I know your heart is hurting; it’s like an open sore
You think my life has ended and you won’t see me anymore.
But for those of us bound tight by love, death is not the curtain call;
It’s really the eternal beginning that waits for us all.
Run free in the sunshine Nigel forever young xx

What sad news.....I am so very sorry for Nigel's family ...we had so much hope xx God bless dear Nigel who has been called for angel duties xx
Mollychops
This is such a sad outcome. I was desperately hoping he would be found in a barn and be safe somewhere. The amount of wonderful caring people who turned out this morning for the search and to
support Nigel's owners was incredible. Huge thanks to each and every one of you .My thoughts are with Nigel's owners, who never gave up looking, they tried so hard to find him. Every single owner I have helped that has a dog at the bridge says the same thing, they would rather it was this way , than never knowing what happened.I hope his owners get some comfort from this Sleep in peace little man . God bless Last edited: 2017-01-07 12:47:58 by Mollychops

Mollychops
Bless you jenny , we will take your advice and hopefully tomorrow will bring a good result. You came all the way from Kent today to track Nigel, you are an absolute Saint.
nedk
Wish i could be there to help with the search for your dog i live to far away but be thinking of u all tommorow
Hope you get a resultx
Jenny & Tiga k9tracker
Just got home from tracking with Tiga - I suggest that the search party tomorrow goes to all farms and buildings in the close area to the Ravensroost Wood and not only ask if the residents have seen Nigel but ask if they can search the farm buildings etc. At such a young age Nigel will be sleeping a lot of the time. He is not in the woods - there is no where to shelter, find food etc but should come back to find owners but not stay. He cannot have gone far. There is a barn opposite the car park with dry hay which needs checking regularly and Tiga tracked up the cinder track to appropriately named Dog Trap Lane to a property that is being built - workmen were aware. Tiga also tracked across the field with the small horse jumps in. Each time Tiga came back to the woods.
If anyone can offer any help tomorrow please do. Nigel needs to be found.

No sign of Nigel this evening in Worthy Hill/ nineteen acre wood area west of ravensroost. I will go out again tomorrow night and on the weekend. Hope he is found soon.
Mollychops
Wilts and Glos Standard have done a good write up tonight
Mollychops
Nothing so far today . Owners have been going door to door,and have postered all around the entrances to the wood I will suggest they start postering further afield. Owners are doing a mass search for Nigel on Saturday at 9.30 Ravensroost car park. Please get the word out thereand come and help if you can. THIS PUPPY NEEDS TO COME HOME . Thanks
Lavinia567
I went for a walk there at midday but no sign of Nigel. Met sister of the owner who was out looking and suggested going to all the local farms/houses to let them know - not all use the internet! Will poster around Minety but think they need to poster local area as well as in the wood. I lost my two spaniels for over 48 hours so I know what they are going through. Let's hope he finds his way to a house soon.
Mollychops
Thanks Lilybear.I will suggest to owners a mass search is organised for the weekend, this little one needs finding fast.
Lilybear
Mollychops, sharing word of Nigel & will email our friend in area.

Thanks Owl,I will amend his details. I know owners have gone door to door with posters,heading out there shortly to have a look

I read on Facebook that Nigel is wearing a blue harness.
sarah deBrion
Fingers crossed. Cold night tonight. I know the woods well so hope he finds some shelter.
There are a few stables along the bridle paths that end of the woods and a few fields begore the roads to Minety/Purton.
He is also featured on Malmesbury, RWBassett and Cricklade police police websites and being shared locally on FB.
Mollychops
He went on the opp end from the car park Sarah. Im planning on going over at first light. Owners will be going over early too. Lets hope for some good news tomorrow .
Mollychops
Thanks Sarah, Ive asked owners to let me know the exact spot. The word is getting around local farmers. He in on the Minety FB Page,as well as others.
sarah deBrion
Very happy to help with a search at the weekend if he is still missing. I drive past twice daily so will keep looking. Which end of the wood did he get spooked? The car park side? Which track were you on at the time?
AbriiD
I shared Nigel's story to my Rescue Hub, then found his link here as well. I'll use both to share to Twitter every so often, so there's no issue from Twitter accusing me of spamming... Last edited: 2017-01-04 20:09:54 by AbriiD

Thanks JA . I Will pass on

I lost my dog a couple of weeks ago same area. She was gone a week and found in a field with sheep at Worthy Hill farm, in fields just west of ravensroost. She was discovered in a field that had an electric fence. The farmer thought she had been there a while and possibly was too scared of the fence to get out. My point is it is worth walking those fields to check he hasn't got into a field that is electrified and can't get out again. I will walk that way tomorrow evening if he is still not found.

Thanks Lavinia, help postering and searching would be great.Nigel was chased off on a walk by 2 GSDS today at 2pm. Owners have been searching,nothing so far, postera are going up. He is chipped and probably is wearing a disc. Owners are going back there now, and have placed some bedding in the area he went from. Nigel is only 14 14 weeks old. Ive emailed advice sheets andamabout to alert farmers, keepers etc in the area.
