It is now nearly a year since Dancer disappeared from Lodmoor, Weymouth whilst on a walk. A group of people will be meeting tomorrow at Mcdonalds in Weymouth at 9.30.a.m. They plan to re advertise and talk to the public and holiday makers to make them aware that Dancer is still missing. Anyone wishing to help please turn up. There is now a £2000 reward for safe return of Dancer or info leading to her return. She could still be in the Weymouth area or equally, now be anywhere in the UK. Dancer is approaching 3 years old now and her coat probably is longer than her photo shows. Do you know anyone who has acquired a papillon since 16 September 2012? Could they unknowingly have Dancer? Please if anyone knows anything at all that could help call get her home to her rightful owner please call 0781 348 8164.

Owner of Dancer arranged for Natural Instinct to help in this way. She also spent time at Crufts putting up posters, giving out cards, and making people aware she is still missing and much wanted safely home. It is believed Dancer is with someone, a phone call was received shortly after she went missing saying to stop looking for her, that she was safe and well.!! She will NEVER stop looking,and will keep on searching for ever until we find her. Dancer is microchipped so with luck one day she will be scanned and returned to rightful owner.

Hoping the press coverage helps Dancer get home for Christmas...

2012-12-22 19:06 DogLostAngus

bumped for the press coverage - wishing that the owners will get some news

2012-12-22 18:50 Spindle

Another appeal for Dancer today in the Dorset Echo. If anyone knows anything please do not hesitate to call. Owner is desperate for her return and reward still stands.

2012-11-30 11:55 Spindle

Article today in the Dorset Echo offering £1000 reward for safe return of Dancer. Hopefully this will bring the calls we need to get her home for christmas.

2012-11-28 11:30 Pet SearchersJan.Petsearchuk

I can't believe there are no regular updates about this little Papillon, she has to be somewhere, someone must have seen her since 23rd October....

2012-11-18 07:24 Pet SearchersJan.Petsearchuk

I so wish this little Dancer could be found quickly, she must be so cold & lonely at nights now. Come on Dancer we want you home now, you've had far too much freedom.....

2012-11-07 19:22 Spindle

Updating at request of owner. Dancer was seen by 3 people in Weymouth on Tuesday 23 October between about 7.30pm and 8pm approximately in the Kitchener Road and Corporation Road and Longcroft road. After a very short delay her owners were there but could not find her. Despite street searching and another 4000 leaflets, she is still not home.
Do you know anyone that has recently acquired a Papillon, perhaps bought unwittingly through an advert or word of mouth - could they unknowingly have Dancer? She is a very loved dog and owners desperate to find her. PLEASE DO NOT TRY TO CATCH HER, JUST CALL 0781 348 8164 and we will come immediately.
There is a reward for Dancer's safe return or information leading to her safe return.

2012-11-06 09:13 Pet SearchersJan.Petsearchuk

I have recirculated it amongst my petsearch contacts. Come on home Dancer, you must be so cold and scared of the fireworks etc.

2012-11-03 17:15 Spancoluki

Come on Dancer, time to come home xxx

2012-11-01 07:48 Yettontop

Well done to all those still searching tirelessly for this little one. We have to get her back home and out of the cold. Wish I was closer to be able to help. I know her owner will NEVER give up looking for her, and has offered a substantial reward for information leading to her return. Please work the networks you have - internet or real - to get her back home where she belongs. She is already on FB, but I'm not sure about other social networking sites.

2012-10-29 19:28 Spindle

Dancers details been put out on Wemouth hospital radio stations today, and repeated regularly. Lets hope calls come in.

2012-10-29 09:25 Spindle

All sighting been followed up to no avail, an immediate call when seen would be great help. Another article ow page 14 of the Echo. There cant be anyone in that area who is not aware of her missing. Over 12,000 leaflets and flyers not done and distributed. We Need to find Dancer before it gets very cold and especially before Nov. 5th!!..

2012-10-25 10:19 DogLostAngus

Large article this morning in the Dorset Echo again. Bumping.

2012-10-24 12:27 DogLostAngus

just had a call from Spindle who is helping with the search - SIGHTED this morning laying on grass near Link Road, PLEASE if you see her call the numbers above - DANCER is very SCARED and will RUN AWAY - we do not want her running into traffic

If she is very scared of people, maybe she has a hiding place in the cemetery somewhere.

2012-10-23 22:14 Spindle

Plan is to keep Dancer in a safe area where she feels safe and is not chased. Her movements are being monitored and plotted. Please call above number if any sightings whatsoever. We need this little one home.

2012-10-23 21:13 DogLostPoochpal - Regional Co-ordinator - South West - Police Liaison Team

Please let her be found now. If only she could be shut into a garden or any safe place till the right people can get ther!. If seen DO NOT CHASE or even call her. Stay calm and quiet and try to gently guide her into an enclosed place, call the number above watch where she is. If you have any food drop tiny pieces on the ground. Stay safe Dancer.

2012-10-23 20:59 TracyB

She has now been spotted again in Holly Road, Weymouth. She has run a long way in a short time already. Please stay safe and let us catch you Dancer..xx

2012-10-23 20:14 CrazyK9s

URGENT! Dancer has been spotted NOW! Corporation Road, Weymouth, near the cemetery. Please if anyone is nearby can you go and look. Unfortunateely they chased her and she ran. Please help! Traffic very busy around there. I am so worried she will be hit..

2012-10-19 10:45 Spindle

Brilliant Blackmore Vale, quarter page article all about missing Dancer, praying it bring the calls we need to get her home.Owners doing masses to find her.

2012-10-17 09:14 Spindle

Owners still very active in search for Dancer. Information on her being lost being sent out all the time across the country. Dancer has to be somewhere.

2012-10-10 13:45 DogLostAngus

Bumped due to media.

2012-10-10 08:44 Spindle

Huge article in the Dorset Echo yesterday. Lets hope it brings in calls. Lots being done in the search for Dancer, owner will not give up until she is found and home.

2012-10-08 20:02 DogLostAngus

Bumping due to being on radio Wessex FM. Hope this bring calls.

2012-10-08 17:29 Yettontop

Just can't believe that Dancer has been returned yet, despite a substantial reward. I'm assuming that the travellers' network has been informed - they are usually pretty good at recovering dogs that have rewards on them. (No offence intended, just that they have a very effective network.)

2012-10-04 10:24 DogLostAngus

Bumping due to media.

2012-10-04 10:13 Spindle

Large advert today in the Dorset Echo on page 14. Thousands of leaflets have been put through doors, and hundreds of posters are now on display. We believe there is a strong possibiity that she may have been taken in by someone, perhaps mistaken as a stray because her coat is out of condition. She is on a special diet and may need vet treatment. Owner is distraught and heartbroken over her missing dog and will never give up loooking for her. If anyone knows anything please call.

2012-09-30 09:46 DogLostPoochpal - Regional Co-ordinator - South West - Police Liaison Team

thank you to everyone who helped with the leaflet drop yesterday and to all those who are looking out for Dancer. A large area is now covered with posters but still more will be going up in the next few days. Remember that there is a large reward for her safe return.

2012-09-28 21:38 wensmum

This lady http://www.k9searchdog.org/ Sam on 07721597926 has hounds trained to track lost dogs. She is based in SW may be able to help?

2012-09-28 21:07 DogLostPoochpal - Regional Co-ordinator - South West - Police Liaison Team

Jacks and I walked around the area this morning, Dancer could be anywhere from hiding in a garage or shed to being on the nature reserve. It is a massive task so if anyone is free at tomorrow (Saturday) please meet at Southdown Avenue at 10.00.

2012-09-28 20:22 DogLostAngus

bumped for being in the dorset echo again today on page 3

2012-09-27 10:18 Spindle

Further leaflet drops being arranged over next few days. Owners doing absolutely everything possible to find this much loved dog. Hopefully all this and the advertising will bring the result needed.

Crossposted from the Facebook page:

HELP REQUIRED - Ok well there was maybe a sighting of 2 young girls walking a pap after dark in the area where Dancer was lost. May be a wild goose chase again but we hope not. Anyway I wondered if anybody had any time on Saturday to put leaflets through doors. We want to get people in pairs and give them specific roads to cover which would include putting the leaflets through, replacing the
posters and talking to anyone you see. I know it is a lot to ask and I am so sorry for doing so. If you can help please can you email lostpapindorset@gmail.com
The time to meet is 10am till maybe 2pm and the address is Southdown Avenue, Weymouth, DT3 6HS. Please share far and wide. Thank you all so much for caring about one little very scared papillon.

2012-09-24 20:35 DogLostAngus

The search is still continuing in the Weymouth area.

2012-09-23 21:36 pixies peeps

Message from owner via facebook message" It was only a long shot she could be in Bournemouth. Please don't only look for her in that area. it could well be that she is still in the area where she went missing.If we could please change the Bournemouth comment so that helpers in the local areas to lodmore,Nr Weymouth realise she could still be there and carry on searching for her there."

2012-09-23 10:51 Spindle

Just spoken to search party, there is a strong believe that Dancer has been picked up and is 25 miles east of Ludmoor, which would place her in the Bournemouth area...if there is anyone free in this area that can help or post posters they would really appreciate it plus any ideas thanks

2012-09-22 10:21 DogLostJayne - Founder Doglost.

Good luck today in your search.

2012-09-22 09:18 DogLostPoochpal - Regional Co-ordinator - South West - Police Liaison Team

Anyone free to join the search, meet at the Rugby Club at 10.00 or just come along to the area when you can to join in. Dancer is easily frightened so please stay calm and quiet if you see her and call the above number ASAP. She will also stay hidden if other dogs are about that she does not know. Bumped due to search.

2012-09-21 19:17 Talacae

There are several of us going to try and search for Dancer tomorrow, will also be taking her pup down again so if there is anyone available to help, all will be gratefully received

2012-09-18 13:56 Liz Carter

Dawn, thinking of you - I have contacted St Giles Kennels in Taunton who take any/all dogs for whole of Somerset. They are distributing this page to all their volunteers etc and will keep in touch. Also contacted Dorset/Somerset area Sheepdog and gundog contacts etc.... fingers crossed.

2012-09-18 09:24 Tiga

A friend has messaged me about Dancer and wants to know if there is a tracker dog in the area.

2012-09-18 08:53 Yettontop

Dawn, your agility friends are doing all they can to spread the word via FB and other means. Friends of friends have been notified....especially those who might live closest.
