Lost pet or found pet. Let SunBird Patrol help you locate your lost dog. Lost dogs can travel quickly so it’s very important to notify the Patrol first. Your first call should be to the SunBird Patrol at 480-797-8605. Doing so will put the Patrol on the lookout for your pet and if someone happens to find your pet and call the Patrol, your pet can be returned to you. To help facilitate the search after your pet goes missing from your home, knock on your neighbors’ doors. Many happy reunions have occurred where dogs have been staying with a concerned neighbor just houses or blocks away. They are most likely looking for you, too. If you find a pet, the first thing you should do is call the SunBird Patrol. If we all work together we can get a lost pet back to its owner.
