OWINGS MILLS: IS THIS YOUR DOG

Hello I found this dog near richmar apartments with no collar and no tags. She is about a year old. Very sweet and well trained. I need to find her owner if anyone has any info please call me 4432559122 if I can not find a home for her for the night I will have to call animal control and I do not want to do that

We know how much you love your Patch Pet, even his mischievous side. On those days that he feels especially rascally, he can sometimes get into trouble.

Whether a snowstorm builds the perfect escape ramp over the fence in your backyard, or your pup gives you the slip through a loose leash, Patch Pets are constantly getting themselves lost.

Don’t worry! They’re getting themselves found, too.

The American Pet Products Association estimates that Americans own 70 to 80 million dogs and 74 to 96 million cats. That’s a lot of furry friends to keep track off.

And according to the ASPCA, about 649,000 animals who are brought to shelters as strays are returned to their owners each year. We can help raise that number by ensuring our Patch Pets make it home safe.
