KEEP YOUR CANINE SAFE

Doglost, the UK’S biggest dog-rescue community, has the following advice ■

Don’t leave your dog locked in a car or van, or tied up outside a shop.

Never leave your dog in the garden on its own.

Keep good quality, up-to-date photographs in case your dog goes missing. Capture all angles and any distinguishing marks.

Make sure your dog is microchipped and that your details are registered and kept up-to-date.

Beware of social media – don’t post specifics of your dog’s location online.

Always keep your dog in sight and, if a stranger approaches, put it on a lead and walk near others.

Don’t let your children walk the dog alone.

Be vigilant, pay attention and don’t get distracted by your phone.

Always report attempted thefts and suspicious incidents to the police.
