Hi all I'm lexis owner Ashley, finally got myself on here :-) just want to say such a big thank u to everyone that helped. There was so much support from everywhere it was really amazing x x x lexi is doing really well a bit stiff and bruised but had a good scrub in the bath Nd is looking beautiful ( a little thin but I'm fattening her her). Thank u to u all without all your help and support I wouldn't have lexi home snuggled nice and warm with her sister right now more then likely snoring away :-) x x x x x x

Hi all, just to let you know Lexi was taken to the out of hours vets last night and great news she hasn't got anything wrong with her. Just a few Scrathes and stiffness (bruises) I can't believe how lucky she is especially after being hit twice by the cars. Once again a big thank you to you all for all your help you have all been AMAZING. Lexi had a great night sleep last night and was well looked after by sister Bonnie xxxx

2013-02-06 08:40 Anne

Wonderful start to the day. I have been following Lexi on here and am delighted to click on her this morning to find her in the blue. Well done to everyone!

2013-02-06 00:35 DogLostKimmybear - Area Co-ordinator, Essex & Hertfordshire borders

Absolutely brilliant! Very well done to Ashley, all of Lexi's family, all DogLost helpers and to the Dog Warden who first registered Lexi on here. Ashley, you did it! You got her! You so deserved to get her home and you did. I am over the moon for you. Welcome home sweet Lexi. Big kisses to Lexi & Bonnie who are together again. xxxxx Helpers, you are so fab!!!

2013-02-05 22:27 Millys Mum

Brilliant news!!! I'm so pleased to hear that Lexi is back home safe and sound and hopefully none the worse for her mini (not to be repeated) 'adventure'. Great effort everyone and it was lovely to hear how the good folk of Essex were there for Lexi and so willing and ready to help.

2013-02-05 20:55 Dog WardenBasildon DW

Nowt to do with me, it was the posters (and obviously the people who put them up)it was great Ashley had phone call after phone call with sightings, the local PCSO, postmen, people at bus stops and locals all calling in or pointing the way, awesome. I don't think there is a person in that area of Basildon who does not know about Lexi.

2013-02-05 20:16 DogLostJayne - Founder Doglost.

BRILLIANT NEWS...TX team Essex..and Basildon dog warden again...you are a star...

2013-02-05 17:30 Dog WardenBasildon DW

2013-02-05 16:29 kay_cee_80

I'm so so pleased to hear this news. Thank goodness for that. I've not been able to get Lexi off my mind since I heard about her missing on Saturday.
Well done everyone. What a fantastic outcome.

2013-02-05 16:24 cooperthfc

Lexi has been caught :-) so so happy, thank you all so much for Your help and support through everything. She was found at plumbing centre on Burnt Mills and held with a packet of crisps :-)

2013-02-05 15:15 Jo - Area Co-ordinator, Essex

SIGHTING UPDATE
Owners and dog warden have seen Lexi (within a few feet - so close but yet so far!) but she is bolting. As of 2.45pm she was on Coultard Road, East Mayne area.

Any people that can have a look around it would be VERY much appreciated as she's near a busy road. Please just keep a look out and DO NOT try to catch Lexi - please call owners or dogwarden if you see Lexi. The owners are out searching with their other dog.
Come on Lexi - give in and let them catch you!

THanks everyone. x

2013-02-05 14:14 hollys mum

2013-02-05 14:02 cooperthfc

Lexi has now bolted towards Whitmore way please all keep eye out as warden ash and others are chasing

2013-02-05 13:56 cooperthfc

Lexi has just been seen at great spenders off Whitmore way has come out to see other dog. Dogs owners there with them. Ash and dog warden on her way lets hope she comes home xx

2013-02-05 10:36 hollys mum

hi I live on craylands, I will keep my eyes open. If someone can drop me a poster I can put in my window as school kids/parents go past my house everyday.

2013-02-05 10:21 cooperthfc

Can anybody advise me how we can get a reward put on here to please?

2013-02-05 10:15 cooperthfc

Hi all. Just update on whats happening, Ashley is going to be popping out this afternoon to lay some scent down around mopsies park with home dust etc. and to check that area with the babies for a few hours. We are thinking about getting people to go over and search craylands tomorrow afternoon after 2/3 as we have our twins picked up by grandparents then and it gives us more freedom to explore safely. I am going to be recalling all vets, schools, council for highways and also calling the railways,. If anyone has another places they think I should call please let me know. Once again thank you for all your support.

2013-02-05 08:44 DogLostKimmybear - Area Co-ordinator, Essex & Hertfordshire borders

Scenting - use the advice sheet I sent. You don't need to just use cloth - use your own scent! Read the instructions I emailed you now! If you need help call - you can do this! Keep going - you are doing well! x

2013-02-05 08:02 teddyedward

Re: An organised search. If one is organised please let me know as I am only too willing to assist. I have been out with my greyhound a few times but it's knowing where to focus that's the problem. I have a feeling that Lexi is very close to being found. Members of www.greyhoundhomer.co.uk are being kept informed.

2013-02-05 06:19 kay_cee_80

I'm still walking The Fremnells, Pattiswick Square, Beeleigh East, Frypha Hall fields, Danbury Down, Quilters Straight, etc everyday with my greyhound & Lurcher looking for Lexi.
I have a spare Martingale collar & lead and some food in my pockets just in case she's hungry enough to come up to me and my hounds. I just haven't seen her at all though. :(
If you do an organised search of the area, count me in and let me know.

2013-02-05 00:11 cooperthfc

Sorry Spangles I forgot to add the rest of message regarding the scenting, we have sorted out some wrags to cut up and place out, I cant believe how close she is to home, She is usually quite laid back and waits for her food to be put down as our other greyhound likes to get in quickly for the stuff thats being sorted. I must say she does like a bin bag now and again though so old leftover food after its gone quite is a big possibility. so she might end uo at these places late on. x

2013-02-05 00:04 cooperthfc

Hi Spangles, our other greyhound hasnt got any markings and was kept on the lead with Ashley all the time so wasnt the sightings im sure. There was a sighting in Mopsies area around early afternoon on Sunday and a possible sighting at stacey's last night. She is definately winning the game of hide and seek at the moment im just trying to think if I was her where would I go? Im wondering if I can prehaps get some friends to have a look at the back of freyerns in the craylands estates as if you go round to the left when you enter the estate up the back all the houses are empty but with gardens and sheds still in them and Garages. Will need to check if this has been done tomorrow

2013-02-04 23:46 Spangles

Cooperthfc have you any idea what time the sightings that muckymutz refers to were? did you search Staceys Corner and Mopsies following the call, just need to ensure that the call wasn't made having seen your other greyhound out looking for Lexi......Kimmybear, yes a triangle of sorts if you take where she bolted from and the two latest sightings, and quite a small triangle..Chris have you scented as per the advice sent from DL she seems so close to home....is she a counter surfer would the smell of food attract her, lots of takeaways in Timberlog Lane, is she heading there late at night? Come on Lexi you win the game of hide and seek, time to come home pretty girl x

Hi all, I am one of the owners of lexi (Chris) you have all been dealing with my partner Ashley. First of all I would like to say a massive thank you to you all for all the hard work you are doing to try and bring my Lexi home it really is such a huge relief to know there are so Many Good People.

A Update on what has gone on today, Ashley went out early afternoon with our other Greyhound covering Mopsies Park and Stacey's Corner with a friend with no sign.

Also She has been out with a medium party tonight covering Staceys Corner, Mopsies, Freyerns and new estate. also slightly into red brick area near Stacey Park. Still no sightings. Im sorry I havent been able to get out I have just been released from hospital from a operation and im so annoyed i cant get out there but once again thank you all so much. I hope we get her home soon and ill throw the BBQ party as a welcome home

2013-02-04 22:11 DogLostKimmybear - Area Co-ordinator, Essex & Hertfordshire borders

That's a lovely picture. Thank you Angus & Ashmark. With all these sightings she should be found very soon. Everything crossed. Are the sightings forming a triangle?

2013-02-04 18:45 AlisonH

Bumped due to sightings.

2013-02-04 15:24 muckymutz

Heard there's been two more sightings one at mopsies park another by Stacey's corner these seem more logical than the laindon sighting. Just been over mopsies but no sign
And have driven around the streets over Stacey's corner way also no sign.

2013-02-04 12:44 DogLostAngus

clear image of Lexi now added

2013-02-04 09:10 muckymutz

Sorry that was meant to say, someone on my dog grooming page has just said they saw her at the triangle shops in laindon yesterday, they pulled over and she had then vanished, she said she didn't appear injured.

I had a brief look around Gloucester Park Sun morning, but to no avail. Plenty of fishermen along the lake who might just help.

I have a feeling that there's someone living in a tent on one of the hillocks - might Lexi be attracted to food smells there? My dog was! Good Luck!

I'll have a look around Gloucester Park at some point tomorrow. Dave

2013-02-03 20:32 kay_cee_80

I hear from Lexi's owner that there was a possible sighting of her over Gloucester Park yesterday (Saturday 2nd Feb). Perhaps that's the place to search around tomorrow.

I've had a letter through my door today from St Andrews church at the end of The Fremnells saying they will start digging up their carpark tomorrow at 8am. Work will be ongoing for 4 - 5 weeks. If Lexi is anything like my greyhound, then she'll stay well away from that building noise. So I don't expect her this end of Broadmayne.

2013-02-03 20:30 DogLostKimmybear - Area Co-ordinator, Essex & Hertfordshire borders

DW, I got an email from Ashley saying the found dog in Chelmsford might be Lexi, but I have no idea who or where found dog is???? Is this Lexi's owner??

2013-02-03 18:32 Dog WardenBasildon DW

Thanks Kay_cee_80. That's great about the kids but I am not suprised about the posters, it happens all the time.

2013-02-03 17:06 kay_cee_80

I've been out searching again, covering The Fremnells, pattiswick square, Beeleigh East, Frypha Hall Fields, Whitmore Way & Great Spenders but no luck.
I had a group of kids come running over to me pointing at my white & black greyhound, Lucy, and ask if she was the missing dog. I told them no, and that Lexi is still missing, but does look a lot like my Lucy. So the posters are working.
Sadly I have to report that some sick individual has been along The Fremnells and Beeleigh East and pulled down and torn up the posters.
What kind of sicko does that?

2013-02-03 15:47 Dog WardenBasildon DW

I need the exercise Jayne!! I'm getting so many cals and texts from concerned people who are out looking, its lovely and comforting to the owners and family who are also looking like crazy- thanks everyone x. Do you have any suggestions on what to do next Jayne. I have asked owner to contact you regarding PR and press appeal.

2013-02-03 15:31 DogLostJayne - Founder Doglost.

Above and beyond again for our wonderful dogwarden....so kind of you to go out on your day off searching...and all you wonderful team Lexi helpers....

2013-02-03 15:10 Dog WardenBasildon DW

I have been out this morning either side of broadmayne, again in the bushes garages and side roads from Timberlog lane to church road. I did not go further than the beeliegh area and long riding on the otherside. I also went down long riding from town up to church road. I wonder if she has found a really good hiding spot but we have been concentrating on bushes, empty garages, ditches etc or someone has her.

2013-02-03 14:04 kay_cee_80

Still no sightings of her? I can go out searching again this afternoon with my greyhound & lurcher. Where would be best to search?

2013-02-03 09:55 janew

There is dog training class outside at frypa hall this morning may be worth checking over there and giving leaflets to all the people at dog training

2013-02-02 17:41 Dog WardenBasildon DW

I shall have some with me tomorrow, I will concentrate on broadmayne, in the bushes mainly and take some shears with me, there are lots of thick brambles, and then work my way inward on the long riding side. We had a big search around craylands and surrounding wasteland and then on toward the town up to holy cross. We spoke to lots of people and handed out lots of leaflets, no one has seen her.

2013-02-02 16:45 willow1

Thanks I will take willow and some food as well

2013-02-02 16:44 kay_cee_80

Sorry, I'm back home now ... my dogs are shattered!
I live along the Fremnells. I can come out and search again tomorrow afternoon as I'm out in the morning. I have some friends that might be able to help search too.

2013-02-02 16:41 kay_cee_80

Been out again, searching along The Fremnells, The Hatherly, Whitmore Way, Church Road, Methersgate and Broadmayne. Still no sign though.

2013-02-02 16:40 Dog WardenBasildon DW

I shall drop you some round in a little while Katie, still out searching. Kay_cee_80 where about are you? Or if you are out tomorrow I can meet you somewhere to save leaving numbers and addresses on the page.

When I was out this morning I only saw one poster, it was on Church Road by Broadmayne.
I can poster the area if you have spares to put up.

2013-02-02 14:27 Dog WardenBasildon DW

Which park is that. Do you mean the one on church road, swan mead I think its called?

2013-02-02 14:02 willow1

Sarah should I will be out with willow soon to go and look..would she of gone to the park with boat in it with a sand in it

2013-02-02 13:59 Dog WardenBasildon DW

Thanks Kay_cee_80, we have had nothing either this morning. Family and volunteers currently out looking. I have given owner, Ashley, tons of leaflets and posters about an hour ago so it may be worth any one wanting some to call/link up with her if they want some. I shall be back out shortly concentrating on bushes, open ground, parks and any good hiding places. I will also have posters and leaflets so if anyone wants to waive me down I'm in a dirty white transit, blonde hair black jacket (council logo) blue jeans.

2013-02-02 13:58 willow1

Went out at 10:40am and covered The Fremnells, Pattiswick Square, Beeleigh East, Fryerns School Field, Frypa Hall Fields, Whitmore Way from The Jolly Friar to Honeypot Lane, Broadmayne to Church Road, Wykes Green and Curling Tye. Sadly no sign of Lexi though. I'll go out again later.

2013-02-01 23:50 DogLostKimmybear - Area Co-ordinator, Essex & Hertfordshire borders

If anyone can get out and search, please just do so. Be careful not to push her away, so do NOT chase, but do look and have phone at the ready to call the number on poster. Repeat DO NOT CHASE. You are fab out there and it's so great to see sightings coming through. Well done everyone! x

2013-02-01 21:34 kay_cee_80

I live right near where Lexi went missing and I also own a greyhound and a lurcher. If me and my dogs could be if any use in Lexi's search let me know as I'm about all day tomorrow and at a loose end. Poor girl must be so scared and cold out there.

2013-02-01 21:16 muckymutz

I own a dog grooming salon in ss14 literally around the corner to where lexi went missing and have lots of customers in this area so have circulated the poster to them all and have had lots comments from many in the area that they are all looking out for her, also got my dog walking employee on the look out and my friend is about to go out with her greyhound now to have a look, fingers crossed she's home soon.

2013-02-01 20:19 teddyedward

I have just got back from looking around and throughout the Nether Priors area just on the off chance that Lexi was getting near to home. I will go out tomorrow if needed and if there are any sightings of her I will look in that area. Meanwhile lets hope she is safe.

2013-02-01 19:48 claire

Hope you get your beautiful dog home soon, I lost my greyhound over 2 years ago so I know the heartache you are suffering at the moment

2013-02-01 17:43 teddyedward

I plan to go out later if she is not found and take my greyhound with me. If there is any area that you feel another pair of eyes would help please let me know.

2013-02-01 16:37 Dog WardenBasildon DW

Thank you Dave. Last sighting was this morning around 10:00 on Broadmayne near to the Timberlog lane turn off. She lives in Nether Priors so nearly home!
Search Party of family/friends and Bellas Angel out now searching and postering. I have run back to office for more posters. Any further info and we will update.

2013-02-01 14:28 teddyedward

Cruised around Whitmore Road area for about an hour today 1330 -1430 but no sign. Very difficult to know where to begin. Any updates I can put on www.greyhoundhomer.co.uk Forum and I am also available to help search if and when any sightings are made. Live in Wickford. 01268561361. Dave

2013-02-01 12:21 Dog WardenBasildon DW

Another sighting earlier today near Broadmayne and long riding. She is trying to find her way home. Trixs if you call my office and leave your number I shall give you a call. 01268294280

Tx everyone....

Hi I am in Basildon area and happy to assist from 1530 today. Please let me know how I could help....putting up posters, leafletting and searching. At the moment I don't have facilities to print though.

I also circulated on FB and alerted Bellas Angels.

2013-02-01 09:54 Dog WardenBasildon DW

The owner circulated it on Facebook yesterday afternoon and is being shared widely. I shall ask our media dept to put it on basildon councils Facebook page as well.

2013-02-01 09:17 Debs D

Have put on FB

2013-02-01 07:55 Dog WardenBasildon DW

Lexi was seen at 7pm last night on Whitmore way in Basildon. Owner was out looking but could not find her but has spread the word to local shops parks etc. I will be back out shortly postering. Whitmore way runs central through several large housing estates tightly packed together. Needle in a haystack springs to mind. I shall add on posters to check gardens garages etc.

2013-02-01 05:23 DogLostJayne - Founder Doglost.

Alerts sent out to helpers in ss6-17. CM13,14,15.

2013-01-31 20:11 Jo - Area Co-ordinator, Essex

Can we have alerts out asap for Lexi please. Please everyone follow the dog wardens advice and pass on the message not to approach but to call if sighted. We believe she was injured in the rta so need to limit chances of her bolting again given how nervous she is too. Thanks.

2013-01-31 17:24 Dog WardenBasildon DW

Lexi was hit by a car on a very busy dual carridgeway at lunchtime today and bolted. She was seen up to an hour after the accident around the Fryerns/Broadmayne area. Her owner is desperate to find her. Lexi has probably found somewhere to hide as she is a very nerous dog, scared of her own shadow. Please please do not attempt to catch her if seen, call the owner or Basildon Council.
