Brown and white border collie mix lost near Main Street
Description
I lost my dog, a medium-sized brown and white border collie mix, yesterday around 3pm near the Walmart on West Main Street in Dothan. He’s about 40 pounds, with a brown patch over his left eye and a white blaze down his nose, and he wears a red nylon collar with a small brass tag that reads Milo. He has a tiny star-shaped white patch on his chest and one ear that flops when he runs. He’s usually friendly, but can be wary of strangers until he relaxes. It means a lot to me—he’s a rescue and has sentimental value, and I’m really hoping to bring him home safely if you’ve seen him.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
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.
