Lost: Puppies near Marquette Harbor Light
Description
I was walking my two puppies along the Presque Isle Park loop by the Marquette Harbor Light at 7:15 PM yesterday when a gust swept them into the brush. They slipped from the leash and vanished into the trees, and my heart plummeted as the lake wind carried their tiny barks away. They’re small and friendly—one is mostly black with a white chest, the other tan with a stubby tail—and both wear little collars. I’ve searched the trails, the busy waterfront, and the parking areas, but I keep coming up empty. If you see two little wanderers around Marquette, please help me bring them home.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting

- 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.

- 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

- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
