Blue reflective dog harness with lime paw tag

I lost my blue reflective dog harness from the Ruffwear Front Range line yesterday around 3pm. It was last seen at the dog park near Main Street Park in Northeast SD, around the corner of Main Street and 7th Ave NE, close to the Northeast SD Public Library. The harness is medium, blue with black trim, and it has a lime-green paw-print tag with Mika's name and a tiny QR code, plus a neon reflective strip along the chest strap. It's special to me because it helps keep him safe during walks and it was a gift from a friend, so I’d really like to get it back. If anyone found it, please drop me a message here — I’d be forever grateful.

Bearded dragon, orange-tan with blue markings

I lost my bearded dragon, Ember, yesterday around 3pm near the Aberdeen Main Street Farmers Market by the Aberdeen Public Library on Main Street in Northeast SD. Ember is about 8 inches long from head to tail, orange-tan with bright blue markings on his legs and a small pale blue spot at the tip of his tail. He also has a tiny crescent-shaped scar above his left eyebrow. He lives in a 20-gallon tank with a red heat lamp and a fake palm plant—he's usually calm and curious. This little guy is really special to me; my sister gave him to me last year, and I’m worried I won’t see him again. If anyone found him, please drop a note in the app so I can get him back.

Yellow cockatiel with orange cheeks

I'm Priya Patel, and I've misplaced my yellow cockatiel, Sunny. He's a lively little bird with a bright yellow body, gray wings, and orange cheek patches. He wears a green leg band with the code C38, and a small blue tail feather sticks out when he's excited. I last saw him yesterday around 3pm near the Coffee Corner on Market Street in downtown Aberdeen, in Northeast SD. Sunny means the world to me; he's been part of the family for three years, and I'm really hoping to get him back.

Golden Syrian hamster with white belly, missing

I lost my golden Syrian hamster yesterday around 3pm. He’s a tiny fluffball, about 2 inches long, with golden-brown fur and a white belly, plus a faint white stripe along his right shoulder. He also has a small nick on his left ear and a pink nose that shows when he peeks out of his hiding spot. I think he squeezed out during me cleaning near Main Street and 2nd Ave SE in downtown Aberdeen, Northeast SD. He’s been part of the family for years, and I’m really worried and hoping to get him back safe.
