Description
I lost two dog leashes this evening while walking my rescue dog along the Provo River Trail. Around 5:15 PM, I was heading from the Provo Library toward Center Street, near the river overlook by Bicentennial Park, when I must have dropped them. They’re both nylon leashes; one is solid black and the other is charcoal with a red, slightly frayed grip near the clip. My dog is anxious without them, and I’m worried about the cold tonight. If you’ve seen them around the Provo/Orem area, please keep an eye out by the Provo Library entrance or near the City Center.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
