- Advertised in this weeks Countryman's Weekly magazine.

- Got the photos blackworm and have also attached the two dogs that skippy is referring to (thanks!)

- There are a couple of black and white lurchers on the new strays page that Leigh dogs home have, both picked up in the St Helens area.
http://www.leighdogsandcatshome.co.uk/straydogphotos.html
The first (St Helens ref 1841) has too much white on the face to be Bess I think - the second (St Helens ref 1798) I think probably has too much white on the front paw, but you might want to take a look for yourself.
Hope Bess is back with you soon.x - 2012-07-29 01:41 blackworm
- Susan,i have forwarded you the only 2 pictures i have,thanks very much for your help,and everyone else.
- 2012-07-28 17:51 B30
- Blackworm, have you got a better picture of Bess? If so can you email it to me and I'll get her an advert in The Countryman's Weekly magazine.

- Can you checK thE st Helens star. Article and picture of a lurcher found dumped doesn't say if male or female. Dog had been stabbed but is making a good recovery and is now in Leigh cats n dogs home x
- 2012-07-25 19:04 blackworm
- Thanks for that Benj,it isnt her though!
She has got a white flash on her chest.
A little bit more info,the man seen putting her in the people carries is discribed as jocky like,short slim build,he was also seen in the area 2 week before with another man,in the same vehicle.Last edited: 2012-07-25 19:05:29 by blackworm - 2012-07-25 11:58 Benjielad
- No mention of white chest so this probably isn't her but thought i'd put this on for checking: Katie at Hyndburn Strays in Need: http://www.hyndburnstraydogsinneed.co.uk/index.php?menu=strays

- This seems very unlikely, but is there any chance Bess could have been mistaken for a 'Dark Brown Whippet'? There was a post on the 'Lost and Found dogs Preston and fylde areas' facebook page on 17th July as follows:
Ribbleton, Preston... Dark brown Whippet, very friendly, found wandering on Ribbleton Avenue today contact Andy 07922 109933

Bit of a stretch I know, but it may be worth trying to get her details posted on that facebook page anyway. Hope she turns up soon.x - 2012-07-21 21:29 blackworm
- Thanks Jayne.
