Red reflective dog harness with paw-print patch

I lost my red reflective dog harness yesterday around 3pm near the Walmart on 10th Street in Scottsbluff. It's a medium Ruffwear-style harness, bright red with a white paw-print patch on the chest strap and a small blue LED light clip on the back. There's a blue nylon leash still attached, and a tiny tear near the Velcro that makes it a bit snag-prone. It means a lot to me; we've had it since adopting our dog, and I really need to get it back.

Brown and white beagle mix dog, lost near Walmart Scottsbluff

I lost my dog yesterday around 6pm near Walmart in Scottsbluff. He's a brown and white beagle mix, about 22 pounds, with a blue collar and a small dent in his left ear. We had just finished a walk near 27th Street when he slipped away and headed toward the parking lot. He's friendly but a bit anxious around strangers and he loves treats. If found, please call or text the number on his collar; the tag has my contact info. He's part of our family and I'd be forever grateful to have him back safe.

Gray tabby cat with green collar, missing

I lost my gray tabby cat Milo yesterday around 3pm. He's a short-haired cat with a light gray coat, white paws, and a bright green collar with a small silver bell. He also has a tiny white chest spot and a barely noticeable nick above his left ear. I last saw him near the Safeway on 10th Street in Scottsbluff, near the Panhandle area, and I worry he wandered toward Panhandle Park. Milo is shy with strangers but incredibly affectionate once he knows you; he’s neutered and up to date on vaccines. If anyone spots him, reach out to me at [email protected]. I’d really appreciate bringing him home.

Brown and white beagle with red collar

I lost my dog yesterday around 3pm near the Scottsbluff Public Library on Broadway. He bolted after a squirrel and slipped out of his red collar; I haven't seen him since. He's a tan and white beagle mix, about 25 pounds, with a small white chest patch and a tiny scar behind his right ear, and he wears a blue nylon collar with a brass tag that says 'Milo' and my number. I'm really worried—this dog is my constant buddy and I can't stop thinking about him. If anyone spots him, please text or call; I’d be forever grateful to bring him home.
