Our Lost and Found Animals

Call 406-873-2288 24/7
406-391-2273 ACO on duty or email us at cutbankanimalshelter@hotmail.com. We will put the information on our websites, in the local papers and over the radio station for others to read and hear. A safe reunion between friend and family is our goal. The sooner your missing friend is listed;
the faster we can look for results.

Did Fido slip his leash, or did Fluffy streak out the door as you opened it? Did you take in a hungry stray who's searching for his home? If you've lost or found a pet, use the link below to send us the information and we'll post it here on our Web site. (Please remember to be very specific about the location where your pet was lost or where you found someone's pet, i.e. street address, etc.)

You may also want to check the photos and descriptions of Adopt Me animals by Cut Bank Animal Shelter. Scroll down the document page. This page is updated as an animal enters and leaves the shelter so keep checking! Please email a photo and description of your missing animal, so that we may add your pet to our website.

Thousands of animals were saved, moved to shelters, and then were moved on into other safe havens around the United States. Their purpose is rescue, not reunion, but they might help if you appeal to them.

PET HARBOR
http://www.petharbor.com/
PetHarbor provides Lost and Found Services for the public as well as Adoption options from shelters and rescue groups. Its goal is to help animals find their way to their new or past homes. The site is a little difficult to decipher at first. Unlike petfinder, it provides no individual page URL's. It provides shelter listings by localities and options for persons who have lost and who have found pets. Once a dog gets an ID number, it can be searched for by that number. Because of its hourly updates, I would check Pet Harbor before checking Petfinder.


PET HUNTERS INTERNATIONAL

Maintains a national listing of certified pet detectives who offer lost pet services Some resouces have MAR (missing animal response) cat detection dogs and/or MAR trailing dogs trained to track the scent trail of lost dogs while others offer consultations.


PETFINDER.COM
http://www.petfinder.com/classifieds/classifiedhop.html
This breaks down to: Pets Found; Lost Pets; and Adoptable Pets (People also list pets here that they find as strays as an alternative to taking them to the shelter.)
These dogs are issued an ID and a verbal description is posted. In a recent effort to find a listing, I was frustrated by not finding a means to search by ID number and not finding that ID number in the state in which it should have been.

http://www.petfinder.com
This Petfinder site used by shelters and rescue groups to post adoptable dogs. Many strays not claimed by their families end up being posted for adoption at Petfinder. This site should be checked routinely when searching for any missing dog! Click on "Pet Search" (as if you were looking to adopt a dog of a certain breed) and you can see photos of various available dogs. It would be great if someone had the time to simply research posts to the Amber Alert list and cross check them to the Petfinder website-- even up to two weeks after a missing dog is posted. They might just find lost dogs listed for adoption on this site! :)
