If you find a lost pet in El Paso, there are a few steps you should take to help reunite the pet with its owner:

  1. Check for identification: Look for a collar and ID tags on the pet. If the pet has identification, contact the owner using the information provided on the tags.
  2. Check for a microchip: Take the pet to a local fire station in El Paso to have it scanned for a microchip. Many pet owners will have their pets microchipped, a small device implanted under the pet's skin containing their contact information. If the pet you found has a microchip, the fire department can scan it and contact the owner directly.
  3. Post a found pet report: Take a photo of the pet and post it on the Facebook page, Lost and Found Pets in El Paso, website lostandfoundpets.in, and other local groups, provide a detailed description of the pet, including the location and time it was found.
  4. Contact local shelters and veterinarians: Notify the local animal shelters and veterinarians in the area that you have found a lost pet. They may have been contacted by the owner and can help connect you with them.
  5. Keep the pet safe: Until the owner is located, ensure the pet is safe and comfortable. If the pet is injured or needs medical attention, take it to a veterinarian.
  6. Be patient: Finding a lost pet can take time, but with the community's help, the chances of reuniting the pet with its owner are much higher.

Following these steps increases the chances of finding the pet's owner and reuniting the pet with its family. It's also important to remember that the pet's safety is always a priority. Keep the pet safe, and do not give away the pet to anyone before you are sure you have contacted the pet's owner.
