Comment from owner.........It's safe to say that we couldn't have found our lovely girl without the help, support and encouragement from the people of Ulverston and beyond. The response from our friends, family, local people and the wonderful volunteers from dog rescue charities has been overwhelming. This is going to be a bit of a list...

Thank you to everyone who shared her Facebook post, joined her group, talked to a neighbour, told their friends and family, stopped a dog walker, put up a poster, handed out a flyer... It was this crucial, ground-level awareness work that meant Raccoon was recognised when she showed herself.

Thank you to the local post office, who put her poster in their staff room and told all their employees. Thank you to the vets who displayed her poster, Nadine at Network Rail for alerting the train lines (this proved crucial - rescue story to follow...), Danny Matthews at Heart North Lancashire and Cumbria for the shout-out and all the other local shops and businesses who displayed her poster and talked to their customers. (Thanks to the lady at Croftlands Launderette for the hug yesterday morning - I was at a low ebb.)

Thank you to our friends who came and helped us go door-to-door in sighting areas and beyond. This was absolutely essential for getting the sightings in on Saturday and Monday, and we never could've covered as much ground without you - see map below for all the streets we covered by the time she was found. This was a lonely and emotional job by yourself - believe me, I did it all morning on Monday - and your support on the way round was invaluable. Thank you. Andrew and Tina Makinson, Will Reed and Amy, Cynthia, Sarah Pattison, Paul Jordin and Ceri Hutton.

Thank you to everyone who went out looking for Raccoon. Some of you are friends, some of you are people we'd never met before, but who took it upon themselves to head out at all hours to keep a gentle eye out for her. People even drove to Ulverston from other parts of Cumbria to help. We were amazed.

Thank you to the TWENTY-TWO PEOPLE who rang or messaged us yesterday to say Raccoon was on the railway line or when she was in the park. Thanks also to Jasmine Campion, who continued to keep watch from her workplace window and sent me pictures of Raccoon's exact location multiple times.

Thank you to the crazy band of pals who came to the Honeypot at 2am on Friday night and spent two hours helping us look for her (even if we did get reported to the police...!). What an effort. Kirsty Goodall Rob Harrison Vicky Hill James Jimmy Miller Hayley Parsons Sarah Pattison

Thank you to Paul's mum and dad, Tina and Andrew, who spent two solid days with us going door-to-door and putting up posters. They also fed us sandwiches, cake and tea at a time when our self-care was pretty poor.

Thank you to Paul the taxi driver from Priory Taxis, and his very accommodating passenger (!), who spotted Raccoon in the Honeypot at 1:30am, drove round keeping tabs and phoned us. This was our first sighting and we were so relieved to hear she was ok.

Thank you to the team at Ulverston station for alerting their drivers and stopping a train for us (sickeningly worrying times). Thank you to the amazing Colin Walker from the Incident Response Team who drove us to an access road to the line, and then stayed with Paul for the next four hours while Ceri and I were on the other side of the bridge with Raccoon. We are very grateful for your support in these difficult hours.

Thank you to the people who live i

Absolutely thrilled to move Raccoon into the blue. Been a very stressful day for all. Update once she is home and settled.

UPDATE ON CURRENT FOCUS: We are heading for wooded areas surrounding Ulverston/Urswick etc. It would also be good to search villages like Gleaston and Newton, if people are looking for places to help.
