Spoke to owner tonight and the lady who had French Bulldog Sully actually took her first to their kennels and they knew about Sully and were able to give them advice. They told them to contact the Echo (gave them the telephone number) or get in touch with the Police.

THANKS a MILLION to the Lady and the Boston's owners for guiding them in the right direction. x

Online version of The Liverpool Echo coverage.

2013-02-26 19:05 DogLostMajorjet (Jan) - Area Co-ordinator - Liverpool/Merseyside, North West

I was contacted last week by The Liverpool Echo and again last night re doing a story on missing/stolen dogs. The coverage has gone in today's Liverpool Echo with headlines on the front page and a really good story. They have also covered stolen French Bulldog Sully ID 48741including a photo and the Stolen Boston's which is great, photo of the Boston's is on the online version which is not as detailed as the actual paper version.

Many thanks to the Liverpool Echo for covering dog theft and including help and advice on things to do to help prevent them going missing and being stolen.

Hope the coverage brings some news for Sully's family and the Boston's.

Thanks also to DL helper Lisa-Symonds who has helped greatly in getting the Liverpool Echo on board and kept us up to date. :) x

Good news that one boston is reunited, hopefully the other two will will be found soon.xx

2012-09-10 21:22 DogLostMajorjet (Jan) - Area Co-ordinator - Liverpool/Merseyside, North West

The three found Boston's belonged to another owner in the area. The stolen Boston's family located their owner. It was through their posters that helped reunite them which is great news for their owner who was very lucky to get the three of them back. They had accidently got out of the garden.

WELL DONE and THANK YOU to the finder and the stolen Boston's family for all they did to get them back with their family.

I've had an update from the stolen Boston's owner. Good news is the one in the photo that went missing approx 6 months ago has now been reunited. There is still two missing. x

Thanks AnnieSparky and shell195.

These girls are still missing, there has been no recent sightings of the one running around Pimbo Ind Estate. Posters are still getting taken down. Please keep looking out for them and sharing their details. Thanks. x

2012-07-27 20:58 shell195

I will get Steve to print some posters off and put them around the skate park behind me as Im only a few minutes away from Pimbo, he also works in Walkers in Pimbo so I will get him to put some up in work. The problem with Pimbo is it has so many paths leading to so many places and the moss road goes through to Rainford. Local kids are good at removing posters they have proved it in the past :( Once I have some printed I will put some up round the area. Do we have anymore info on where the dog was seen and how do I find out about the action group?

Helpers have reported that posters have been getting removed, don't think it is the Council!! x

Thanks again everyone who is helping look out for these girls you are all stars.

There are helpers finding contact details for as many companies they can to email poster and details. Not all companies have email address' on the net. DW's, vets, groomers and kennels etc are also being alerted. Great family got coverage in The Liverpool Echo which as we know is very hard to get. They have been advised to contact as many papers as possible in the area. x

2012-07-26 22:04 J MO

Been around Pimbo Industrial Estate tonight with Deb. The area is vast. Think the best idea is to email the poster to the companies on the Estate and get the details in the Ormskirk and Skelmersdale Advertiset

2012-07-26 18:46 AnnieSparky

Hi shell195......I didnt call at a farmhouse when searching on Wednesday but its def a good idea....to be honest am sorryI didnt even see the track :)
The Industrial site seems a big area with lots of outbuildings, sheds, yards, some offices.....was wondering if there was any more info where in the ind. park the Boston was seen. I think an action group has been formed but I didnt see anyone on wed when searching and just popped a few posters up. Have been trying to send the poster by email to some of the companies based there.x

Thanks Majorjet :)x

2012-07-26 17:42 shell195

Ive driven round Pimbo 3 times today and no sign, I did see a poster or 2 though. Has anyone called at the farmhouse down the track there?

Thanks J MO owner has been given details for the West Lancs DW, I did include him in the emailing I did the other night and also the Knowsley DW, others have posted that they have contacted DW's in the area/surrounding area.

I've now done the wallet size posters, will email out to owner and to others who are helping with the postering spreading the word and on the ground.

Thanks AnnieSparky for the excellent work you have been doing, sorry not replied tonight to your text do not get online until late on Wednesday's. :) x

2012-07-25 21:36 J MO

Has anyone contacted West Lancs Dog Warden? He may come out to look and had a dog trap if someone is willing to stay out with the trap

2012-07-25 20:20 Unknown

All xd for the safe return of this lovely Boston terrier. Make her "Too hot to handle"

2012-07-25 15:26 AnnieSparky

Had a drive through the industrial estate....its large area just off M58. Put a few posters up....might be worth emailing the companies there.
Hope they are found soon and back home safely.....hoping the injured pups are ok x

A Boston has been spotted running loose tonight on Pimbo Industrial Estate in Skelmersdale - if you live near by can you please look out for her. Looks like this is another one of the stolen Boston's.

Scenting Instructions emailed to owner and explained what to do if they see her. x

2012-07-24 22:39 DogLostJulie - Area Co-ordinator - Surrey & South London

So pleased to hear one of the stolen dogs has been found - I sincerely hope her eye injury is soon healed and here's to good luck finding the other two. Best wishes. Julie x

UPDATE posted by owner:

Result. Result. Result.

One of the 3 stolen bitches has just been returned; she was found running loose by a man in the Skelmersdale area. She has a very bad eye injury and will be receiving treatment. Please keep a watch for anyone with a new Boston bitch in this area as we feel sure the other 2 stolen bitches could be near by and now may be running loose. Thanks for all your support and an action group is being formed at this minute as this area will be getting blasted with posters until the 2 stolen bitches are found and we will not rest until they are.

Details posted on fb:

I need help in recovering my Boston Terrier show dogs stolen on Saturday morning and have reason to believe they may be in the Skelmersdale area. The top winning Boston Terrier puppy in the country, Wildax Augustus Brown, was badly injured ...in the burglary luckily managed to escape the robbers but three nine month old bitches were taken. The kennels are covered by CCTV and the CID have taken on the case. Also missing for 6 months, completely disappeared off the face of the earth, is top show bitch, Wildax The Go Go Dancer. Dancer, pictured below, last resided in Skelmersdale and unfortunately we now have no knowledge of her whereabouts. £2000 reward is offered for any information leading to the recovery of these four bitches and all information will be treated in the strictest confidence and reward paid in cash.

Sorry to see that BOSTON TERRIERS 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
• A photograph of your dog is essential for the website. If you have not already uploaded one, please do so by clicking on Update details. Alternatively you can email it to admin@doglost.co.uk quoting the dog's DogLost ID number: (41472)
• Obtain a missing poster by clicking on View poster above. Posters are very important so start postering now!
• You will need to be logged in to upload photos, edit your dog's details, or add comments. You can add comments by clicking on Click here to add a comment.
