Making flyers
*We can help you make a flyer if needed*
Use bright colored or fluorescent card stock behind the flyer for high visibility. The flyer should note if the pet is a LOST DOG or LOST CAT. You should also put the words CALL IF SIGHTED on the flyer. Some pets will not come up to total strangers and it is important to get that sighting so you know your dog or cat is still safe.
Give a description of the pet and telephone numbers where you can be reached. It is good to leave a home number and a cell phone number. If possible, have someone stay at your home to monitor the phone or give a phone number for a friend or family member who can answer the calls for you.
You should put the flyers in plastic protective sleeves to protect them from the weather. It is best to have the opening of the sleeve at the bottom so that rain will not get in the sleeve. Be sure to staple the bottom or, if you use tape to attach the flyer, be sure and tape the bottom so the flyer cannot slip out. Staple all for corners to prevent flipping. If family and friends want to assist in helping you, having them hang flyers is the best way they can help!
