On facebook page Friends of Birkenhead Council Kennels have a dog handed in, in poor condition that looks so much like Mini, even the tooth but, doesn't seem old enough given that Mini was 12 when lost and this dog looks 12 now. Also no microchip but gosh they look so similar. http://www.fobk.org.uk/dogs/d2018292-not-known/?fbclid=IwAR0WeCw4itaXJpMSDbwJQu1EuxpzDC2_GkG_TCbwFO3TD02KlUmMidT0mJI

The finder of this dog has also been contacted by Mini's owner and has been unfortunately confirmed as not Mini.

2017-01-10 12:21 Baydogs

I'm texting the Finder to ask if the dog has been scanned etc

Says he'll check it out.

Later edit -Dog not chipped and finder feels unlikely to be Mini.
Sorry andrea.

Thank lesleyjane, I said the same thing to andrea today :)

andrea is doing a great job, local and surrounding area dog wardens have been notified, they have visited Manchester Dogs Home, reported to the police and notified the microchip company.

Both the family dogs were let into the garden which has 2 gates, both kept bolted at all times. Within a few minutes they went back into the garden to find the gate open and Mini gone. It is thought Mini was STOLEN as you can leave any door/gate open and she won't go through. They also said that if Mini had wandered, their other dog would definitely have followed as she thinks Mini is her Mum.

I have sent the info/advice email to andrea and spoke at length about making her 'too hot to handle' but to keep all other scenarios covered eg. contacted vets, visiting dogs homes etc.

Mini is an old girl and needs to be home with her family. If anyone is in the area, please spread the news far and wide. There is a reward offered for info leading to the safe return of Mini.

2012-08-18 12:34 lesleyjane

Owner, if not already done please poster everywhere, the more people who know about Mini the better. I f she has been stolen she must be made too hot to handle. Tell postmen, binmen, local cab firms etc. Glad to see she is chipped.

Great to see that you managed to register Mini with us. I'm out most of this morning but I will contact you later.

Sorry to see that MINI 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: (42216)
• 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.
• Contact dog wardens, vets and local rescue centres, and in Scotland, the Police. Give a detailed description with any distinguishing marks/scars or send them a copy of your DogLost poster. You can find vets in your area here.
• If your dog has been stolen inform the police immediately and obtain a crime reference number (CRN). Send an email to stolen@doglost.co.uk.
• If your dog is picked up and taken to rescue kennels, it can be legally re-homed after seven days. Visit rescue centres in person and do not rely on checking by phone alone. Other people may not recognise your dog by your description, so give them a DogLost poster.
• Keep us updated by keeping your dog's page up to date and check for posts from helpers who may have suggestions and possible matches or sightings
• DogLost is free and anyone asking for money to find or return your dog is not volunteering for us. If you are concerned about an approach you have received, please email admin@doglost.co.uk
