An “Amber Alert” for your dog!!

There is little more distressing to a dog owner than your dog going missing and few ways to get information out about the missing pooch make it even more frustrating. However thanks to Stryker Lampe, the website creator of Dognamic.com, online dog Amber Alerts are now available. Lampe has great sympathy for those who have lost a dog and feels this way,”I wanted to come up with a system that was able, simple and completely free that allowed people that if their dog became missing, they would be able to help each other maybe in the search and try to find the lost animal,” Lampe said.

However, Dognamic.com is not just a site to help locate a lost dog..it is much much more. First of all, it is free and its line on the webpage states that Dognamic is the most advanced FREE social network for dogs and their owners. So what can you do on a social network for dogs? It is a place where dog owner and dog care takers from all over the world can communicate about anything dog related. They can share training ideas, dog food recipes, discuss dog behavioral issues, share pictures and anything else that they might want to talk about.

Now how does that Amber Alert work? Very simply, according to Lampe. As a member of the site you can create a profile for one or more of your dogs. You can create a Vflyer (Virtual Flyer) that will members can view and print out in an attempt to help locate the dog. The profile of the dog can go into the “Missing Mode” and for a specific mileage radius, people within that mode will be notified via a ticker tape device on the site that a dog in their area has gone missing.

In addition to this great new site that helps locate missing dogs, refer to a prior entry, where I discussed gadgets to help you speak and keep track of your dog.
