Found medium dog, tan coat with white chest
Description
I found a dog this afternoon around 4:15 pm in the Walmart parking lot on Main Street in Worthington, SW MN. He's a medium-sized mixed breed, about 40 pounds, with a short tan coat and a white patch on his chest plus white socks on his front paws. He wears a red nylon collar with a bone-shaped tag that reads 'Rex'. One ear tilts while the other stands, which makes him look extra curious. He seems healthy and friendly but a bit unsure after being on his own. I didn’t see a microchip while I checked quickly. If this is your dog, send me a note here and we can arrange reunification.

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.
