Lost and found: What are the chances?

I have never experienced the trauma of losing a dog. Yet.

There are, of course, a lot of other people who are not so lucky. The ASPCA did a study of more than 1000 households to find out more about these "Lost and Found" incidents. One interesting finding was that more than 90% of the dogs which were reported lost were re-united again with their families. This compares favorably to just about 75% recovery for lost cats.

Have you ever experienced losing your dog? And did you get it back again? Please share your experiences.
