Leave a tee shirt with your sent on so one that you have worn next to your skin, a one you have ran in would be ideal near to where you last was with the dog, put at the bottom of a tree or near a stone wall ect. The dog will come back looking for you if it can’t find you it will lay next to the tee-shirt with you’re sent on and wait for you.
I lost my dog at last light, I took off my tee shirt and returned at first light and sure enough she was curled up on my tee shirt asleep.
