Our preference is that finders take a dog to the local shelter if they cannot hold and search for the owner because that is where the owner is most likely looking.
We provide the names of rescues only to help lost dogs get back home. Owners should check dogs up for adoption from rescues as part of their search. Finders may want to contact a rescue to hold a pet and help with the search for the owner. Not all rescues take in “strays” and not all rescues will follow all necessary steps to find an owner so finders should be careful when considering this.
I am Kraig Wharton, a wildlife conservationist and a television personality. I am 30 years old. I was born and raised in the small town of Marion, Alabama. I have always had a love and respect for nature, which led me to pursue a career in wildlife conservation.
I have been very fortunate to have had the opportunity to travel all over the world, working with some of the most endangered species on the planet. My work has taken me to some of the most remote and dangerous places on earth, including war-torn countries such as Iraq and Afghanistan.
I am passionate about educating people about the importance of conserving our natural resources, and I am committed to doing whatever it takes to protect our planet for future generations.
