Your pet’s nose may be the key to getting them home.

A lost pet’s sense of smell is incredibly powerful. By creating scent trails with unwashed items that smell like you and your home, you may help guide them back.

✔️ Use unwashed clothing, towels, bedding, and your pet’s bedding or litterbox.

✔️ Place scent items from the lost location toward your home using the “wagon wheel” method.

✔️ Keep fresh water and bedding outside where you can monitor the area with a camera.

Every lost pet situation is different, but scenting is a simple, safe technique that can make a difference.
