Find Toto!

A brother sister duo from Brentwood created FindToTo.com. This brainchild was born when one of the website creator's own pets went missing. After posting fliers, hitting the pavement and the telephone he could only reach about four people.

All pet owners know that these furry guys are like our children, so it can be really scary when they get lost and there seems to be no one to help. FindToTo.com has helped pet owners find their pets within hours and one case, in minutes!

For a fee, pet owners can sign up to have FindToto.com target homes within a certain radius of where the lost pet was last seen. Then, hundreds of phone calls are sent out with a description of the pet and contact information. The cost depends on how big a radius an owners wants--from the 250 nearest homes to up to 5,000 houses. Prices start at $60 and go up to $500.

Walk 1,400 Miles In These Puppy's Shoes... Could You?

Kobe the Amazing Terrier... or dare I say "Terror" has finally been brought back to his native California home this week after having gone on an incredible 1,400 mile journey into Texas.
He went missing last month, and his family assumed he'd disappeared for good. That was until a stranger in Denton, Texas found him and brought him to a vet where they found his owner's information stored in a microchip implanted in his neck.
According to the company who manufactures the chips, an average of 1,200 stray animals a day are returned to their homes.
They've placed their implants in almost 2 million cats and dogs in America to date.
