Pippi, B&W dog

Pippi's LostMyDoggie Success Story
Kaylan Yerex
Lost: 7/4/10, Found: 7/7/10

This service was a life saver. Some people think these kind of things are just going to rip you off, but it helped loads on the search to find my dog Pippi.


On our search, we put the flier this service made us in hundreds and hundreds of mail boxes all over Prosser WA. We have been working so hard talking to every single person we saw on the street.

We got many calls from people who saw the flier, and had seen her around town. Eventually it got to the point where we were handing fliers to people who had gotten the recorded message AND seen the fliers in town.

The fliers and recordings lead us to the most amazing people of Prosser WA, who spent their own time driving up and down streets calling her name, and going door to door handing out fliers.

Finally though, after many nights of not sleeping, and a lot of money spent on fliers and business cards, she was found by the husband of a woman at the printing store.

This morning (July 7th - missing for 3 days) at 7am we went to get 500 fliers printed at the printing store in Prosser WA. The rest of the day until around 1:00 pm we drove around like every other day, puting fliers in windsheild wipers, on door steps, in mail boxes, talking to everyone we could, in every neighborhood in this town.

I got a call from my dad (in Canada) telling me "someone from somewhere you printed papers this morning has a small black and white dog, with a purple collar"

So, we rushed down to the print shop as fast as possible, and there she was... sitting there tired and dehydrated but so happy to see us.

I now love Prosser WA, and Lostmydoggie.com
