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

When a pet goes missing in College Station, 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 College Station 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.

  6. Post a listing. Add a lost-pet listing for College Station so found-pet reports nearby surface alongside yours.

Leopard gecko, small green with orange spots, lost near TAMU

I lost my leopard gecko yesterday around 3pm on George Bush Drive near the West Campus Library. It's a small 6-inch gecko, lime green with bright orange spots along its back and a pale yellow belly, with a tiny scar behind its left eye from a shed. It lives in a 6x8 inch glass terrarium with a black lid and a small heat mat, and there's a blue ID sticker on the tank that reads Rex. This gecko means a lot to my family—it's my son's first pet—and I’d be forever grateful if someone spotted it wandering near campus or turned it in at the Lost & Found in Bryan/College Station.

Beagle-mix dog with blue harness and heart patch

I lost my beagle-mix, Niko, yesterday around 3pm. We were near Wellborn Rd and George Bush Drive by the TAMU library quad when he bolted after a cyclist and wandered off. He's about 35 pounds, tan and white with a black saddle, and he wears a blue nylon harness with a red name tag that says 'Niko'. There's a small white heart-shaped patch on his chest and a tiny scar on his left hind leg from a past scrape. I'm really worried—he's part of the family and has sentimental value. If anyone finds him, please contact me here or text the number on his tag; a reward is offered.

Black Lab mix, 2-year-old, missing near University Dr

I lost my black Lab mix yesterday around 3pm near the CVS on University Dr in College Station. He’s about 60 pounds, with a shiny black coat and a white patch on his chest, and one ear that flops a bit. He’s wearing a red nylon collar with a small blue ID tag that says 'Max,' plus he has a microchip under his skin. He’s shy with strangers at first but super friendly once he warms up. This dog means the world to us—he’s part of the family and has sentimental value; please help if you’ve seen him.
