Bertie looks so pleased with himself! A springer would find mud in a dessert 😁

Bertie has been caught this morning, his family managed to be in the right place at the right time! They are overwhelmed by the support & help of everyone's efforts & would like to thank everyone who has contributed to Bertie's safe capture! x

Some more sightings in the area yesterday, the family are working hard towards his safe capture, Ray has kindly offered his help to Bertie's family which of course will be invaluable, it is also really important that people don't leave food out for Bertie please as this will compromise the feeding station x

2018-01-27 12:43 DogLostLisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

There have been no sightings reported today, the weather is grim so we hope he has found somewhere dry & is laying low, sadly the weather conditions mean that the drones can't fly today but the pilots are monitoring & will get up as soon as they can safely do so x

2018-01-26 18:53 DogLostLisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

We have decided against a ground search tomorrow, we have a really good understanding of Bertie's movements & if a lot of people arrive this could scare him off, if he moves on we will be back to square one, people who have asked if they can help will be asked to help poster & deliver flyers through the doors of the houses overlooking the fields x

2018-01-26 15:26 DogLostLisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

Thanks Sara, I will check with the family & let you know, I think this is a good thought but could be too confusing for him & jeopardise the actual scenting they are doing x

2018-01-26 15:23 SARA

great let us know what time and place to meet up, do you think it would help if we all had a piece of clothing or a blanket of the owners cut into to pieces so he smells them if we are close, maybe kept in a plastic bag so it keeps the smell for when needed ??

2018-01-26 15:18 DogLostLisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

Hi Sara, great idea, I'm sure the family would appreciate any help that is available & hoping the drones can fly too! x

2018-01-26 14:29 SARA

is it worth organising a search party for tomorrow morning, it may be easier if we are all there at the same time working in different areas ?? x

2018-01-26 11:18 DogLostLisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

Further sigthing just now heading towards the airfield, owner is on way to area so any sightings please call x

2018-01-26 10:27 DogLostLisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

Bertie has been sighted this morning opposite Charlton House Farm. The land owner has also been in touch with the family to kindly provide assistance with access to the land x

2018-01-26 08:23 DogLostLisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

Bertie's family are working hard to safely capture him & are overwhelmed by the support Bertie is receiving from the local community. We now have a good idea of his route & with new sightings being regularly & accurately reported this is developing all the time, the family are scenting in the area & also trying things such as BBQ, leaving their car running etc. There has been a lot of help on social media to raise awareness so that people know who to contact when they see Bertie & posters & flyers are being distributed in the area, dog warden, police, local vets & farmers are all aware of Bertie as well as local businesses, it is hoped, weather permitting that drones will be able to go up soon, please remember if you see Bertie call the number on the poster, please dont chase him x

Thank you Sara that's a great help x

2018-01-25 18:18 SARA

I will call Hinton skydiving again tomorrow and ask the pilot and divers to keep a look out, the guys down there are big dog lovers ☹️X

2018-01-25 18:15 DogLostLisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

Thank you both, more & more sightings are coming in & this is really helpful as it is building a really good picture of his movements & his route! His family are working hard to capture him safely & the better we can establish his movements the better this will be for their efforts to be successful x

2018-01-25 18:12 SARA

I was out today about 3.30pm walking along the bridleway from Charlton Road towards Hinton. I saw a lady with two dogs who told me she had seen Bertie 1/2 hour before. He didn’t react at all when she tried to entice him with a biscuit. She said he looked well and was on a mission walking quickly up the bridleway towards the main road to Charlton. I drove round to the other end and walked down but no sign, I also went back in to Hinton as that was the direction he was going in, but no sign unfortunately.

2018-01-25 17:22 DogLostLisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

Thank you Bobz, it is within the fields that run to the left of the road that runs from Charlton to Hinton x

Anne has met with a local who has seen him, currently following up on details and will post update

2018-01-25 15:52 Bobz

sorry, but could you confirm where The Firs area is please as my wife is out looking for Bertie with the help of our chocolate Lab Choxi. Thx

2018-01-25 15:01 DogLostLisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

Bertie was sighted around 12:30 in The Firs area near Charlton x

2018-01-25 08:51 DogLostLisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

Brilliant suggestion on Twitter x "A great way to record exact location and time of a sighting if you have a smart phone is to open google maps and take a screen shot. It will show your exact location and time when you saw him"

2018-01-25 08:09 DogLostLisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

If Bertie is seen PLEASE DO NOT try to catch him as he is now very scared, please call the number on the poster if possible whilst keeping Bertie in sight if possible. When reporting sightings, please try to give an exact location to enable his family to keep an accurate track of his movements on a map and please report the direction of travel if he was moving. Scenting guidance has been given & drones are hoped to fly on Saturday, more details will be given nearer to the time with any requirements of searchers from pilots x

2018-01-25 04:56 DogLostLisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

Further sightings reported at the Hinton crossroads as 5pm x

Thank you ClaireC! Drone SAR are aware of Bertie, a local drone pilot is a friend of Bertie's family, unfortunately was unable to fly today due to weather but is in touch with family x

2018-01-24 18:18 ClaireC

I’ve asked American neighbours to put on their website at RAF Croughton Bertie’s missing details.

2018-01-24 18:16 ClaireC

I was there then! He had to have been hiding from me!

2018-01-24 16:57 DogLostLisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

Sighting 3:20pm: He was in the fields just off of the single track road between Croughton & Charlton x

2018-01-24 14:34 DogLostLisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

Another sighting near Hinton in the hedges at 2.30 today someone tried to pick him up but he ran off towards Charlton x

2018-01-24 14:25 SARA

Other half been in Charlton since 1, no sightings from anyone. Postman, shop and dog walkers informed. Would help if any sightings have a precise area and direction he is traveling.

2018-01-24 13:15 ClaireC

Been out all around Farthinghoe. Will go out again when I’ve got clothes dried to Charlton!
