- Brilliant news. Well done to everyone involved. I wondered if Doris and DINKY's owner could share info about how and where they were found and safely recovered with Dogslost admin and the owners of missing dog LEXI, missing 1 year from Hinckley, very close to where Doris and Dinkey were stolen. It may be that LEXI was taken/ is being held by the same people and any new info could help the search for LEXI ( ref 131437)Last edited: 2019-07-05 13:59:19 by Joan

- 26/05/19 update from FB group :
We have had a report from a group member of a potential sighting in Edinburgh....This photo was taken at 1:21 at Leith Walk bus stop called Pilrig Street going towards Princess street. The guy then took a bus number 22
I can’t tell from these pictures, but it COULD be Dinky......Do we have any members in the area? Reporter says this dog had the same markings as Dinky???? - 2019-05-20 09:22 Lisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central

We have had two potential sightings in Nuneaton, around the Higham Lane, Queens Rd area.....it might be nothing and we have no pictures or anything else to confirm these sightings, plus we have heavily postered in these areas. I would ask though, that people in those areas keep an extra look out and if you see ANYTHING AT ALL please, if you can, take a picture so we can at least rule these dogs out. Thanks all xx - 2019-04-21 21:52 sharon57blue

- Lisa P, is it possible to have a poster of the girls together please? Our members have asked as it would be more cost efficient to print them off.

"This is torture.....I can’t sleep because I don’t know if they are sleeping...are they warm and safe? Do they have a comfy bed? Is Doris being watched for her seizures??.....she doesn’t have her medication....without it she will die - the fits will kill her..
I can’t eat because I don’t know if they are eating....have they been fed? What have they been fed? They both have problems with their teeth so have to eat a special diet and have regular dentals at the vet........not looking after their teeth leads to heart disease...
Are Dinkys knees being protected? her knees randomly dislocate so she she can’t walk far. We’ve been discussing the operation needed with our vet....she is going to need that soon......
They were adult dogs when we adopted them and we knew they had all these problems.....My girls need extra care and attention and I feel like ripping off my own skin, I’m so scared for them.....please send them home........" - 2019-03-15 02:12 Lisa P - Regional Co-ordinator, Central
