Hi Paulio. Try to keep positive. (Easy to say I know) I dont live too far away from B24, and have posted. My husband and myself walk daily in nearby areas where many people walk their dogs. Will be keeping a good lookout, just in case. Paws and fingers xd.
B30
Paulio it's difficult with no leads to follow up and as it's gone quiet there's a good chance that someone has taken her in. Until you get something to go on all you can really do is to publicise her as much as you can. Keep posters up and are there any local papers/publications that you can get a small add and her photo in? If someone has her she's probably not that far away.
Paulio
No nothing it's all gone very quite. We think someone must have her. I can't image she would stay out loose for this long. We just not sure what to do now.
B30
Any more news on Roxy?
skippy
Sorry to hear this wasn't Roxy...hope she's home with you soon.
Paulio
Phone Birmingham dogs home but this wasn't Roxy. Still hoping she's safe. Thankyou for putting her in the countrymans weekly.

Advertised in this weeks Countryman's Weekly Magazine
Paulio
Thankyou lurcher lady. Thank you for the email sue it's very interesting information and hopefully I can us some of the ideas to help find her.
B30
Thanks for your help lurcherlady. Paulio, I've emailed you something to read about dogs movements when they're loose which will explain why there's been another sighting in the Station Road area.
lurcherlady
Nige has been to Coleshill today and took Djinn, one of our dogs who Roxy knows, he went round a few fields on both sides of the river but no sighting, I have shared this link with my brother who lives in Chelmsley Wood close to Coleshill. hope she is found soon.
Paulio
We had another phone call from a man in Coleshill who thinks he saw Roxy in a field close to station road Wednesday or Thursday last week. We have been over again tonight with our other dog Sophie and she seemed to pick up a scent and was very excited. We have postered local villages and hoping she is still close. We will head over again tomorrow.
B30
That's a good idea Paulio as she will recognise Sophie's scent so it may lure her back to that area.
Paulio
We have taken our other dog Sophie to the area laying her scent in the area but it's really hard working out which direction see headed off from after the last sighting. But we are going to continue taking sophie over and hope see is not far.
B30
It's a shame Paulio that no more sightings but it may be that she's spending time out of the heat. Did you get the info that I put on Facebook for Kirsty? If the area is fields it might be easier and safer to lay a scent.
Paulio
We have had a couple of days searching in coleshill and the fields around it, but no sighting of roxy and no response to the posters we put up. we are still hoping it was her and are going to poster the surrounding villages. There is also a river that runs through the town and snakes of into the fields, with the heat we are thinking she will stay close to water so we are following the line of the water and postering all aread we can get close.
Unknown
Really hope it is her, fingers crossed.
Paulio
We have had a good search tonight. Poster every where and spoke to local people. Hopefully she will be spotted again.

Possible sightings of Roxy in Station road near the Harvester Pub in Coleshill this morning. She was on her own running down the road towards the Harvester. This is about 7 miles from Pype Hayes Park where she went missing. Posters now up on Station Road. Last edited: 2012-07-23 21:14:38 by B30

Paulio
Is it possible to put alerts out a bit further a field in case she may have got a lot further than we orginal thought. As all the adverts we have placed so far in the area. Have had no feed back, which makes us think she may have got further.
caz
posted on facebook and twitter will keep eye out

My husband often drives very near to Pype Hayes Park, and he is going to keep a lookout. This park is only a few minutes drive from where we live. Have also posted. Good Luck
Paulio
Thank you. Going searching again today and placed adverts in two local news papers. Hopefully someone some where has seen her.

Thanks lurcherlady
lurcherlady
I have added to Lurcherlink
hope she is found safe soon x
DogLostRiverlady
still circulting on twitter have tweeted to Erdington locals.
B30
Paulio, if the park is well postered and you've had no one call with sightings someone may have picked her up and not taken her to be scanned so leaflets through letter boxes is a good idea.

Make sure that you keep in touch with the council in case she's been in a road accident because they don't always scan dogs.

Paulio
We are going to put posters thru as many doors as we can today in as wide area as we can. But worried as the days go on she is going to be impossible to find.
Paulio

Sorry to see that ROXY is missing.
  • If your dog is microchipped please let the microchip company know that your dog is missing and check that all details are up to date.
  • Owners targeted by a malicious hoaxer demanding money for the return of their dog should phone the police on 101 immediately and contact admin@doglost.co.uk
