The dogs rescued this weekend will be at the pound for seven days before they become available for adoption.

BOISE--It's considered the busiest day at the Humane Society, not just here, but all around the country. Loud noises and flashing lights are known to scare dogs and have them head for hiding. Now many owners are trying to find them and bring them back home.

The Idaho Humane Society was busy today with people desperately looking for their pets. Dogs that had gone missing over the holiday because of fireworks. 

Kaitlyn Smith lost her pet cocker spaniel during the evening of the 4th of July, and had spent hours looking for him in her neighborhood before she went to the pound.

"What are you missing, a little cocker spaniel, yeah, we haven't gotten one in yet but come back this afternoon because we get them in all day long," said Kaitlyn Smith, lost her dog.

As Kaitlyn made her way down the aisles of kennels, she was out of luck as Chucky was nowhere to be found.

"I was just waiting for how excited he would be for me, I knew he would just freak out and come to the gate," said Smith.

The Idaho Humane Society says pet owners will come and go throughout the day and so will dogs. Like this German Shepard found in Boise.  It's injured and off to get checked while he waits for an owner to come and rescue him. In the mean time, Pixie Merrick is at the Humane Society bringing in a dog she found.

"He showed up on my front door step," said Pixie Merrick, found lost dog.

This pet escaped from it's home.  Fortunately for Pixie, the puppy has a microchip and she was able to track down her owners. While Pixie fills out paperwork, Anne Marie Weissbeck is reunited with her dog, Milo.

"I didn't think she would jump the fence and i thought that she would just stay there, but she heard those firecrackers and she was gone, took off and was gone," said Anne Marie Weissbeck, Found her dog at pound

Trudy and Alexandria also spent the day looking for their pet.  They scan the kennels looking for Zippy.

"A shitzue, a really cute one, so we are hoping somebody gives him back," said Trudy Crawford, Lost dog.

Zippy who left late last night has not shown up back home and unfortunately is not in the kennel.

"It would have been nice to see him and go home with him," said Crawford.

"Most people don't think that their dog is going to be the one that runs away, even a woman this morning i didn't think that my dog would run away but you never know," said Dee Dee Bowring, Idaho Humane Society. 

Dee Dee Bowring says Saturday morning the shelter's phones were filled with messages from pet owners looking for their pouches -- and the phones have been ringing off the hook.

She says the kennels are half full right now with missing dogs, but by the end of the weekend she expects them to be completely packed.

"We will get the stragglers that are still running and nobody has caught, because they are fearful you saw the German Shepard, it's a crazy night for them, so the next couple days we will get them coming in," said Dee Dee Bowring, Idaho Humane Society.

The dogs rescued this weekend will be at the pound for seven days before they become available for adoption. The Humane Society says only about half the owners that lost dogs will look for them the others will just leave them in the kennels for adoption.
