Good Pictures Make Better Lost Pet Flyers - Be Prepared

If your pet goes missing, you need to be prepared. Having good, clear pictures highlighting your pet's features is extremely important.

Pictures should show full face and body. Vertical shots work better than horizontal. If your pet is dark, be sure to take the picture on a light back ground. If your pet is light, the background should be dark.

Make sure to pay attention to lighting, clear focus, background color to highlight your pet's fur color. Pictures below are all very good examples of how to be prepared with a good photo of your pet if they should ever go missing.
