I blocked it running off the slip road with the help of other cars and tried to follow it, thats when it ran into a farm drive across the road from Mossey Lea Lane just off the slip road,at the side of the motorway and was told it was running with another little terrier type dog. Rang police to report it straight away incase it got back onto the motorway.

Thanks scootjockey, i just know from previous times that some members of the public dont know there breeds very well. We had an Irish Wolfhound (vet put lurcher puppy?) At the moment Eric my dog is a Bedlington x English Bull Terrier and is only young but people say he looks an old dog lol ............... lets just hope these dogs find their way back home as i love happy endings x
scootjockey
Ive spoke to the lovely lady who sighted these dogs I just wanted to be sure it couldnt be Tay. She`s a dog lover/owner and knows her dog breeds and it was defo a Sheltie. Thankyou so much Erics mum x

My mind also goes to Princess, sable and white Sheltie not unlike Dusty. Went missing around two years ago from the Durham area. xx

Erics mum

Erics mum
There are loads of outbuildings as farm is quite big and the fields lead down to a garden centre called Golden Days but it was all locked up when i got there x
Erics mum

They said they will keep an eye out ...... also got exact details of address now ... Junction 27 M6 just of rounder/b going towards Parbold/ opposite side of the road to the BP garage is a road called Back Lane which is signposted Shevington and Appley Bridge ....

hi visionvalue my first thoughts were dusty i alerted dustys owners first thing and they have been to the area today with 2 more searchers, there was 2 dogs but the sheltie was trying to cross the mw slip road, i think this poor dog was in a major panick to try and cross the m6 on a really busy day i know the travellers are in wigan and travellers were around preston when dusty went missing
visionvalue
Could this be Dusty ?

mumstaxi
hi we have had 3 people in the area nothing as yet dog or dogs could be hiding,is there any chance on your way home you could call at the farm and leave contact details in case dogs appear again?highways keeping a look out but its a good job jo public care enough to help otherwise we would be stuck thanks for all your help
Erics mum
I was so frustrated also when i was trying all different emergency numbers and getting nowhere ! its always down to the lovely general public and its good to see so many people care and will actually stop ! will text you in a minute mumstaxi but struggling to chat as have clients coming in and out all day. i will have a drive down that way on the way home and see if i can sight the dog again or anyone from the farm to talk to.
mumstaxi
07934535543 my number have notified highways and they will keep an eye out disgusted that there is no one in authority to help in a situation like this everyone wants to pass the buck
Erics mum
put my mobile number in contacts for you as yours is incorrect (only 10 digits) I am at work till 6pm now .... nowhere near the farm as i work in Chorley. I could direct someone there though ?
mumstaxi
hi ericas mum, my number is 0793453554 its surprising where dogs turn up if this sheltie has previously been stolen it could have been dumped escaped or just lost and sadly as travellers are in wigan with the fair, we know they steal a lot of dogs so we cant ignore anything tried out of hours dog warden cant get through police wont help unless dog or dogs are actually on the motorway are you near to the area of just passing could do with help from the farm people really could you text your number to me if thats okay thanks
Erics mum
It was the lady at the farm that said she saw the other dog with it !! when it was running down the slip road it was on its own. I just hate seeing things like this but because i couldnt catch it do you still need my mobile number ? (never used this site before and dont know where i put it ?) Thanks mumstaxi ps i cant see it being the dog from Preston can you ? it just looked like it had been in a downpour but didnt seem injured just very scared
mumstaxi
hi ericas mum im just going to share this on fbook do you have a contact number? we have a sheltie missing from preston since august last year owners on going up tothe area soon do we have description of terrier also wondering if these have been dumped by travellers as they are or just have been in wigan thanks
Erics mum
Didnt ring local dog warden as every number i called seemed to be wrong, dont know whether someone else will have contacted them, I rang police but does anyone else have an emergency number for dog warden in that area ? just wish i could have done more and catch it !!
