Question
My dog left home last week.  He was in heat. There were several other dogs in the neighborhood he often played with and now there is no sign of the other dogs nor my dog. I noticed that he wouldn't eating like he usually do, he was more concerned with getting out of the gate in our yard.  He would leave but would return.  This time he hasn't.  He was so spoiled, I just can't believe he would just run off like this.  He has tags but we removed them recently only to buy a bigger one that would not seem to choke him.  He's big dog and the collar was a getting little too small, then he runs off.  I guess I will never find him now.  I pray that he's unharmed and God leads him back home.  I miss him so much!

Answer
Well,keep on checking with animal control as well as rescues,and put up posters,a well meaning person may have found him,also put food down and go door to door

Just pray he isn't one of the thousands that are stolen for puppy mills or for Vivisection in a lab

If you do find him,it'll be a good idea to get him neautured,as it will reduce his wandering as well as prevent more unwanted dogs from being born and end up being killed in a shelter
