Can everyone who is looking out for our puppies please pm me with your email address. I will send you a photograph of Bee as she is now, to give you an idea of what you are looking for.

I was at Court this morning with my friend Tracie, there for moral support. I put everyone else off as I had been told by the CPS that it was only a plea. The defendant rocked up an hour and 15 minutes late, showing complete contempt for the Court. Never mind, it gave me time to become acquainted with PC Dunn, who shook the hand I offered him but then gazed at the floor, clearly in embarrassment at the poor job he has done for our puppies. Into Court 4 at Wood Green Crown Court, the defendant was arraigned (burglary and handling stolen goods), and pleaded not guilty. This appeared to astound the Judge, who advised the defendant's counsel to address the somewhat weird situation of the defendant accepting she was at the scene, but not knowing it was a burglary and not taking part. Maybe the puppies answered the door and asked to be rehomed in lovely Tottenham. Indeed, the Judge did not appear impressed at all, particularly upon hearing that the defendant has a string of convictions for dishonesty. Whereas the defendant previously had unconditional bail, he imposed a condition of residence. The trial will not take place until ...... wait for it.......October 2008. Doesn't matter, I can wait. If I can wait as long as it takes for the puppies to come home, then I can wait to see justice done. I will post the trial date when I know it. I kept my head this time, and my dignity, despite some murmurs as we left Court. All I want is the puppies to come home. I keep looking, and will never ever give up. Thank you for all your kind messages. Keep looking for Sissy, Gerry, Girl and Puppy 2, Little Boy, whose life I saved on the day he was born and whose life I would love to be involved in.

Hi, found this ad for staffordshire bull terrier crosses - see link. http://www.preloved.co.uk/index.cfm?fuseaction=adverts.showadvert&index=1031224160&utm_source=oodle&utm_medium=export&cs=c99683f7 The photo in top right corner is so very similar - zoomed in and the only slight difference may be the white nose marking variation but may be worth checking out. Not sure on the sex, age or location of the one being advertised but the phone number given is 07795124143 and contact name is Matt. Jo

Heard today from the Enfield dog warden who informed me that a dog who sounded similar to Girl had been taken to Edmonton police station last night. I rang them (she'd been ringing for ages) and got no answer to several numbers (quelle surprise). I then got on to Battersea, who had picked this girl up this morning. The very helpful girl at Battersea, Carly, looked on Doglost then went to check the dog brought in. Not our little Girl. I tried not to be hopeful, but couldn't help it and am feeling a bit choked now. Thank you dog warden Suzanne and Carly

Sally, if you haven't already go to the police straight away about these phone calls. This is , as everyone before me has said, harrassment and intimidation. This has got to be logged down. You are such a courageous person and with all your determination and bravery I am certain you will get your little ones back. I am behind you 100% and so so wish I was near to you to be able to support you in person on the 23rd. However I will be with you in every other way, mind and spirit, like so many others. I do not wish to tarnish my posting with mentioning those involved but may they rot!! Lots of love to you Tracy x x x x

Hi Jayne Two very clear sightings at Walthamstow Central tube station. Not sure which of the puppies as the message didn't specify, but she did say that she saw a puppy that she was sure was one of ours with 2 young black girls on Tuesday. She admired the pup and asked what cross it was. They told her pit bull/ american bull. The caller was sure it was not and called and left a message immediately. Saw them the next day and was even more sure the puppy was one of the ones in the picture. I'm guessing Girl. I'm now getting threatening phone calls....e mail from owner.

I'm pretty sure this girl has quite a bit of court experience by the sound of it. You could ask the police or BT to put a trace on the calls which might be good with a case pending? We are all supporting you on this site to get your babies back and I wouldn't worry about breaking down like that. We would all have done that and some of us worse. You're on the right track from reading the postings and probably spot on where they are. Maybe you need extra the help of a super sleuth? love Sylv x

Well done you for speaking up and facing her!! Evil B. If telephone calls continue either do 1471 and take down telephone number but I would definetly report them to your solicitor or the police and then you can have them done for harrassment and intimadation too, which wont look good in court in October when thats made public knowledge either. Keep fighting for your little ones, good luck. Will think of you on day of trial. Well Done you for getting this far.

POSSIBLE SIGHTING IN ISLINGTON AREA SUNDAY 23 SEPTEMBER - CLISSOLD PARK, NEAR THE WHITE HOUSE. Heard from a woman this morning who saw some black youths with 2 brindle puppies looking very much like Little Boy and Little Girl. Neither of them on leads and no collars. When asked why not, no reasonable answer. ANOTHER SIGHTING OF PUPPY BRINDLE BITCH LOOKING JUST LIKE GIRL IN MORNING LANE, HACKNEY, OUTSIDE TESCOS, IN THE LAST WEEK. TWO YOUNG BLACK GIRLS TRYING TO SELL HER. PLEASE, ALL YOU HACKNEY AND ISLINGTON PEOPLE, KEEP YOUR EYES PEELED. THEY ARE GETTING BIG NOW BUT STILL HAVE THAT FLOPPY PUPPY WALK.

So glad to see so many in the blue over the last couple of days, and I find myself wondering will our little guys ever join them? I will never, ever give up, but am I going to be stalking the streets with my posters in months, or even years' time? The thing that scares me is that they were so tiny when they were taken. No microchips, no tags, nothing. They will probably have learnt new names now and forgotten us. I hope wherever they are, they are safe and looked after, and that they are not being ill-treated. It feels like looking for a needle in a haystack, and right now it feels so hopeless. When I get to sleep, which isn't often, I'm having weird puppy dreams. My house is a tip. I can't concentrate on much other than this site. Don't know what I would do without it.

Just got back from an evening out postering more of Tottenham and Edmonton. Think I've done every other telegraph pole. Th Ebay advert may be working. XXXXXXX POSSIBLE SIGHTING XXXXXXX. I had a call from a man today who reports he has seen a puppy looking just like Gerry, SISSY'S sister. He saw the ad on Saturday night, and on Sunday morning was at a car boot sale in Chelmsford. Saw a puppy he was sure was Gerry with a middle-aged couple. Said she looked well cared for. He spoke to them, admiring the puppy and asked where they got her. The woman blurted out that her son had found the pup wandering in the street in London. Observant man then said to the couple that he was sure the pup was one of a stolen litter he had seen on Ebay. At that, the man said "bo....ks" and pulled the woman away. The man followed them to their car and took the number plate. Anyone know this couple? New white and brindle puppy, blue Toyota Celica. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, all those Doglost people in the Chelmsford area, pm me for the new poster, and begin postering.

have just spent a heartbreaking 2 hours at Edmonton and Enfield police station viewing and ruling out 3 puppies that I was so certain were ours. Virtually all their physical characteristics matched our pups, other than the fact that one bitch would have had to be a dog to be ours. We know the ones we saw today all came from the same litter, so they couldn?t have been ours. We are devastated. I was sure ? 150% sure - that they were ours, but I was wrong. I usually don?t mind being wrong, but this time it really hurts. At first I felt a fool ? but having given it some thought, I?m not. I fought ? we all fought ? for what was right, and for the police to take us seriously. I hope they don?t think I am a fool too. I?m sad that 3 little pups spent hours in kennels ? and that is down to me. I am sorry that their owners were arrested. I want to thank officer Nick Miller, for his respectful approach and for treating me so courteously. I also want to thank Borough Commander Simon Thomas for finally making things happen, and I want to apologise to Paul Dunn for the rude emails he apparently got however, I still believe that had he taken me more seriously at the beginning we could have cleared this up more quickly and less painfully. Having said all that, I still believe that dogs need better laws, and I am certain that all of us who are grieving for missing dogs will feel that too. I want to thank the very special person who did so much to try and reunite us with our puppies ? you know who you are, and you should not feel bad that it didn?t happen. You tried, and you were right to do that. I very much appreciate it. I hope that more people like you come forward and that we have more luck. I want to thank Doglost and all you helpers - you are absolutely fantastic. For now, there is still an empty space on my bed for Sissy, and her brother and sisters are terribly missed. We carry on looking, and one day we will find them. Keep postering, and don?t forget SISSY and her brother

I'm so sorry. In my frazzled state of anxiety and fatigue - not sleeping too well at all - I gave you the wrong email address (and name!) of the officer in the case. His name is Paul, not Mike. Don't know where that came from, just know I'm so tired. Try Paul.Dunn@met.police.uk or Paul.Dunn@met.pnn.police.uk. The Simon Thomas address is correct. Thanks, and once again, so sorry for wasting your time.

A long complaint has gone into the Borough Commander of the police tonight. Local and national press were copied in, as was head office of Doglost. I expect to hear back tomorrow. We watched the address tonight and heard our puppies. Very good reasons for not going in to get them.....although I would have loved to. Won't be long now.

PUPPY ONE AND TWO HAVE BEEN SIGHTED AND THE POLICE ARE DOING NOTHING. Following a positive sighting and then seeing one of the pups ourselves - definitely puppy two, we reported the matter to the police. Yesterday I was informed by a DC at Edmonton police station that search warrants were written out and would this morning be presented at Court. Today I got a call from the officer in the case - PC Dunn at Edmonton. He now tells me he knows nothing about the warrants, that he will not even visit the addresses until next week, and even then, if the people holding our puppies say they bought them legitimately, they will leave them there, give us the details, and we will have to take out a civil case. They will not get them back. They have also refused funding for a DNA test. I told them that in this case, we will have to go and get the pups back ourselves. He told me not to do that, as we might then get arrested. SOMEBODY HELP US. WHAT DO WE DO?

We always thought that at least some of the puppies would turn up in East London. A couple of weeks ago I postered around Walthamstow Greyhound Stadium in Chingford. Today I got a call from a chap who had seen the posters and was sure he had seen at least one, maybe two of the pups in the E4 area close to where his mate lives. He was able to give us pretty good directions. We drove down there and we saw one of the puppies. Could do nothing at the time, due to having a car full of dogs, kids and the fact that the man walking the pup had a baby with him. We are going to the police right now. I will be telling them that we are only interested in getting the puppies back. Please keep everything crossed - we've had a week of vile crank calls and false leads.

I have a strong feeling that Sissy and Gerry are in East London and that is why they haven't been sighted. I was in Stratford on Friday and postered the town center and all along Romford Road. Can I ask that East London helpers begin postering. I'm thinking Hackney, Plaistow, Forest Gate, Walthamstow, Stratford, Canning Town, Tower Hamlets. And I still think some of the others are in Tottenham.

Very grateful to majorjet, who has provided new posters and leaflets for our search. We will be attending a local festival tomorrow, and will leaflet the whole crowd. We will also have a "have you seen our puppies?" banner. We are so tired of driving round and following up leads that lead nowhere. But hey, tired is nothing. Our puppies are missing us, missing their mum. We will just carry on and on until they come HOME. Please study the photographs and remember SISSY and her brother and sisters.

We think this is the little girl who has been sighted on the recreation ground at Elsynge Road, Bullsmoor Lane/A10. Walked off the lead (I despair) by a young black man. Yesterday was in the company of another black man on a bike, with another puppy. May have been little Boy.

We have spent the last couple of days following up a couple of leads, one seeming to go nowhere, another quite promising. Postering and newspaper reports really seem to be helping. So many kind people willing to help. Thank you all. Please keep your eyes peeled when around Edmonton, Bullsmoor Lane and West green Road in Tottenham. The little girl who was returned is growing fast, approaching 8 weeks now and about a foot tall. Her brother and sisters will be the same size, and looking quite staffy now. If you need to call me, please have patience. I ped my phone down the loo this morning and need to go and get a new one. Some posters have been removed, will be out tonight replacing them. Anyone in the Barnet /Southgate area seen anything? Dog warden still heard nothing. I think in a couple of weeks when people are getting fed up of having to keep the pups indoors, then we'll get some results. All you people who have dogs missing from the Enfield/Haringey area, can we get together to try and raise awareness locally?

I have now had 2 sightings of tiny puppies that sound like ours in the Church St/Winchester Road area of Edmonton, N9. In particular, it looks like the female tiger brindle is in the possession of a young man, possibly teenager, of mediterranean appearance. Little tiger girl was seen tied to a post outside the kebab shop in Winchester Road, while the man went inside. I've just been down there and postered everywhere. The kebab shop owner was very helpful and put up a poster inside the shop. He also said he thought he may have seen one of the white puppies. Do you know this man? Please keep looking. I am on 07958 535128. I can't believe that young people find it so amusing to make crank calls. So far I've been told that our pups are in the river Lea, in the caller's freezer, and that they have killed them. Good thing I am a tough old boot and impervious to this nonsense. Please keep looking.

I have just discovered from the police, after trying to speak to them for a week, that the person they have charged in relation to the theft of our puppies is a woman. They will tell me little else, other than that she does not live in the borough of Enfield. She had 2 male accomplices and was traced because an off-duty police officer was walking past the flat as they came out with the puppies. The officer took a note of the car registration number. Clearly thought something was wrong - why didn't they intervene? The woman will probably get community service, I was told. I despair, I utterly despair. How can a person like that have anything to offer the community? please keep looking.

Had a call from a lady today who thinks she was offered one of the pups by a couple of young boys last Thursday (26/07) or Friday (27/07), in Church Street Edmonton. She has only just seen the poster. She said the boys were of mediterranean appearance, possibly Greek or Turkish. She told them to take it back to it's mum as it was too young to be alone. They told her it was 13 weeks, but it clearly wasn't. She said she saw a police car shortly after and it went after them. Why haven't I heard about this from the police? Please keep looking.

Thank you to everyone who has contacted me about our puppies. It really gives us hope that they will be found. Your words have been a great comfort. I am hearing that lots of pups turn up in Swanley, and Jenny is looking there tirelessly. Thank you Jenny. Have had no recent news from the police, and not sure what led them to the person who had little Gucci (shocking name, not guilty). Please keep looking - our babies are out there somewhere, and someone knows just where.

This little girl is one of a litter of 6 stolen in the afternoon of Wednesday 25 July. The thief kicked the door in and took them all while mum Eve must have been going mad. Poor Eve misses them terribly. So do we - the puppies all had loving responsible homes to go to. We are absolutely heartbroken. The little white girl with 2 eye patches on this site is called Sissy and was going to stay with us forever.At least we have one little girl back, who is now with her mum once again.Please help us, and remember they will be growing fast. Sally
