Built from Albie's story

A calmer, clearer start when a pet goes missing.

When Albie ran, too much time vanished into calls, messages, and repeating the same details. Albie Alert was built to make those first hours simpler: one report, one owner account, one live case, and a cleaner handoff into local response.

Why it exists

Missing Pet Network UK is building practical tools for real-world lost pet cases.

The aim is simple: give owners a cleaner start, give responders better information, and reduce the time lost to repeating details across calls, posts, inboxes, and handovers.

For owners

Clear reporting, saved pet records, and one place to follow what happens next.

For search teams

Shared case context, better pet detail, and a cleaner operational view.

For local services

Quicker visibility for vets, dog wardens, rescues, and support organisations when time matters.

How the system works

A simple view of how the alert moves from owner report to local search support.

The public site starts the case, Track manages the owner side, the app supports people out on the ground, and the Organisation Portal gives verified local teams the shared operational view.

Public site

1. Owner starts here

Report a missing pet or register pets in advance.

Live case

2. Albie Alert opens

The owner account and live case are created together.

Track

3. Owner stays in control

Track manages pet records, updates, transfers, and owner-side case visibility.

App

4. Ground searchers use the app

Owners and searchers can follow live cases, submit sightings, and work from the same current status in the field.

Organisation Portal

5. Local teams work the case

Verified responders use the shared operational view, sightings, map context, and chip checks.

Owner journey

Starts the alert, enters the key details once, and then follows the case through Track and the app.

Ground search app

Supports the people actually out searching, reporting sightings, and working from live case status while they are in the field.

Portal journey

Lets verified organisations work from the same live case data rather than disconnected calls, screenshots, and posts.

Shared outcome

Better co-ordination, faster local awareness, and less time lost repeating the same information.

1

Owner launches the case

The missing-pet report creates the owner account and the live case with the key pet and last-seen details.

2

Portal teams pick up the case

Verified organisations can see the live case feed, richer pet detail, map context, sightings, and chip cross-reference tools.

3

Local search becomes more co-ordinated

Search teams, vets, wardens, and rescue partners work from shared updates rather than disconnected messages and social posts.

4

Owners still stay in control

The owner follows their own case through Track and the app, while the portal supports the professional and volunteer response around them.

In practice: The public site starts the alert, Track manages the owner's side, and the Organisation Portal supports the people helping to bring that pet home.

What the system does

One public journey, then proper working tools behind it.

The website is designed to do two jobs well: help owners act quickly, and hand them into the right next tool without asking them to start again.

Prepared owner records

Save one or more pet records before anything goes wrong so future alerts can start from real stored information.

Immediate live case creation

Launch the missing-pet journey quickly with the essentials, the owner account, and the live case tied together.

Owner portal continuity

Move into Track to manage pets, edit owner information, accept transfers, and raise alerts from saved profiles.

Organisation working view

Help local organisations work from more consistent case information instead of fragmented social posts and inbox trails.

Albie's story

This started because a real search should not feel so chaotic.

Albie is a Romanian rescue dog who panicked and ran not long after coming home. During the search, it became clear how much time was being spent trying to co-ordinate calls, messages, and updates between local volunteers, vets, dog wardens, and other helpers.

Albie Alert grew from that experience: a practical way to bring the right people together more quickly, so more time can be spent searching and less time can be spent repeating information.
