Terrier Reported Missing in Calverton

A Tibetan Terrier was reported missing in Calverton on Thursday night.

Brandy, a 9-year-old white and caramel-colored female, was last seen near Rose Court and Karlin Drive in Calverton, according to a notice on homeagain.com, a pet recovery database.

Brandy is not wearing a collar and weighs about 30 pounds, according to the notice, though she is microchipped. If found, call 1-888-HOMEAGAIN.

Here are some tips from Home Again when spotting a lost pet:

• Assess the situation carefully. If you feel safe, slowly approach the lost cat or dog.

• If the lost pet is aggressive or otherwise unstable, call  or animal control for help.

• If you feel safe approaching the pet and it is wearing a collar with ID tags, check for information about the owner and let them know you found their lost pet.

• If the pet is not wearing visible identification but you are able to safely approach the pet, take it to the nearest animal shelter or veterinary clinic to be scanned for a microchip.

• If you are unable to approach the pet or determine the pet's owner, contact your local animal control agency. Animal control can scan the pet for a microchip and get the pet off of the streets, so it doesn't get injured.
