Searching for a missing pet in Hamilton
The Waikato River gullies act like highways for a bolting dog, and lifestyle blocks on the fringe are where found animals often turn up.
Start within 100 metres of where your pet was last seen, then widen out. Ask neighbours to physically open sheds, garages and under-house spaces — that single request finds more cats than any other step.
