Absolutely over the moon that Midge has been found safe...don't think she made her own way there either! I can't imagine how desolate the owner must have been feeling but think I can imagine how overjoyed he must be now 🤗...Such a Happy Homecoming...bless them both x ❤❤

Great news. So very pleased for owner. Don`t think she got their on her own either. Was probably made "TOO HOT TO HANDLE" re; posters etc. Stay close now Midge:-) xxx

Home address to stourport area has to be 45 - 50 miles.....she didn't get there on her own did she! Thank heavens she's home safe. Hope she's not too upset by her awful experience.

It seems she was found wandering on a main road many miles from her home and handed into Vale Vets near Stourport.

The best news, this little girl was really playing on my mind. Felt so happy tweeting the word 'Reunited' for her :-) xxx

So pleased, that is the best news! I'll contact Galway Garda and Dog Warden again so they aren't looking for her at the Fair this weekend in Ireland. I'd like to update the Irish post I put up, do we have any further information?

Made too hot to handle ?
Recovered by Police ?.
I sincerely hope it is the latter following a Tip Off & then the Evil, Cruel, Greedy Thieving Thieves can be Hauled before the Courts & ordered to have their Thieving Fingers chopped off!!
I will update my Tweet/s .

The car appears to have been a silver/beige coloured 4x4 with 2 men in it
#stoppettheft
A Silver 4 x 4 ?.
There are NO updates on the Owner's Neighbour's Facebook post - Lots of kind Shares & advice to register on here etc etc., but details like this need to be shared , don't they ?.
Midge needs A Facebook Group creating for Her to Help make Midge too hot to handle .
ARE West Mercia Police actively Searching ?

I do hope the west Mercia police visit neighbouring traveller sites...good number of stolen dogs 'happen' to be found on them.....sorry, not intending to tar everyone with the same brush, but theft of dogs for breeding , hare courseing or selling on does seem to be commonplace and is almost a full time job for some......IT HAS TO STOP! Come on police....ZERO TOLERANCE!

CRN Now issued Midge is registered as Stolen by the police. Please share Midge's Stolen poster far and wide xxx
#stoppettheft
I am SO Sorry that Midge is Still not home 😪
Truly despicable if that Man has snatched Midge in a Distraction Theft 😠
If a very rural area then the Thief must have been in a vehicle - perhaps a White Van or Pick Uo !!?😠
....I Hope that the Police will be carrying out raids on all sites in their area, urgently.
Has the Gentleman had any Callers recently , touting for work ?
Any nearby Filling Stations seen suspicious Man/Men & Vehicle ?
I tweeted this morning, now over 220 Retweets - & I urged Owner's Neighbour to Register here etc .
Maybe a good idea to have a Facebook page created for Midge ?. Place Stolen Ads. on Selling Sites - especially Dragon Driving, Gumtree & Shpock !!
Her poor Owner must be in bits -
Midge will be Too hot to handle very soon, I am sure 🙏🐾

I spoke to Claire the neighbour earlier . Bill the owner is 78 yrs old and very worried for the safety of Midge who is 8yrs old and never wanders off .. hoping this lovely girl is soon found safe .. massive shares from Claire's post last time I looked it was 17k ! X
Claire
Theft has been reported to police, have got an incident number, waiting for crime reference number from them. Will pass it on asap. We are the only two houses on a country lane no cctv anywhere, have asked in the village nearby
DogLostSandra Watt
Claire - assume this theft has been reported to police. Please can you email crime reference number to stolen@doglost.co.uk to have status changed to stolen.

From facebook "Stolen at lunchtime today from my elderly neighbour! A man called at his house looking for public toilets, we are in the middle of nowhere!! Within 5 minutes of the man leaving, we all heard a yelp and the dog was gone, the garden gate was still open! "

Hoping Midge will be home safe soon x

Claire, any neighbours with cctv? Or those doorbells which pick up the presence of visitors ( wanted and unwanted ) or any local cars with dash cams that could have seen anything... Any strange vehicles in the vicinity...any other neighbours have anything taken from their gardens around the same time....I do hope she's wandered off in pursuit of a bird or something that has captured her interest and will be back home soon, but if she has been taken then the more info you can gleen sooner rather than later may help to locate her.
