Heidi - there is another dog missing not far from here that does have a stripe on her head Holly 42580 - have you seen her?

Does this dog have a White stripe on it's head..?

2012-07-31 17:56 Miss Marple

Just a one-off, but thought I may as well let you see this one: http://www.wirral.gov.uk/wirraldogs/Detail.asp?DogsID=7184

Do I understand that this poor boy went missing on the Coastal edge of the Lancashire-Cumbrian border, Morcambe Bay/Furness etc? Until I googled it I was under the impression that Bardsea was somewhere on the East Sussex Coast. Although you have described 'Where lost' location as Bardsea Estuary etc., I don't think many volunteers would easily recognise this as being in the NW region. However, I do hope that Encasa is found soon. I am posting him on FB here on Merseyside again, you never know, he may have hitched a lift down the M6? xx

2012-07-25 09:42 Pet SearchersJan.Petsearchuk

Any think is possible, it would be great if this is indeed Encasa...

2012-07-24 08:25 BB451 Kent co-ordinator

I'm admin on a couple of facebook doglost pages and one of my lot sent me this message...
The dog that keeps getting sighted and classed as a ginger looking GSD 41501 North East could it possibly be Encasa lost 39607 in the North West - only a long shot tho one NE one NW!!
hope this is a possible, would you be kind enough to check it out please? xx

2012-07-13 22:23 skippy

So very sad for you emma that after all your hard work, you have still had no sightings of your gorgeous boy. Hope this weeks advert brings a sighting!

2012-07-12 14:03 Bonnies' mum

Check 41159 on Found Dogs. May be a long shot but you never know

2012-07-04 16:47 emma d

Hi, we have another large advert going into the local paper tomorrow. We have searched tirelessly for the past 7 weeks but have not had one sighting of our special boy. The whole area has been saturated in posters, and with the help of friends we have made sure everyone is aware that he is missing....but no sightings at all. thank you for all your help and support xxx

2012-07-04 07:35 Pet SearchersJan.Petsearchuk

Encasa has recently been brought to my attention and I have circulated it on petsearch...good luck in your search for him.

2012-06-25 14:22 DogLostXenas Mum - Area Volunteer, Norfolk

Hi Jobadger there have been no positive sightings of Encasa :( On the positive side though poor Emma has trawled through all the dead bodies and skeletons in the area and Encasa is not amongst them!

2012-06-22 23:51 jobadger

Is there any idea where this boy might be now? I don't do FB.... xx

2012-06-21 21:45 DogLostXenas Mum - Area Volunteer, Norfolk

We could do with some twitter airing is Riverlady able to help?? Emma and Roy are working really hard to get Encasa back as are their friends, most updates are on his Facebook page. Fantastic advert in the Westmorland Gazette today!!Can we have a Bump???

2012-06-08 22:42 liz

Thankyou Jinny & Jan.

I do hope Encasa is found soon. It's summer and Morecambe Bay is a lovely area for him to be hiding out. The surrounding areas are great places for him to be sheltering. My love and best wishes to his owners who I know must be distraught like I am about my Ben.

If they want to talk to me, please pass on my details. I know what they are going through and can offer my support.

I'm feeling a bit stronger everyday so an offer a shoulder to cry on if they want to.

Thanks jinny for posting about the sighted dog, it was myself who uploaded the photo/s of it on DogLost. I knew it was not Ben or Encasa so did not alert anyone. I did liaise with Liz early yesterday morning and reassured her it was not Ben and gave her details of where to see the pics of the sighted dog. xxx

2012-06-08 16:51 jobadger

Hi
could anyone give an indication of where this latest possible sighting is - is there a suggested search area? I'm free all weekend and was thinking of coming across... xx

2012-06-07 21:51 jobadger

Thanks for the updated posters for Encasa. I do hope this latest possible sighting leads to something positive. I'll email the new posters to the vets in this area. xx

2012-06-07 11:42 jinny

hi liz i have been following your story about your lovely ben , i dont think this is ben sadly but the i.d number ( with pic ) for the dog sighted in New Brighton is 39933 have a look even if its just to put your mind at rest fingers crossed for you xxx

hi i realy dont like getting anyones hopes up but i checked the dog that was sighted in sandringham rd ,and it also mentioned Dudley Road New Brighton , my niece lives on Dudley road, so i have just phoned her up , she told me that about a week ago her partner went out of the door about 7.30 am and there was a sandy colourd dog asleep on there doorstep,he went back in the house for a minute ( he was,nt aware of any dog lost sadly) but when he came out the dog had gone , this seams to be the second sighting on Dudley rd , i hope i have done the right thing and please tell me if i havent but i told her if she see's him again not to call his name not to approach or even try to gain his trust yet, but just to simply place a regular bowl of food and water out each night at a certain time ,so that the dog gets to know a regular time to go thre ,i told her not to be seen by the dog just let him feel safe in knowing there is a regular time and place to get a food and water sauce , i hope i have given her the right advice , also this dog has been sighted many times around that area and there is a sight on facebook called Wirral fleebay , my niece and sister are admen on there , and everyboby knows about this dog and there seams to be a lot of people out looking for him , i think it would be a good idea to get posters up in New Brighton station as this is very close to the area where this dog seams to be roaming . im sorry for the long post but just hope this has helped

2012-06-07 03:59 liz

I do hope Encasa turns up soon. I moved from Morecambe 2 yrs ago and know it well & I know what you are going through. xx

There has been a possible sighting in Morecambe. Would it be possible to resend posters out to helpers in areas previously sent plus those in the Morecambe, Lancaster, Heysham area? Thanks.

2012-05-31 15:41 Bonnies' mum

Have emailed posters to several campsites in South Cumbria

2012-05-31 09:48 Gillian

Hi just seen that I've been emailed posters but haven't received them so perhaps you have got the wrong email. In fact I haven't been getting any posters for local missing dogs and there have been one or two recently. My email is the one starting gilliwigs!

2012-05-31 09:36 Coco Pops

This is a real longshot but I'd rather it be checked just in case. There's a dog been sighted only 39933 which is being described as a german shepherd wearing a red collar, nervous and can't be caught. It's near Liverpool so a bit further down than where Encasa was lost but could have been dropped there. The only thing is the pictures of the sighted dog look darker than Encasas fur but after 2 weeks he could be dirty. Can someone pls check.

2012-05-30 18:15 Paula Marie

Email sent to Westmorland Wildfowlers Association with link to Encasa page.
Fingers crossed and hope there is good news soon.

Thank you Jan, I have downloaded the posters and will circulate when I am in the area on Saturday (hopefully Encasa will be home safe by then). I live near Manchester but will put a poster in my car too you never know somebody may be going in that direction and will look out for Encasa.

2012-05-30 08:14 jobadger

I've circulated Encasa's poster to all vets in Ambleside, Barrow, Broughton, Grange over Sands, Milnthorpe, Ulverston and Windermere. xx

You can now also follow Encasa on Twittet @FindEncasa

2012-05-29 15:01 DogLostGlynafon

I lived and went to school at Ulverston Grammar school many years ago so know the area well. Would suggest that if someone could poster Birkrigg common where many people walk their dogs and not far from Bardsea it would help to spread the word. I am now in SW wales so cannot help.

2012-05-29 09:07 jobadger

I had so hoped this boy would be home by now. Stay safe gorgeous until you're found..... xx

2012-05-29 07:34 Polly

The Bay Horse in Ulverston is a very dog friendly place they may put a poster up for you so that their guests can keep a look out. I am too far away at the moment but will be travelling to the lakes at weekend for a 2wk holiday. I promise I will make a detour on Saturday to the area and then go back as much as I can during my holiday. I know what pain you are going through and will do all I can to help. I pray that he will be found safe and well very soon. x

2012-05-29 00:21 DogLostJackalee (Kathryn) - Area Co-ordinator - Greater Manchester

Encasa is in todays Westmorland Gazette. The family are now offering a substantial reward and a luxury holiday for any information leading to Encasa's whereabouts.

Great that you have set up a Facebook page. Keeping my fingers crossed that it all brings some good news soon :)

2012-05-26 12:00 SuzeeBee

Just watched the tribute Xenas Mum added to this page. I am in bits to think that you have lost your beautiful very special boy. Wishing you all the luck in the world for some news very soon, wish I were closer to help. xx

Facebook page now set up for Encasa

So hope you get a sighting this weekend Emma, you, Roy and Encasa are constantly in my thoughts x

2012-05-26 01:30 terri9090

There is a cross bay walk this weekend hopefully it brings a sighting

2012-05-25 22:12 DogLostXenas Mum - Area Volunteer, Norfolk

Just so everyone on here knows just how much Encasa means to Emma this is the tribute she made for him after they had been together one year, that was just over a year ago!

Hi i live in ulverston and i walk down to the bay horse nearly everyday i have been looking out across the bay for him. if there is any other way i can help please let me know x

2012-05-24 19:14 emma d

Hi, Encasa's mum here. thanks for all your suggestions and support. There have been no sightings at all, its nearly a week:((( There is an article in the Evening Mail tonight. It is absolute torture, he had such a terrible life, and has blossomed so much into such a happy dog. We need him home :((

2012-05-24 17:01 drwolfuk

If I was closer I would bring my Ibizan Hound Menta and Greyhound Merlin as I am certain encasa would come with them. Merlin is excellent at seeking out lost dogs. Is there not someone in that area with a Spanish Hunting Hound that is okay of the lead and can search for Encasa. These dogs are ideal for looking after themselves in the wild which they had to do in Spain where they are not treated as pets and are dumped as soon as the hunting season is over.

2012-05-24 14:11 Caroline28

thanks migman - I have contacted them and sent them a poster asking to keep an eye out.

2012-05-22 23:04 DogLostJackalee (Kathryn) - Area Co-ordinator - Greater Manchester

Thank you SuzeeBee for posting the link, I was sure I had done it but think I had a magic moment xx

2012-05-22 20:40 migman34

This may sound strange but there is a staffordshire bull terrier rescue place near Ulverston. Not sure how close it is but thought you could also contact them to ask while they are walking the dogs to keep an eye out. web address is http://www.sbtrescue.org.uk/index.htm

2012-05-22 17:47 Unknown

I am praying for him. My friends dog Amber went missing there 4 years ago:(((

emma d, well done for the article in the Westmorland Gazette, it looks great and I really hope it brings you some good news.

I've bumped Encasa due to the article.

2012-05-22 07:06 ejm

I'm still looking out for him, driving the coast rd to & from work each day as well as walking my dogs on beach when I can. Have u tried to get something in the Evening Mail? This will reach many more people than the posters, especially if he has travelled a distance with the tide.

I shared on FB as soon as he was listed as lost. Keep postering and contacting anywhere where you feel posters/phone calls might help. I'm from Liverpool so too far away to help but my thoughts are with yourself and your beautiful dog. Let's hope he's home really soon xx

2012-05-21 12:58 sillyhound

Come on Encasa, time to come home, all of your extended family are waiting to hear good news today! XXX

2012-05-21 12:12 Lurcher SOS

So sorry Emma to hear Encasa has gone missing. Big hugs for you and never give up hope he will be found. Its on our forum and FB page and other have put it on their FB pages too. Thinking of you and Roy. Laurie

2012-05-21 11:25 Chris

Emma, I'm so sorry to hear Encasa missing and have been sharing and re-sharing on FB since I saw it on Saturday; sadly too far away to help look. I guess you've already thought of everything, but will add this anyway - are there any local airfields and/or helicopter hire/training places you could contact and leave posters with, in hope they can look out for him too. Thoughts with you and your helpers; safe home soon Encasa x

2012-05-21 11:03 Mugsy

Come on home Encasa, everyone is missing you as you are a very special boy.

Please do not approach this dog if you see him, he is very nervous thanks to his past, please phone the number.

Shared on my Facebook - I live in LA13.
Have everything crossed that Encasa is found safe and sound soon x

2012-05-21 10:19 Caroline28

We have had the sighting reported on Twitter checked out and it is unlikely this was Encasa. As far as we know there have been no sightings. As Encasa crossed the estuary, then the tide came in he could be anywhere. If he got caught up in the incoming tide the coast guard reports that most dogs tend to survive. However this is a vast area, owner has amazing helpers spreading the word and covering a huge amount of ground, if anyone else can spread the word that would be amazing. Encasa is a special rescue dog who is very nervous of people and his owners have done a super job with him.

Willing for a sighting today ... Come on Encasa... Show yourself xxxx

Also perhaps ask them at the Buddhist centre to keep an eye out and give them number to call. Early risers are likely to see him more.

2012-05-19 19:32 Irene

Have Inland Rescue been informed? They have a base by Glaxo towards the canal.

2012-05-19 19:16 lurcherlouts

have forwarded info to cousin who runs B+B in Silecroft nr Millom-probably too far away,but she may know someone over that way-hope he is found safe soon. all the best Lurcherlouts

2012-05-19 12:27 ejm

Just had a walk from Priory Point along beach to Bardsea but didn't see him. There is a Buddhist festival on at the Priory with lots of people wandering around the grounds & the beach & these people do seem to be around early morning & later at night ... Might be worth some posters around that area

It is VERY IMPORTANT thaat if anyone sees him they do not approach him but phone the number and report where he is. Encasa is a rescue dog and extremely nervous of strangers if approached HE WILL RUN.

2012-05-19 08:29 ejm

I'm in Ulverston & have shared on facebook. I'll keep my eyes peeled when walking my dogs. Hope he's home soon
