He said he had a good look at him and had taken Pippen's doggy brother too to see if he recognised him......what a shame.

I emailed Leigh with Pippens details and they kindly replied to confirm this dog definately wasnt Pippen. They said Pippens owner Steven rings them daily and has also been to visit. Its good they are aware of Pippen and know Steven is actively searching.

Fingers crossed Pippen is found x

Copied Article on Pippin in Leigh Reporter. 17/1/13

Lost Dog Appeal
People in Leigh are being asked to look
out for a dog which went missing after a
football match.
Coach driver Steven Harrison brought
Cardiff City fans to Bolton on November
3, and was accompanied by Staffordshire
crosses Pippin and Nipper, who had trave-
lled with him. But fireworks were set off
at the Reebok for Bonfire Night, startling
Pippin, which bolted from the coach.
Mr Harrison is offering a £500 reward.
Contact Mr Harrison on 07966 276 215.

Thank you everyone, its great to see that you are all still looking out for Pippen. There are 2 similar dogs currently at Leigh Cats and Dogs Home, I have sent the photos to Steven for him to have a look.
leanne
I do realy hope he's found soon,I've already put posters up too, I'm guna try get out and av a walk in the woodland area il go further out and put more posters up at bus stops and outside shops
Christieleannex
Steven approached me the morning after Pippen went missing asking if me or my friend had seen him but unfortunately we hadn't. I work opposite the retail park & right next to the woodland area. Steven gave me a poster so i put it in the reception at work. So everyone who goes into my work (at least 150 people) will see it. Hope he is found soon!! I don't know what I'd do if I lost any of my dogs :-(! Will still keep an eye out every day in case I see him!Last edited: 2012-11-21 20:43:02 by Christieleannex

I've put a poster up in the services at Rivington South on the M61 which is close to where he went missing. I've also put one up at the train stn at Horwich, just outside the main building (on a phone box) as I was told I couldnt put any up inside the station. Has anyone been in touch with Railways? And Highways recently?
leanne
Wonder if they did a broadcast?

have e-mailed Radio Lancashire to ask them to broadcast details. Don't know if they will.
leanne
Missed wiv more posters further out :(

I've been up to Reebok today and asked at the police station, they had the missing report for Pippen right near him and he said they were keeping an eye out. I left a poster and he said he'd put it up on the front door. I also left posters at HomeBase, Halfords, Pets@Home (there was already one there so I just added the extra numbers too it). I also left one in Asda, they don't have a community notice board but the lady said she would put the poster in the staff room and ask around. A lot of the shops wouldn't take a poster because they're not allowed and can't put any on the street furniture on the actual retail park as they get removed straight away, but I guess its a start.
I'll go back in a day or two and do the train station and the Arena & the hotel.

That would be great ClairyFairy. The owner has had to leave the area so any help is very much appreciated.

Do we know if anyone has been around the retail park with Pippen's poster? There's also a police stn where he went missing, has anyone approached them? I'll try and get up there with a bunch of posters as soon as I can.

Thanks AnnieSparky, I have a photo of the one you posted as she has stayed with the finder, I will be adding her to DL very shortly. Its definitely not Pippen or Bentley....so many staffs lost and found in Bolton recently :(

Owner asked me to contact the Bolton cleansing department. No reports in Bolton since Saturday. No reply from the Highways Agency so will send them an email.

Just reported to the Chorley Dog Warden as the Reebok is not far from the Chorley border.
