Looking through lots of counties, some of them do not have links to pages or have no dog shelter web presence at all.
I am just figuring out how to create a free fill in form. When I work out the bugs it will be free for anyone to copy.
Why would county shelters or humane offices trust some unknown person on the internet... hmmm
No need to trust an unknown. What I am doing can be done by your local high school classes. Just ask one of your high school teachers to look at the concept.
The forms and blogs are free on Google. I will lay out each field after I finish.
I created a google group if anyone has questions https://groups.google.com/g/pup-detectives
STANDARD DATA BASE
In this report form, the identity of the author is not seen by the public, but is used when the form is published to dog search organizations.
After all fields are selected they would be given a code, say DA01 would be the prefix of the lost or found field.
As missing information from all organizations or groups will be pasted a million times, the sequence would be organized for social media.
The app or web page authors would use the standard format.
(L)OST (F)OUND
( )
(D)OG (C)AT
(S)TATE
(C)OUNTY
(S)TREET ADDRESS MISSING FROM
================================
On entry of the street address, app would replace any directions .. west.. to w
spaces would be replaced with +
524 n Columbus street lancaster ohio
would become
https://www.google.com/maps/place/524+n+Columbus+street+ lancaster+ohio
By converting spaces to + and adding the above prefix, it becomes a link to the location on google maps
================================
(There are endless post from those who lost a dog or those sharing that post. Some times they give a street but that has meaning only to those who live in that area, some times the animal posted is counties or states away
1st line: Dog lost, county, state
2nd line address
3rd line photo
(P)ERSONALITY
(the visual info could have a series of pics to click on)
(C)OLORS
(B)REED
(G)ENDER
(S)HORT (L)ONG HAIR
TYPE (C)OAT
APPROXIMATE (H)EIGHT INCHES
APPROXIMATE WEIGHT POUNDS
TYPE (C)OLLAR
(L)ICENSE NUMBER #

=================
ONLY WHEN FILLING OUT FOR A SEARCH GROUP
so they could contact you
YOUR (N)AME
YOUR (P)HONE
Y)OUR (E)MAIL
YOUR (F)ACEBOOK
(Y)OUR STREET ADDRESS
You can send an email to a blog.. the reason the fields need to be posted in this sequence.
People who report a lost or found dog can send one email and it published to every place that collects lost n found dog reports.
524 n Columbus street lancaster ohio, would become
https://www.google.com/maps/place/524+n+Columbus+street+ lancaster+ohio
The app could load this google address or it could be clicked on.. then what
Ctrl Shift 1, street view appears,
, and the side info vanishes
The program could take a screen copy of the map or, you could move around, zoom in and then take a screen copy of the area to post in your email or social media post.
