Description
I found a purple nylon dog harness this afternoon around 3:15pm in front of Walgreens on West Michigan Ave, near the Kellogg Arena here in Battle Creek. It's a size medium, with a reflective silver stripe and a sturdy black quick-release buckle. A pink paw-print keychain is attached to the D-ring, and there’s a small scuff near the buckle from rubbing on a curb. I know this gear probably belongs to someone in Battle Creek, and I’d love to help reunite it with its owner—if this sounds like yours, describe the brand or the dog's name and we can arrange a meetup nearby.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
