Lost pet — how to find them fast

A fast, practical plan for finding a lost pet, plus the shelters and microchip registries to contact.

When a pet goes missing in Bend, speed and visibility are everything. Most lost pets are found close to home within the first day.

  1. Search the immediate area. Check nearby gardens, sheds, and quiet spots. Bring treats and a familiar item, and call calmly.
  2. Alert the microchip registry. Flag your pet as missing with the microchip database so your details are current if they're scanned.
  3. Call local shelters and vets. Phone shelters, pounds, and veterinary practices around Bend and ask them to note your pet's description.
  4. Post online and on lost-pet databases. Share clear photos in local community groups and lost-pet services.
  5. Put up visible notices. A simple poster with a photo, the area, and a contact number still works.
  6. Post a listing. Add a lost-pet listing for Bend so found-pet reports nearby surface alongside yours.

Gray dwarf rabbit with white chest, lost near Old Mill

I lost my gray dwarf rabbit named Noodle yesterday around 3pm. He's a tiny fluffy guy, about the size of a guinea pig, with a small white patch on his chest and one ear that tilts a bit to the right. We were along the Deschutes River Trail by the Old Mill District when he bolted from his carrier and disappeared into a hedge near the coffee kiosk. Noodle is basically a member of my family—this little guy means a lot to me, and I’m really worried about him. If you spot him near Brooks Street or along the river path, I’d be grateful for any help.

Black and white border collie mix with red collar

I’m posting because I lost my dog yesterday around 6:15pm near the Old Mill District along Deschutes Ave. He’s a medium-sized black and white border collie mix, about 45 pounds, with a bright red collar and a blue glow-in-the-dark tag. He also has a tiny white tuft on his left ear. He’s microchipped and generally friendly, but can be shy around strangers and might bolt toward other dogs. Last seen with a squeaky rubber toy in his mouth near the river trail by the Old Mill. This dog means the world to me and I’m really hoping he’s found soon; there’s a gentle reward if he’s returned safely.
