About this title

From the Publisher:

Every 5 seconds another pet is lost or stolen. This book aims to change that!

Animal shelters take in between 8 and 10 million animals each year. It is estimated that only 4% or stray cats and 14% of stray dogs are reclaimed by their owners. In an effort to do something about these alarming statistics, Joseph Andrew Sapia and his sister Patricia have teamed up to write The Complete Guide to Lost Pet Prevention and Recovery. In their book (which The Humane Society of the United States has called "a must-read for everyone who is concerned about the ultimate safety of pet animals"), the Sapias show owners of dogs, cats, bird, ferrets, and other critters how to prevent their pets from becoming lost or stolen, what to do if their pets turn up missing, and what to do if they find a stray (which is likely to be someone else's lost pet).

From the Author:

If you've ever had a pet turn up missing, you know the feelings of fear and panic. We have each experienced first-hand the sense of helplessness that comes with having a pet go missing. We have also felt the grief and remorse when a lost pet is never found. We have decided to do somehting about it--not only for ourselves, but also for the millions of other pet-loving people.

The Complete Guide to Lost Pet Prevention and Recovery contains a wealth of information that will prove invaluable in helping readers prevent their pets from becoming lost or stolen in the first place. In addition, if their pets do go missing, this book will guide readers through all the steps necessary to a successful recovery. The Complete Guide to Lost Pet Prevention and Recovery also provides helpful advice to good Samaritans who take in strays and want to help find the rightful owners.
