We have a small, dedicated team of volunteers who assist with the social media page and many supporters who help in various ways with the group.<\/p>\n<p>Our active community of Dumfries and Galloway are incredibly supportive and help with shares as well as reporting and locating lost dogs (or any pet) quickly. Our volunteers are all dog lovers, and owners, with several who have also experienced the distress of losing a dog at some point.<\/p>\n<p>We have access to the equipment which can help in our searches, which includes wildlife trail cameras, live wi-fi cameras as well as night vision, thermal imaging cameras and humane traps.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-19980 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/job-manager-uploads\/main_image\/2020\/10\/pngegg-9-214x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"101\" height=\"142\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/job-manager-uploads\/main_image\/2020\/10\/pngegg-9-214x300.png 214w, https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/job-manager-uploads\/main_image\/2020\/10\/pngegg-9-300x421.png 300w, https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/job-manager-uploads\/main_image\/2020\/10\/pngegg-9-730x1024.png 730w, https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/job-manager-uploads\/main_image\/2020\/10\/pngegg-9-768x1078.png 768w, https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/job-manager-uploads\/main_image\/2020\/10\/pngegg-9-450x631.png 450w, https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/job-manager-uploads\/main_image\/2020\/10\/pngegg-9-570x800.png 570w, https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/job-manager-uploads\/main_image\/2020\/10\/pngegg-9-14x20.png 14w, https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/job-manager-uploads\/main_image\/2020\/10\/pngegg-9-400x561.png 400w, https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/job-manager-uploads\/main_image\/2020\/10\/pngegg-9.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 101px) 100vw, 101px\" \/>In 2020 we launched our website, which helps those in the local area pinpoint a lost dogs last known location (using our lost dog locator). The lost dog locator also provides you with a clear picture of roads, water, and dangers from surrounding the areas thanks to the level of zoom, satellite and street-view abilities. Once a dog is successfully reunited we will update this section with the good news.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>We offer a free service and do not ask for any costs towards helping reunite you with your pet. Any donations, however, are welcomed and very much appreciated \u2013 however, please be reassured that there is no fees for our services.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About Lost Dogs Dumfries &#038; Galloway<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":19914,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/20087"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20087"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/20087\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20127,"href":"https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/20087\/revisions\/20127"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19914"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dglostdogs.co.uk\/welcome\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20087"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
