As Megan's Dad, I found the Rainbow Briidge verse (& still do) very poignant, it moistens my eyes when I read it. She was Daddys Little Poppet, always trusting me to make things right, such as when she got brambles caught in her coat. I work away in the MN, but she was always so very happy to see me when I came home. Losing her at a bridge, & then finding her there, the verse is a tear jerker. I am just glad that I was home through this ordeal. It still takes a little getting used to, never to see her cheeky mischeivous grin, scruffy ear fringes, the look on her face when she went to bed at night, & all her other cheeky little habits.
Thank you so much to everyone who has given us support, & so much wanted Megan to come home. She has, but not as we all wanted, but at least she is home with us now. Thank you again.

Had phone call today about some1 who thinks they have megan..hopfully its her will keep u all posted!

Yet more bridle path & field walking yesterday & still no sign of Megan. Beginning to wonder if someone picked her up in a car & is, for now, keeping her. Going back again this morning, maybe a Sunday only dogwalker saw something last week. In the meantime have found more websites & added her details, someone somewhere knows where she is, we just have to reach out & find that person.
AlisonH
That sounds promising. Come on Megan about time you were home.
ashBash
just heard late last night a frantic dog barking was heard near south carlton . but due ti the pitchdark nothing was found the barking was after the person was calling for megan
ashBash
we are out again today searching the area where we lost megan we were out from 10am till 8-30 yesterday .She may be stuck in ditch or in a building near trees.

Wishing you lots of luck, hope Megans home soon. I dont know if it advisable but we bought some great lamps from asda £12 similar to a lamping light with a fantastic beam it picks up the eyes of animals hiding,great for searching early morning.Tays mum Gail xxx

Owners have just had a call saying a dog matching Megan's description has been seen on the common. Unfortunately the caller didn't say which of the 2 commons but is going to visit both. Will bump to the top.
AlisonH
Still no news of Megan. Owners are printing more posters and extending the search.
Unknown
Keep thinking about this lovely girl...Hoping for some good news soon :)x
AlisonH
Thanks for posting an update ashBash. Stay positive and keep spreading the word.

I know it is so stressful, but you are doing well - keep going. So many dogs get back home, even if you think it is impossible - nothing ever is on this site. Do not give up hope - ever! If there is a railway nearby you must notify them and try and check - you need to see if any Network Rail person has seen her. I only say this because usually railways are next to rivers. The posters will bring news, so keep them going up - hundreds of them. Good luck, keep safe precious Megan. x
ashBash
Hi everyone thanks for the support and comments, we have searched all day today, put posters up all over the place and asked lots of people, we have rang lots of places, Vets, Kennels etc and as of the moment nothing has come through but we are still hopful!
AlisonH
Just spoken with the owner and they have done all they can but because it was the weekend they were not able to get in touch with all the authorities. They will be calling them all this morning. Farmers, game keepers, police and all locals have been made aware. Posters gone up. Biggest fear is that she has fallen in the river and owners have been searching the water and followed the flow up to the sluice gates. Have suggested they leave a piece of clothing with their smell on near to the place she went missing in case she returns. Family searched until it went dark last night and were out again at 5am this morning. Hope she is found soon.Last edited: 2011-09-19 08:37:44 by AlisonH
