How can I report a lost pet?

Lost or Stray Animals

Lost or Found an Animal?

Read below for some quick tips on how you can help lost or found pets reunite with their families. Cache Humane Society is an Adoption Center and Community Clinic. While we are happy to help in any way we can, we are unable to house lost pets at our facility. We will refer lost or stray animals to the appropriate animal control agency that can best help them reunite with their families. Cache Humane Society can not legally accept lost or stray animals until they have completed their mandatory impound period at a government facility.  

Petco Love Lost Can Help!

Cache Humane Society is a proud partner with Petco Love Lost. Our animals come from a variety of situations and we upload every animal we receive in hopes that their owners may be waiting for them. Petco Love Lost’s database includes pets reported by individuals as well as thousands of shelter pets across the country. Whether you have lost or found an animal, you can upload a picture of that pet to Petco Love Lost for free. That pet will be visible to everyone using the database, making reunions just a few steps away! 

Your Pet is Missing? Here's What To Do:

Step 1: First, visit Petco Love Lost to upload a photo of your pet and search their national lost and found pet database to find them. 

Step 2: Next, contact the local Animal Control for the area where you last saw your animal. 

Step 3: Reach out to neighbors or members of the community where you last saw your animal. Going door to door with flyers or a picture of your lost pet will alert those around you to keep their eyes open.

Step 4: Post on social media. Almost every city has a residents-run Facebook group, but some good places to start posting are: KSL Lost and Found PetsUtah Lost and FoundCache Valley Lost Pets, and Cache Valley 411

Found a Pet? Here's What To Do:

If you found a pet, following these steps can help reunite them with their owner.

Step 1: Contact Animal Control for the community where you found the animal.  Animal Control may already be helping the owner with their search.  They will also check ID and rabies tags on collars and scan found animals for a microchip.  Please refer to the table above for your local animal control offices.

Step 2: If Animal Control cannot locate an owner, they will transport the pet to a municipal facility like the Cache County Impound.  All stray dogs must be held at a government facility for a minimum of 5 days to give their families time to find them.  

Step 3: Visit Petco Love Lost to upload a photo of the pet and search their national lost and found pet database. Their owner may be looking for them and uploaded a photo too. 

Step 4: Post on social media that you found an animal can help reunite them. Almost every city has a resident-run Facebook group, but some good places to start posting are: KSL Lost and Found Pets, Utah Lost and Found, and Cache Valley Lost Pets.

Per Utah State Code 11-46-103 all stray and lost pets must be held at an Animal Control Facility for a minimum of 5 days to allow their families time to find them.  After the 5 day impound period, charitable adoption centers like Cache Humane Society can help find a new home for unclaimed pets.
