It isn't her dog

What happened to the dog Amber picked up from kennels ?
BigGSDPatlucky
The owner who I am in touch with
Her partner did not have Bella chipped
So much easier if chipped
DogLostCJ - Police Liaison & SE Regional Coordinator
best action is to get the microchip listed on site. By this time this dog may have been found and rehomed.

I look for Bella every single day
There have been to my mind no sightings.
There was one but I don't think it was Bella.
Bella s owner rang me last week excited as she thought she had found Bella.
Very much like her in the face but white on the chest was completely different .
Plus the back end was nothing like a Staff.
I so want her to be back home with her owner,
It is hard for her as she first had her partner die suddenly.
Then 5 gays later Bella got lost
Please share again
ClaireC
Thanks Pat
BigGSDPatlucky
I have spoken to Amber today
Someone has sent her what they thought was Bella.
After looking at both photo's I am 100% it is not her.
Amber may go look to make sure and that is the best idea.
I will post when I know more
So please do not stop looking
ClaireC
Any update is anyone aware of please?
BigGSDPatlucky
That is a good idea thanks will tell Amber.
ClaireC
Perhaps some local folk to the area can put a couple of posters in the Royal Mail post boxes as the posties usually take back to sorting office so that other posties keep an eye out. Also local florists are another good place for poster as they go out and about over a wide area. Likewise local estate agents and local radio.
BigGSDPatlucky
Thanks doglover will text her.
I do have her phone number but the two above are her neighbours.
I took Amber to see a dog for adoption at Acres was that looked like Bella sadly it was not her
Doglover
Patlucky. Amber,s phone numbers are on the post above and to get media coverage she needs to phone the local newspaper and ask to speak to the Newsweek and then tell her story.
BigGSDPatlucky
How does Amber go about doing that please
Rose
Can you try getting media coverage? Bella has been missing too long without sightings x
BigGSDPatlucky
Amber please take a look at this dog don't take notice of age just look
I cannot find you mobile number so cant text you

There has not been any sitings
Come on Bella
BigGSDPatlucky
I have spent a lot of the day looking on sites .
Trying to find lovely Bella.
I cannot believe she has not been spotted.
Her owner has not only lost her partner suddenly
Then Bella has gone missing
Please does anyone know where she is.
Has someone near you taken a dog in like Bella in the last few weeks.
If you do know where she is please ring or text me on 07754797107
We cannot bring the ladies partner back but please lets get Bella back home.
Please share
BigGSDPatlucky

Working round this area on Tuesday(eastwood rd north)but go round danescroft so will keep an eye out for bella x
DogLostCJ - Police Liaison & SE Regional Coordinator
Maybe could find out if the dog was microchipped. If to her partner maybe its their mobile details held and if found or scanned might not be able to make contact.
Patlucky if you managed to get details of chip send to me (dogloststolen@gmail.com) as can access petlog and see what details are held.
ALSO if helpful I can ask if this can be sent out on ECM Community Messaging for essex.

Paws xd for the safe return of Bella
BigGSDPatlucky
Doglover I am trying to find out more details
The partner died on the 13th July and the lady had his dog.
The dog escaped on the 18th July
DogLostOwl
This is obviously a sensitive situation and we should keep conjecture to a minimum and avoid posting anything which might cause more distress to the people concerned. Dogs do get very distressed by a situation like this and can behave out of character. This is not the first time a bereaved dog has run off. Have posters been put up, and has local publicity been done?
NickyB
i do hope bella is found, i do hope she is microchipped with up to date details, and i do hope she has a collar with id on............. but i know so many dogs do not.

Her partner died suddenly of a heart attack she had the dog.
A neighbour had looked after the dog for just a few minutes and she escaped.

Too far away to help but wishing you the best of luck
BigGSDPatlucky
I have just managed to speak to owner
It is very sad her partner died suddenly of a heart attack
Then 5 days later his dog goes missing
As you can imagine it was very delicate .
I am hoping Bella can be bumped and shared big time please,
There have not been an positive sightings.
The lady is out every day looking for his dog.
To lose a partner then his dog is just not nice
I have offered to help look for Bella.
We just need help sharing please in case someone has her
Or seen her even

BigGSDPatlucky

A little confusing as not heard that a boxer is lost

Two possible sighting on 22nd and 23rd July by Virgin sports centre in Thundersley. Area has been postered - local vets and Acres Kennels aware
BigGSDPatlucky
I have just phoned a couple of vets in the area .
Just in case she is found and taken to them to check chip.
BigGSDPatlucky
I have just seen Bella's poster.
For anyone in this area.
It says on the poster 2 sightings near the Virgin.
That is on the A129 (This sighting may not be correct)
Please keep an eye out for herLast edited: 2016-07-26 09:00:15 by Patlucky

Has he taken himself to Belfairs Park? Posters needed asap!
Contact dog Warden Sarah Moran, also the pound: Acresway Kennels at Thundersley in case he's there. Notify the chip company that she's missing, so no-one can claim her as their's. Contact ALL local vet surgeries, in the hope she'll be recognised if brought in. This certainly worked several Christmases ago when a dog was stolen locally and then escaped her captors.

Sorry to see that BELLA MISSING AFTER HER OWNER DIED is missing.
  • If your dog is microchipped please let the microchip company know that your dog is missing and check that all details are up to date.
  • Owners targeted by a malicious hoaxer demanding money for the return of their dog should phone the police on 101 immediately and contact admin@doglost.co.uk
  • A photograph of your dog is essential for the website. If you have not already uploaded one, please do so by clicking on Update details. Alternatively you can email it to admin@doglost.co.uk quoting the dog's DogLost ID number: (102628)
  • Obtain a missing poster by clicking on View poster above. Posters are very important so start postering now!
  • You will need to be logged in to upload photos, edit your dog's details, or add comments. You can add comments by clicking on Click here to add a comment.
  • Contact dog wardens, vets and local rescue centres, and in Scotland, the Police. Give a detailed description with any distinguishing marks/scars or send them a copy of your DogLost poster. You can find vets in your area here.
  • If your dog has been stolen inform the police immediately and obtain a crime reference number (CRN). Send an email to stolen@doglost.co.uk.
  • If your dog is picked up and taken to rescue kennels, it can be legally re-homed after seven days. Visit rescue centres in person and do not rely on checking by phone alone. Other people may not recognise your dog by your description, so give them a DogLost poster.
  • Keep us updated by keeping your dog's page up to date and check for posts from helpers who may have suggestions and possible matches or sightings
  • DogLost is free and anyone asking for money to find or return your dog is not volunteering for us. If you are concerned about an approach you have received, please email admin@doglost.co.uk
