Poppy has been checked by the vet and given a clean bill of health. She's lost 3 kilos so we're feeding her little and often. We had so many sightings of her that we knew the area she was in and kept going back. We cooked some liver in the open and left some strips of my torn up t shirt so she'd know I'd been there. Something worked and she came back. There was also a man with a spaniel puppy which was squeaking and may have attracted her. Whatever it was, they managed to get hold of her. She seems to have looked after herself very well. It is impossible to thank everyone who helped individually, so a huge thank you to Dog Lost and everyone who cared.

Just had a call from a member of the public that says on the 13th he saw some cars stopped holding onto a black labrador and using their mobile phones. He is going to call owner directly.

Really good news Poppy has been seen in the area. I have posted on Norfolk and Suffolk Facebook group asking if there is anyone in the area that could help search for her.
Stay safe Poppy you should be home by now lovely girl xxx

2011-12-19 12:50 jobadger

I hope this old lady's home soon - not the weather for elderly girl to be out on her own. xx

2011-12-19 10:22 Ruthe

Poppy's owner telephoned me this morning, she is still straying but alive and in the Thorpe area, spotted in Thunder Lane and in Pinebanks.

2011-12-17 13:24 DogLostHelen - Regional Co-ordinator - Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridge

Ruthe thank you for offering to help with Poppy. It is probably best if you contact the owner direct and she can explain or show you where Poppy was last seen. (Owner's number is on the posters.)

2011-12-17 13:13 Ruthe

Can you tell me exactly where she was last seen? I want to go there with my little blind dog Toby, he is good at smelling and hearing other dogs even when they are not visible. But I need to home in on the most likely area.

What a shame, and in this weather too. Having lost an oldie recently overnight I can imagine how the owners feel. Hope she is soon back in the warm. Details on easterndogscene.
