Detective agency finds missing pets

Forty-three percent of us own dogs and 37 percent own cats. We spend $38 billion a year on pets. They're part of our families, and when they're missing, it's a big deal.

Sniffing out a missing pet takes on a whole new meaning with a team of detectives. They can track their targets down without computers and lab work.

With a background as a private investigator and rescue worker, Karin Goin uses regular dogs that she trains rigorously to find missing pets.

"This is the guy who started it all. Cade was the first one I trained to be a pet detection dog,” the pet detective said. "We do a lot of CSI type work. It's an investigative process as well as a search process."

These dogs perform the same functions as search and rescue dogs, but they look for cats and dogs, not missing people. They make headlines wherever they go. It's hard to tell who's having more fun. But Goin is very up front about who the credit should go to.

"(The dogs) are at least 85 percent of the investigation,” she said. “We are on the dumb end of the leash. We basically follow behind."

If your pet is missing put up posters with a large picture of the pet. Do your own detective work by asking neighbors and check with your vet to see if the pet has a rabies tag.

Pet detective work can cost between $1,500 and $2,400 if travel is required. This service is available throughout the entire United States and Canada.

Like Oscar Wilde said "Truth mirrors fiction" (e.g. "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective" & "Legally Blonde 2") :lol:
