Lost & Found — help beach dogs get home

Lost your dog at the beach — or spotted one on its own? Post a report and the community keeps watch: sightings attach to lost reports, reporters can pin the exact last-seen spot from their phone, and a private email relay connects finders with owners without sharing anyone’s contact info publicly.

Beach etiquette — the five golden rules

  1. 1

    Know before you go — posted signs have the final say

  2. 2

    Leash up by default; off-leash only where allowed

  3. 3

    Scoop every single time — the tide is not a flush

  4. 4

    Give shorebirds and seals plenty of room

  5. 5

    Leave the beach better than you found it
