Basic Search/Immediate Steps - General Tips 3
For dogs more than cats, your search manner and radius is more dependent on the factors listed previously. Dogs are likely to:
- Roam much farther from home with weather and terrain playing an obvious role in how far
- Be picked up and driven away by a Good Samaritan
For lost or displaced cats:
- Concentrate on an aggressive search of your immediate neighborhood
- Post missing flyers and posters in a 1- to 3-mile radius
