Ring's new AI feature helps find lost dogs
Amazon's Ring just rolled out "Search Party for Dogs," an AI-powered feature that helps people find their lost pups.
You don't need a Ring camera—just report your missing dog using the Ring or Neighbors app.
Since Fall 2025, the tool has already reunited over one dog a day by scanning neighborhood camera footage.
How does the search work?
Upload a photo of your missing dog, and the AI scans nearby outdoor Ring cameras to spot matches based on appearance, size, and breed.
Camera owners get an alert with your dog's photo and can share helpful footage privately—no phone numbers needed.
Ring is also helping animal shelters
Ring is committing $1 million to help equip animal shelters and aims to assist the more than 4,000 US shelters, teaming up with Petco Love and Best Friends Animal Society.
Last year alone saw over a million lost pet reports on the Neighbors app.
There are already feel-good stories: one Kansas resident found her dog Nyx in just 15 minutes; another user was reunited with his service dog Lainey on the same day he went missing.
