  • Contact your local municipality for instructions on what to do with the animal.

  • Be cautious when approaching the stray animal.

  • Be careful about bringing the animal into your home, especially if you have your own animals.

  • If the animal has ID tags, contact the owner directly.

  • Bring the dog to any veterinary office to get scanned for a microchip (this is a free service)
