- 2014-07-06 12:23 Poochpal - Regional Co-ordinator - South West - Police Liaison Team
- Worthy of a bump. Jared's mum took Ellie to Peterborough yesterday, I have not been able to speak to her directly but jayniem (Scottish Rescue Tails) who organised the transport reports that Ellie has been a very good girl and further transport is now taking her home. We will update later with reunited photos. Both have refused donations so far but we will not let them leave empty handed.
- 2014-07-06 11:42 Sherlock- Area Co-ordinator & Police Liaison - Avon & South Gloucestersh
- Was just about to tweet update for Ellie x....fantastic....let us all know how to donate xx
- 2014-07-05 22:16 Poochpal - Regional Co-ordinator - South West - Police Liaison Team
- Hopefully the journey is underway, I have spoken to jayniem again today regarding donations towards fuel costs but was not able to talk her into giving me details. I will try again tomorrow if I am lucky enough to meet at the reunion. Fingers crossed that Ellie will at last be back where she belongs this time tomorrow.

- Good question allimac, I am calling those concerned today to ask the same question . I will post any details on here later.
- 2014-07-04 19:16 allimac
- This is making me cry - mostly happily. I do hope you get a happy reunion - long time for a dog. If only she could tell us what adventures she has been up to. I hope nothing too bad. xxx
p.s. is there a need for donations for fuel costs? - 2014-07-03 22:11 Poochpal - Regional Co-ordinator - South West - Police Liaison Team

- Fantastic hope the owners welcome her back after waiting so long xxx the power of microchip wins again xxxxx
- 2014-06-29 21:19 allimac
- oh my dog! It would be so amazing if this is her. I suppose it is pretty freaky getting your dog back after so long, but it must nonetheless be soooo good to know she is still there and ok (sort of anyway). Hoping to see a happy ending.
- 2014-06-29 21:05 Poochpal - Regional Co-ordinator - South West - Police Liaison Team
- I have just visited the address on the chip, resident kindly called the previous occupied who is related to Ellie's owner and now has the contact number for the kennels where Ellie is being looked after.
- 2014-06-29 20:01 Poochpal - Regional Co-ordinator - South West - Police Liaison Team
- Chip details confirm that the girlie in Fife is Ellie. Unfortunately the contact numbers are out of date but we will do all we can yo trace the owner. If anyone reading this please can you ask her to call admin on 08448003220.
Ellie has been well looked after, she is in good condition and just wants to be cuddled all the time. - 2014-06-29 18:38 Poochpal - Regional Co-ordinator - South West - Police Liaison Team
- It would be amazing if it is, has her chip shown up? I have left a message on the answer machine and sent an email for more details.
- 2014-06-29 13:46 Jareds mum
- Hi we are in Fife and this dog has turned up I think in my kennels. I think.
- 2009-03-05 21:36 Poochpal - Regional Co-ordinator - South West - Police Liaison Team
- Sorry but not Ellie. Kennels sent photo to phone, forwarded to Ellie's owner as she has no internet access. She has just replied to say not Ellie but has had possible sighting of her in the Poole area so is going to start postering again. She has reported it to the police but they cannot do anything without evidence.Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- It doesn't look as if the white patches on the Rochdale dog match Ellie. Still waiting for definite confirmation either way.

- Merymut, well done for being so observant. Last night my friend on the RDR team rang me to tell me about the dog which the police brought in, and I told the DL team - and we saw you had just picked up a possible match. Photos are being sent and details exchanged so I expect we will know fairly soon whether or not this is the same dog.

- The dog with RDR is still in the pound and won't come into our care until her pts date, 10th March, we will then transport her to kennels and safety so she will not be pts. We will try and get the pound to check to see if she has a scar, if not, the wonderful girls at our holding kennels will check.Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18
