While driving one day, I noticed a sign on a telephone pole that was barely
legible. It was streaked from the previous night's rain and the top part
of the page was folded over because the tacks had come loose. I made out
the word FOUND, and Terrier, and I could see a phone number on the bottom
of the page. I wondered how long the sign would stay up there and whether
another night's rain would make it totally impossible to read. I also
wondered if this pet would ever be reunited with its owner again.
That's when it hit me that there should be an easier and faster way to
find a pet. Losing a pet can be a very frightening experience, just as
finding a pet can leave you feeling helpless as to what to do.
This site was developed to aid and assist those who have lost a pet, and
those who have found a pet, by creating a system that matches lost pets
with their owners as quickly and with as little stress and anxiety as
possible.
We hope you find our site useful!
