Summit Lost Pet Rescue is an animal protection and welfare organization devoted to finding lost pets in Summit County Colorado and reuniting them with their owners. They are 100% donation based and donations go directly toward resources and supplies to help find lost pets. Summary of Services Educate the community about how to avoid losing or becoming separated from their pets. Educate the community about what steps to take once they have lost their pet(s). Educate the community about what to do/what not to do when spotting lost or stray pets. Once a pet has been deemed to have been “lost” the charity will communicate with the owner to share calming signals techniques and gather information on the lost pet.  If the pet is lost in Summit County, then we organize a team of volunteers to: hang signs, create flyers, purchase bait food and set traps, set out comfort stations & pet-beds, set up game-cameras, as well as organize search parties to look for lost pets.   If the pet is lost outside of Summit County, then we can consult remotely via phone, text or facebook messenger with the owners. Post lost pets to various social media along with updates and what to do/not do to help locate lost pets. Maintain internet website as well as social media sites to educate and inform the public.     STEPS TO FOLLOW IF YOUR PET WENT MISSING:         CALL SUMMIT ANIMAL CONTROL TO REPORT LOST- 970-668-8600 CALL SUMMIT SHELTER TO REPORT LOST- 970-668-3230 CALL SUMMIT LOST PET RESCUE- 970-423-5701 COMFORT/SCENT STATIONS- PLACE OUT OWNER’S DIRTY CLOTHES ASAP IN AREA WHERE DOG WAS LAST SEEN (THEY CAN SMELL FOR MILES, SO THESE SCENTS CAN HELP DRAW THEM BACK).
