Golden retriever mix with red collar and blue tag
Description
I lost my golden retriever mix yesterday around 3pm near Western Kentucky University’s Downing Student Union on University Boulevard in Bowling Green. He’s a medium-sized dog, about 60 pounds, with a light golden coat and a white heart-shaped patch on his chest. He wears a bright red nylon collar and a blue bone-shaped ID tag. He has a small notch on his left ear and a barely visible scar above his right eyebrow—little features that help him stand out. He’s friendly and good with people, and he means the world to me; I really need him back. If you’ve seen him, email me at [email protected].

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.
