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 Lubbock, 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 Lubbock 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 Lubbock so found-pet reports nearby surface alongside yours.

Leopard gecko, orange-spotted, in glass terrarium

I lost my leopard gecko, Mochi, yesterday around 6pm. He is about 4 inches long, pale yellow with bright orange spots, and his tail is a bit chunky from eating well. He lives in a 10-gallon Exo Terra glass terrarium with a blue heat lamp and a cork bark hide, and he has a small white dot on the tip of his tail and a faint scar on the top of his snout. I last saw him outside the Texas Tech University Student Union Building by the big oak on 4th Street and University Ave, and he could have wandered toward the grassy areas behind the library. Mochi means a lot to me, and I am really hoping someone can help bring him back.

Lost blue dog leash with white paw prints near Urbanovsky Park in Lubbock, Texas.

I lost my blue dog leash with white paw prints while taking my golden retriever for a walk in Lubbock near Urbanovsky Park. I think it may have fallen off when I stopped to let him play in some bushes. If anyone finds it, I would really appreciate getting it back as it’s quite special to me!

I lost my adorable guinea pig yesterday in the park near Lubbock High School. She is mostly white with brown patches and was last seen running around near the flower beds. She's very friendly and loves to munch on carrots. If anyone finds her, please let me know; I’m really worried about her!
