How to call home a lost dog

To call back home a lost dog, you place a small clay jar in the middle of the doorway, you tap the mouth of the jar, saying the name of the dog three times: Come, here's your house! Come, here's your house! Come, here's your house! is what you say. The dog will come back the next day or the third day. If you don't have a jar, you can blow into a gourd three times. (Version in Tzotzil language)
