here, I promise you are doing just fine….❤️🐾❤️

Kind can be boring.
Sometimes it needs to be.

We want to show them their new life.
But they might need time to recover from the old one first.

And I completely understand the excitement.

You've brought this dog home and you want to give them everything.
All the things that say, "look how good your life can be now"!

But they don't know that yet.

They don't know this house is permanent.
They don't know which noises matter.
They don't know the people walking through the door.

Even the routines they relied on have changed.
Everything's changed.

But one thing we do know.

They arrived with a history.

Sometimes one we know quite a lot about.
Sometimes one we know almost nothing about.

So while we're thinking about all the wonderful things we'd like to add into their life, they may still be trying to make sense of the life they have just landed in.

That's why making their world smaller for a while isn't necessarily depriving them.
It can be giving them fewer things to process at once.

And then, when their new world starts making a bit more sense, it can grow.

There is plenty of time for adventures.
But they don't need to experience their whole new life in their first week.

Please ❤️🙏🏻

These 2 were lucky. They were strays that came in to Rochester Animal Services. They got lucky we pulled them. Right now there's too many dogs that are just getting dumped on the streets. They have no choice. The shelter has to take them. There's not enough room. There's not enough people. There's not enough adoptions. There's not enough fosters. So please if you can open up your hearts & open up your homes. You can save two lives like these two dogs. I don't care whether you Foster for the shelter or a rescue I'm begging. Dogs don't deserve to lose their life because of selfish inconsiderate a-hole dump them on the street.
