Today, I lost my dog while hiking. After searching the trails for an hour and a half, he was by the car. FML
Razi_tail tells us more.
I figured one of two things would happen: 1. He was in the same area we got separated or 2. He went back to the car. I chose to search the first option before getting a phone call that somebody found my dog. He has 3 ways to id him: dog park tag, name tag, and microchipped. It was the park tag that somebody had called on.

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Smart dog. S/he knows exactly where to go back to when you lost each other

Generally, they return to the last place they saw you. Apparently, he thinks that's your car. At least you know his little homing beacon works now :)

Why no leash? It seems irresponsible to let your dog roam free. It pisses me off when unleashed dogs come up to me.

I understand that. I wasn't worried about other people because I was the only one there at the time. I'm keeping his leash on from now on!

Hey, at least you found him, and you got some more exercise.

I learned my lesson after this incident! But yes, there are other dangers out there to beware of like black bears.

I read it the first time as "hit by a car" and got so sad. Glad to hear your dog is safe and sound :)
