- yes he will be chipped asap. he was origionally my sisters dog-who didnt get him chipped and we havent had him long. they told us he` was insured and that they would pay it. but when he went missing we asked them to call the insurance as we were covered for advertising and reward. but hey ho they wernt paying the insurance and didnt care that gizmo was missing!! il never forgive them for it and now hes home safe theres no way he will be going anywhere again x

- Good to chat to you earlier Claire. I went back to the park again later around 3pm before I left the area. I stood for a while and scanned over the Rover East Works ground in case he was in there as I think it is possible that the little chap could get through the railings. Sadly nothing to see. As I mentioned earlier it is early days yet and please keep hopeful as they can turn up weeks, even months later. I am back in the area middle of the week but I dearly hope he is home with you all by then xxx.

- Thanks to Ei and Sharon for your help today. We didn't find Gizmo but a lot more people know about him now. I put a poster inside the Village Hall on the notice board as there may be a NYE party in there tonight.

- I've put 2 posters at the entry to the path leading from the end of Chestnut Drive into the fields - one on the poo bin and one on the gate, and I gave DogLost cards to 3 dog walkers I bumped into there and told them about Gizmo and the posters. I haven't posted any flyers - I plan to take them with me on walks in the area and hand them to anyone I can. Try to keep, positive, Claire. I know it must be really hard. x
- 2011-12-31 14:36 claire
- Weve got posters all around cofton for him and local shops and vets etc. I think someone has stolen him :-( if anyone has posted any flyers please could you let me know where they have been posted so that i know whwre to start next. Thank uou xx
- 2011-12-31 12:44 Sharongolfer
- I didnt see Gizmo. I walked the bottom half of the park and up Grovely Lane but nothing. I think I would do some door knocking around the park and get people to check their gardens.
- 2011-12-31 10:56 claire
- Any news or updates anyone?? Going out of my mind :'-(
- 2011-12-31 06:53 claire
- Thank you, we have spoken to the security guards of the building sites so they are all aware. Thanks again for your help xx
- 2011-12-30 22:35 Beaglemum
- I am coming up to B'ham tomorrow for a few hours so will have a look around. If there is any building work going on at the old Rover East Works tomorrow it would be worth going over there to have a word with the workers.I have just emailed Gizmo's poster to my niece who walks her dogs in Cofton Park most days.Keep safe little one xxx.

- Have put Gizmo on twitter + will circulate.
- 2011-12-30 19:06 Eileen
- Cofton Park is very large - I realise Gizmo may have run a way, but can the owner say whereabouts he went missing as that might help to start with. Cofton Park is very popular for dog-walking, and for football games - especially at the weekend, so any contacts with amateur football leagues locally might help. Hope he's home soon.
- 2011-12-30 18:50 Jayne - Founder Doglost.
- Poster emailed to helpers in B31,45,48,60,61.
- 2011-12-30 18:29 B30
- Have changed where lost to Cofton Park as never heard of a Coston Park, will confirm with owner.
Lots of places and undergrowth for a little dog to hide out there, hopefully he's in the bushes. If not a very popular dog walking park so someone may have picked him up. Lots of posters in case his collar has come off.
Details put on Facebook pages Central, West Mids Shrops & Staffs and Hereford & Worcs
