Tan beagle mix with orange collar, lost near Bridge Street
Description
I am missing my dog, Scout. He is a tan beagle mix about 25 pounds, with a white chest and a small crescent scar above his left ear. He is wearing a bright orange collar with a tag that has my number on it. I last saw him yesterday around 3pm near Bridge Street Town Centre in Huntsville; he bolted when a jogger passed, and I couldn't catch him. He is friendly but a little skittish with strangers, and this is really stressful for me—he is not just a pet, he is family and has sentimental value. If anyone finds him, please text me or email me; I am really hoping to bring him home safely.

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

- 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.
