- Have spoken to owner and her friend is going to collect Toby in the morning. LesleyG has been a helper on doglost for years and never thought this would happen to her...she thanks everyone for all their help...and is naturally very upset...Lesley has my number if she needs to talk.

- Thank you so much. I just got a call from Evelyn's husband, and I've been told "she's very stressed". She should be. Thank you so much for doing this. Please thank your boyfriend for me. This isn't the worst outcome. The worst would be never knowing.

- Angus - Just to clarify - It wasn't my boyfriend that found him and did the calling around, he was just on track with the guy that did find him, and rang me up to tell me they'd found him.
Lesley - Ok, no probs, but if you change your mind the offer is there. I hear she didn't answer when the guy delivered Toby, so he's in the garden. - 2011-10-22 22:47 LesleyG
- Thanks, but we'll go and pick him up ourselves on Monday. I can't believe this has happened.
- 2011-10-22 22:43 snailmail
- Lesley, if you would rather he came back to somewhere else, I'm more than happy to help out I live on the planets estate in Leighton Buzzard, and I'm sure my boyfriend would get involved at his end, and bring him here for you. Just a thought, but you've probably got too many thoughts going on at the moment. My heart goes out to you and your family.
- 2011-10-22 22:43 Angus
- Oh Lesley I am so sorry - just the worst outcome and the one most feared - will light an candle for dear Toby xx
Big thank you to rail worker (Snailmail's OH) for recovering Toby so that the family will be able to lay him to rest Last edited: 2011-10-22 22:47:32 by Angus - 2011-10-22 22:41 CBC-dog warden
- I am so sorry to hear the bad news. My thoughts are with you.
- 2011-10-22 22:37 LesleyG
- Thanks to all of you. Toby is being sent to Evelyns house where she's expected to keep our little man safe until we can get him. She isn't aware this is happening. She won't answer her mobile or landline, and hasn't answered her door. I can't believe this has happened. I don't know what to say. Just thanks to everybody who tried, and someone who succeeded.

- If you haven't already, the out hours dog warden number for central beds is 08444828337, which also covers Aylesbury as well. If the dog is collected it will go to appledown kennels if found in the CBC area. If anyone hands in to Ark house they normally contact appledown straight away. Hope this info helps. Please also report to council mon morning on 0300 300 8000 as it is being covered as the normal dog warden is on annual leave.

- Thank you! We're going to call around the shelters local to the area tomorrow. We're not clear on who's been contacted (we thought Appledown had been contacted already) so we're going to call around everywhere we can think of tomorrow. The boarder has posted 250 leaflets/posters through doors, 20-odd have been posted on boards/lamp-posts/etc, and she's just printed another 300 to post through doors.
- 2011-10-22 20:22 Angus
- Have posted to my facebook pages & emailed poster to Ark House and posted on their facebook group, I presume that you have spoken to Appledown Rescue 01525 220383, they normally point people towards us and check site regularly

The boarder has gone out to put more posters/leaflets through some doors, and she'll continue the search tomorrow morning. Two days before we can come home to find Toby. COME HOME TOBY! xxxxx
