Research from Drone To Home Regarding Dog Behaviour When Missing.

Why won’t your missing dog come to you straight away?

During the search for a missing dog, owners are often advised not to shout, chase, or run towards their dog. This advice can be met with disbelief: “My dog always listens and will come back if they hear me.” While this may be true under normal circumstances, a missing dog doesn't respond the same way.

Understanding Survival Mode.

It's crucial not to humanise the situation. You're not looking for *your* missing dog; you're looking for *a dog that is missing*. This shift in thought is not a reflection of any owner or their bond with their dog; it's about the dog's current state of mind.

When a dog enters survival mode, their priorities shift to survival, food, water, and shelter. In this state, every human, even their owner, is perceived as a potential threat. This isn’t the fault of the owner or the dog—it's simply a missing dog trying to survive.

The feral state can kick in almost immediately but can take upto 6 weeks. Dogs experience various layers of the feral state, and it's definitely not one-size-fits-all. It's not about breed either.
We've seen thousands of dogs, both from the same breed and different breeds, act in similar ways. This behaviour is more primeval to the canine family than to an individual feral dog.

The Role of Scent in Reuniting with Your Dog.

Our research shows that a dog's brain responds more strongly to the scent of familiar humans than to other scents. Your missing dog will be trying to find you by scent rather than by sound or sight. Your scent carries upto 3 miles depending on various factors like weather, wind etc.

While it might be instinctive to organise a search party, it’s often wiser to wait. Allow your dog the chance to find you without being scared off by unfamiliar scents and people.

Avoiding Unintended Consequences.

Strangers calling your dog by name or whistling can actually push your dog further away. The missing dog hears a noise, sees it as a threat, and moves on, causing the search to restart. This includes searching with other dogs, even ones the lost dog knows.

As an owner, walking around the area where your dog was last seen is key. This will help your missing dog track back to you. Please remain calm.

Stay Patient and Positive.

Ask experienced people for advice on finding and reuniting with your dog. While many on social media have good intentions, they may not have first-hand experience with missing dogs. Don’t believe everything you read online.

Thank you.

I have a question: are more familiar scents better than few? Example: our dog is super close to my in-laws. Would 4 scents (no shouting, totally get that) be better than 2, or would that just add to the confusion?

This may sound like a stupid question but I’m gonna ask anyway..! At what point does this advice kick in? Scenario: on a walk in large woods, with dog that usually has a very good recall. Has disappeared, but due to size of woods you know they are gonna be in here somewhere. For how long do you call them? At which point in time do you view them as missing, and stop calling them…?

Agree with the practical approach, not so sure about the interpretation of what's going on in a dog's mind. I've seen first hand they can be in a 'detached' state and do not respond to familiar people but that's all we need to understand.

Fabulous advice, you do an amazing service. Are you a charity as I would be happy to give a donation ❤️

12 years ago, my hound went outside at 5:30am, spotted a deer and took off while I helplessly watched. I gave it a few minutes then started wandering around calling her. As I made my circles in the neighborhood larger, I finally came across her an hour later. She was in the middle of a road (about 1 mile away), simply turning in circles. It took her a couple moments to react from when she first spotted me but when she figured out who I was, she ran right over. We were lucky it was a Sunday morning and there was no one out that early. My parent's house - a house she had been visiting for 6 years and stayed in for weeks at a time - was the next house over from where I found her yet she had no idea where she was or what to do. I did not understand this behavior until I started learning more about how dogs behave when missing. Thank you for the education you provide!

Great advice, hope I never need it 🤗

Fantastic advice and service 💯 Thank you so much for all your outstanding work and dedicated volunteers ❤️

What brilliant advice. Hope people will take heed of it. Thank you so much👍👍👍🥰🥰🥰

Sharing for all dog Lovers. Well worth taking the time to read, Thank You

wow...what fabby advice. I am owned by 2 beauties with 2 different mind sets. . A Jack Russell who sees an open gate and has travelled 5 miles in 2 minutes (hes my escape artist) and a Boxer who wont go off the drive unless shes walked lol. so I need all the help I can get with my little adventurer 🤣🤣🤣

We have sibling Golden Retrievers Martha and Miles and Miles is such a Mummy’s boy he literally follows me everywhere..it’s one of my worst fears either of them getting lost 😢

Our first dog went AWOL twice - first time he accompanied the postman on his round, second he went up a drive a few doors away - they closed the gate to keep him in. Both did not read his tag which had numbers and address! I have found and returned wandering dogs five times! Like is said don't chase or shout etc. but a smile and a biscuit and a spare lead in the car did the trick. Two had no collar or tag so they went to the Police station (don't think you can do that now)

Excellent advice..it actually is hard to believe your dog after being lost won’t rush to you once they see you..but it does make sense when you learn about it..all about survival mode..

Very informative, thank you. I'll share . 😊

That's really interesting information. Thank you for sharing.
