    Hi MPF Family!

    I would love to use this thread to share innovative ideas to help lost pets get home.  Are you trying something new?

    Example: Field officers putting up yard signs when they pick up a lost pet. @cameron moore, would you mind sharing the picture you have?


    Thank you!! ​

    Thanks, Bobby!! There are so many exciting things happening in this space. It would be awesome to start a collection of examples that everyone can use.

    Ironically I was just looking at this today! In addition to the photo of the yard sign I also included a great door hanger from @Shoshana Mostoller's organization.​

    If you haven’t heard of Pethub ID tags, check them out! They report that 98% of lost animals wearing their tags get home without entering thr shelter and 96% get home within the first hour of being lost.

    We have been giving them away for about 2 years now. We’ve handed out thousands of them to adopters, owners, etc. Not a single animals has entered our shelter with a PetHub ID tag…proof enough for me.

    If you give out swag at events, these make GREAT swag!

    @Shelly Simmons, CAWA  - you are spot on about Pet Hub!! Another really wonderful thing about this product is that they will price match what you currently pay for your license tags, which is totally amazing. They are branded and people really love them. My dog, Coal, got the very first one we issued in Sacramento and it's been several years, it still looks amazing and is totally legible.
