No its not, I have been to see it and the lady did not know what to do so I took a picture and posted it on here and on facebook. Thank you anyway x

2012-06-19 17:10 DogLostSherlock Bones Police Liaison Co-ordinator

could this be her? There's been a black female Labrador found on the road between marham and narborough. No collar/tag but has been taken in. If she belongs to you or someone you know please contact Lesley on 07876 298631.

2012-06-03 13:07 B30

She may still be around Michele. People may just not have seen her and not everyone will report a sighting even if they have. Make sure your posters are still up, the more posters the better chance of sightings which will give you a better idea of her movements.

Michelle don't loose heart. We found Mabel after 8 days on the run in the middle of nowhere. When we found her there had been no sightings for days. We just kept going to the area she had been seen in every day, walking it, leaving food, having a wee (I know but we were told it might help!). We were trying to pinpoint a place to have a smelly bbq to try to coax her out when I found her (well Maggie lab did) in a copse of trees resting. Plot where she was sighted with where you last saw her. I was told they move in a triangle. And just keep on going, don't give up. Get the postman on board, local gamekeepers, anyone. If by chance anyone has taken her in the more the word is spread the hotter she will get also. I do know what you are going through xx

2012-06-01 19:37 Michele

Thank you everyone, but there has been no more sightings since the other day. Have walked miles round and round but nothing and no one seems to have seen her again :-(

2012-06-01 09:20 Lankeela

Going over this way today so will take dogs for a walk round there and keep an eye out.

2012-05-30 08:51 DogLostHelen - Regional Co-ordinator - Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridge

There is a fresh appeal going out on Radio Norfolk today due to these new sightings. Michele has already been out and put new posters up in the area.
The people who saw the dog near their house last night are hopefully going to leave food out for her and Michele will be leaving Lexi's blankets too.
Come on Lexi it's time you were back home xxx

2012-05-30 08:44 DogLostHelen - Regional Co-ordinator - Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridge

Thanks Lankeela x

2012-05-29 23:35 Lankeela

I know someone who lives at West Acre, not far from here, I'll mention it and get her to keep an eye out.

2012-05-29 18:46 DogLostHelen - Regional Co-ordinator - Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridge

This is really good news Michele, praying this is your girl xxx
Take some really smelly food with you like tripe or pilchards and remember if you are close enough to her throw some food and then you back off, let her come to the food,(you may have to do this a few times to gain her confidence) Crouch low to the ground, with no eye contact and sometimes soft whimpering sounds and gently crying will make her want to come to you xxx

2012-05-29 18:34 Michele

We have had a positive sighting in Castle Acre, which is next village along from Swaffham. A lady saw my poster in the back of the car and stopped me. She saw a young black lab bitch up by the castle ruins on her own and spoke to it, the collar was missing but she described as a small young lab and that her fur was 'Squiggly' on her bum, she was very hungry as she was eating scraps but came to say hello to her and then when she drove off she went back to eating scraps! She kicks herself now for not picking her up. Have been up and had a good look around and put up posters. A very kind lady has taken some posters and is going to ask around at school tomorrow and around her doggy friends. Fingers crossed............ am going back out after dinner x

2012-05-26 20:08 Michele

Thank you James for getting back to me. I have done a load of new posters so will drop one into Splashes on Monday when I see someone. I have been in there a few times for work and never had a problem with them. I have driven up and down this road too and never seen one and some friends work in Waitrose too. Thank you

2012-05-25 23:02 GuardianJam

Hi. Sorry about the delay, I have been at work.

The dog was with two children walking towards waitrose.

I have been driving past the road everymorning since. That was the last time I have seen the dog. I must admit that there are more dogs than usuall in the site now. Some which I haven't seen before. Jack Russel Terriers.

I shall keep you updated. Maybe worth putting some posters up around swaffham.

I personally wouldn't go onto the site as they are a rough bunch. But as I said., I will keep an eye out for you all.

James

Michele I have asked GuardianJam for more details on this dog seen around the Fakenham Road. He will either post on here or let me know x

2012-05-23 20:07 Stephanie

Might be worth checking the traveller's site? They may have taken her in if she's been straying? xx

2012-05-23 11:17 Michele

Are we able to get any more info from GuardianJam regarding the sighting? Thank you

2012-05-23 10:47 B30

Advertised in this weeks Countryman's Weekly magazine.

2012-05-23 09:53 DogLostHelen - Regional Co-ordinator - Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridge

Lexie is featured on page 4 of Swaffham and Watton times today!
Hopefully this will bring us some news xxx

2012-05-22 19:36 DogLostJayne - Founder Doglost.

Great news...good luck...

2012-05-22 18:46 Michele

The TBW rang this afternoon, I have emailed over some pics and spoken to a reporter. She should be on page 4 in tomorrows edition

2012-05-22 16:31 Michele

Hi GuardianJam, was this sighting of a dog on its own or was it with someone in Swaffham?

2012-05-22 14:13 Unknown

well hopefully it is one of them...maybe get hold of the dog warden and also put up photos of both dogs.......could also maybe go and ask the travellers they may just be feeding a lost Labrador.......

2012-05-22 14:06 Lankeela

Could this possibly be Trudy missing from Fakenham?

2012-05-22 14:00 GuardianJam

Hi Guys! I've only just seen this! There is a dog similar to Lexie that is in the Swaffham area! Last Seen: Along the Waitrose Swaffham - FAKENHAM Road.

I will keep an eye out and if I see Lexie again I shall let someone know either here or police.

There is a travellers park nearby..

Seen: 21/05/2012 at 4pm aprox.

Still circulating on twitter.....

2012-05-21 15:01 Stephanie

Hi - The TBW (Watton and Swaffham Times) will hopefully be running a piece this Wednesday for Lexie :) - will let you know more details when I get them. xx

2012-05-12 10:15 AshabumbleB

Awww, Michele, still no news. Sorry to hear it lovely, but she may come back yet, some of the stories on the reunited board are remarkable....all fingers and toes crossed that she does make it back home x x

2012-05-09 20:42 Michele

2012-05-09 20:01 Unknown

2012-05-09 10:34 Michele

No unfortunately the sighting was on the Sunday morning, she had just seen the posters yesterday so rang to say what she had seen

2012-05-09 10:04 DogLostJayne - Founder Doglost.

Was the sighting last night or ealier...bumped due to sighting.

2012-05-09 09:29 Michele

Have had a positive sighting from a lady who rang last night to say she saw her on the South Pickenham Road and then when she went to catch her she trotted off down a dirt track.Described her exactly and even her collar. Have done loads more posters and flooded all dog walking areas down there so hopefully someone may have taken her in........

2012-05-08 07:51 Michele

Stibbard is in Norfolk, just off the main Fakenham to Norwich road. A young black lab was seen on the back road from Stibbard thru to the Guist-Swanton novers road. apparently there was also two 4x4 vehicles in the area which the people looked nervous when asked about the dog and drove off

2012-05-07 21:50 DogLostJayne - Founder Doglost.

Where is Stibbard please...

2012-05-07 21:40 Michele

I have had word that there has been a sighting of a young black lab running through fields and across roads round the Stibbard area. Please anyone local to that area, keep a look out, thank you

2012-05-06 17:26 Michele

Thank you everyone. I have contacted the local vets emergency no. but have not heard anything and a couple of local rescue centres and kennels. My friends have copied and pasted onto their facebook pages too. Friends have also circulated posters further afield too. Fingers crossed, trouble is she is sooooo frinedly she would go and talk to anyone!!

2012-05-06 13:24 DogLostHelen - Regional Co-ordinator - Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridge

I have spoken to the owner and they were then on their way out to poster the area. They have only had Lexie about a week so she would not be that familiar of the area. The Dog Warden has been notified and owner's will be contacting vets in the area on Tuesday when they are open after the Bank Holiday.
I will E-mail General Information including contact numbers for vets in the area.
I have added Lexie's details to Dog Lost Norfolk and Suffolk facebook group and other groups local to the area.
Stay safe Lexie until you are found xxx

2012-05-06 11:09 DogLostHelen - Regional Co-ordinator - Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridge
