- What a wonderful story. Myrtle went missing at the same time as Jimmy our sons bully and they went on the tv about him. it was the vigilant public that made his a success story. lets hope they are still as keen and alert. Jimmy is doing well so hopefully is myrtle.

- Ditto what Mollychops has said: Candy, lovely to see you posting and I so wish YOU will also get that call one day soon that Dolly has been found.
- 2010-06-13 15:20 Mollychops
- Great to have you posting Candy, I so wish you will get your little dog back, I often look out for her as she is So distinctive

- What a fantastic reunited photo - it gives hope to those with dogs that have been missing for a long time. never give up hope.

- I remember Myrtle going missing all those years ago, how wonderful that she has been re-united. I still hope that I will receive that magic phone call that Dolly 6.2.05 has been found. So very glad for Myrtle and that the nightmare is over for her family xx

- What amazing news and what inspiration to all who's dog is still missing. I totally appreciate the decision to allow Myrtle to stay where she is and recover from where it is she has been. Well Done to all concerned - what fabulous news.
- 2010-06-12 19:56 Millys Mum
- What a lovely, lovely reunited photo and the best possible and happiest of endings. Wishing dear Myrtle much happiness in her foster home where, I'm sure, the past few years will be a distant blur and soon to be completely forgotten. Bless this little girl. Welcome back Myrtle.. x

- Wow!! I havent posted on Doglost for a long time but I just had to when I heard the news! So, so pleased Myrtle has been found... she gives hope to all other owners that they may one day be reunited. My thoughts are with Dolly and I totally understand her decision to leave Myrtle with in her foster home. Live long and be happy Myrtle. xx
- 2010-06-12 12:10 digbysmum
- A sad story but with a happy ending, fortunately. Stay safe dear Myrtle and have a long and happy life xx
- 2010-06-12 11:12 Bugs
- I'm so happy that Myrtle has been found and that you have been able to see her. Also, I commend you on your decision to leave her with her foster family, a very selfless decision. It must be wonderful to have a conclusion at last, instead of the wondering about what had happened to her. Bless you all, and I'm sure that Myrtle will be very happy now.

- Hi everyone and sorry not to have been on earlier. Yesterday was a very emotional day as you can imagine. Myrtle is everything I remebered and more. For what she potentially has been through she has not lost her kind sweet nature. She wagged politely at everyone she met doggy and human. I'm not sure if she recognised me but she kept leaning on my legs and was more than happy to lie on the grass and cuddle. We went for a walk and she met the other dogs with no problems. She is heaven and it is really hard to know what to do as I don't feel there is a bad bone in her body. She is so trusting. Like all bullies, her commands wouldn't be great. Even on the lead I had to suggest she might like to follow me rather than her bumbling off in the opposite direction. She really is hilarious! My heart melts every time I think of what she has been through and I can only thank firstly Annabelle for her help, support and care. To Lynda from the Bull Terrier Trust for looking after and understanding Myrtle so amazingly, not to mention all the other dogs she cares for, to Clare (TyTarw) for her never ending support, and of course to Lynn, Sandie, and all at Doglost for their faith in their system! The time that goes into all this is so commendable and words cannot describe how grateful we all are to you for making our world a happy place again. Thank you all. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

- What a fantastic picture. Dolly I am so very pleased for you and your family, the last 5 years must have been awful for you, but no at the long last you can look to the future. Give Myrtle a great big kiss from me. Take care little one. Annabelle

- Such a wonderful outcome. Ive been thinking of you DollyMaude, it must have been incredibly hard, knowing that Myrtle was found and safe, but that now you had little people to consider as well. You made the right decision here, and were very brave. She will have a fantastic life now, and you get to see her too!! Very well done to Angus and everyone at Ark and all who played a part in Myrtles reuniting XX SueLast edited: 2010-06-12 07:26:41 by Mollychops

- Fantastic to see Myrtle being taken care of by her fosterers and Dolly being able to visit her over the coming weeks and months; if only they could talk! Very well done to all who played a part in this homecoming, absolutely fantastic. Take care all of you and darling Myrtle.x.

- I have tonight the greatest pleasure in officially moving Myrtle into the blue. Dolly has been and met up with Myrtle in her long term foster home, she is still a very sweet, friendly dog and she has met her dog family and they all got on well together. Myrtle will be staying with her foster family, a decision that has been made with the agreement of all parties in her very best interest, she will want for nothing and best of all Dolly will be able to visit her from time to time and continue to monitor her progress. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Dolly is still in shock that after 5 years there is a happy ending and an end to that question what if ........ To all owners out there with long term missing dogs please keep the faith it could happen to you, Doglost co-ordinators and volunteers accross the country continue to cross match dogs in pounds to try and make that match, with good clear photographs posted on site there is always that chance. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Personally I would like to say a massive THANKYOU to Annabelle at ARK who works in partnership with doglost and always forwards stray intake for us to crossmatch, this reunion would never have happened if we did not have this arrangement with partner kebnnels and wardens across the country. Also a big THANKYOU to Bull Terrier Welfare who have rehabilitated Myrtle and helped get her back to health and will continue to oversee her progress. Dolly is going to make a donation to doglost which will help us to continue our work in supporting owners for as long as it takes. Enjoy the photo's. Sandie xx

- This is unbelievable, I do hope it all works out for you Dolly but feel you are taking the right approach for all concerned xxxx Have never stopped comparing her picture with bully bitches that have come in with black ears. Will be interesting to see a picture of her all grown up. Love to you all

- I cannot beleieve this news - truly cannot believe this. I cannot see the screen enough at the moment to type much but I am so happy she is back in a safe world xxx I am already hoping to meet the little baby I have thought of so often these past 5 yrs....and her family again, now in happier times Clare xxLast edited: 2010-06-08 00:58:04 by TyTarw

- I am so very happy to hear that Myrtle has been found. Bless her little heart. Dolly Maude, there is no doubt you have Myrtle's best interest at heart and that is so courageous of you. I am still looking for my dog after 5 months being missing and I am devestated. This helps me so much and I know that you are so very relieved to know that Myrtle is alive and being well taken care of right now. I am so very happy for Myrtle that people care about her once again. I hope that you realize that you have everyone's support in your decision, whatever that might be. You are a wonderful person and I know you will let us know what your final decision will be. Good luck. xx

- Dolly Maude (Myrtle's mum) is going to allow her some safe, quiet time and will visit her once she is settled and regaining health and strenth. Will be a week or so but I am sure we will hear once she has been and have those lovely photos. Thanks Dolly Maude for those lovely words.
- 2010-05-29 16:07 Angelita
- It certainly looks like her and would be fantastic news after all this time.
- 2010-05-29 11:09 Meeka
- Hi Dolly - Myrtle's story has given so many people still searching for their dogs (including me) renewed hope that one day we might be in the same position as you. I feel sure that you will make the right decision not only for Myrtle but also your family but it's fantastic that you know that she is safe and well. Ark - you all do such a fantastic job, without wonderful people like you these dogs would have a very different outlook, without your photographs the match would never would have been made and Dolly would forever be wondering what had happened to Myrtle so an enormous thank- you to you all. This is such a fantastic story which will hopefully have an equally wonderful conclusion.
- 2010-05-29 08:50 Dolly Maude
- Morning everyone and thank you for all your supportive posts. Joan is an absoloute star, and as you say Angus, with their professional guidance, I hope that we will come to the best arrangement for Myrtle. She deserves a quiet time for now so she will be staying with her foster mum Lynda to be assessed. I will visit here there and we are keeping in close contact as to her progress. It certainly would be a bridge too far to introduce her into this mad house at the moment...Maybe in time. I wanted to say that with out all of you out there working tirelessly for people like me and Myrtle, we never would've found closure on this very very sad tale, and for that I will be eternally grateful. Although I have nightmares now about how she has been treated, I know that she will have a happy and safe remainder to her life. There were times I felt like giving up, but your support at Doglost was so supreme, that it would've been an insult to do so. SOo THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU ALL for being such wonderful, supportive, understanding determined people. You certainly helped to restore my faith in human nature. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx P.S Updates to follow with photos!!
- 2010-05-29 07:22 PaulaK
- So its looking pretty certain that it is Myrtle - I would say its unbelieveable but Ive seen others turn up after years on the missing list. I hope it brings an end to the years of wondering where she went and if she was ok. Im very pleased to see that things are being done slowly and assessments taken seriously too - as you said she isnt the puppy that went missing. I hope things work out for you all, and Myrtle and wish you all the luck in the world xxx
- 2010-05-28 23:23 dinkydoodle
- Myrtle went missing before I joined DL but I have just read all the posts on her page to catch up and am so glad she has finally 'popped' up all these years later. Her owners will make the right decision for them and Myrtle and I wish all of them the very best for the future.x.
- 2010-05-28 21:06 Spindle
- Dolly, you will make the right decision I am sure, this just shows how important photos on our site are, without them from the brill rescue and the ones you put on the match would not had been possible. Looking forward to talking to you once you have visited her. Sure we have put the world to rights in our conversation in the last few days. This case is going to bring such hope to so many and proove that we never give up on Doglost. Remember that camera, we need those photos.
- 2010-05-28 20:45 Angus
- Dolly - Thank you for taking the time to give us an update - I cannot imagine the emotions that you are going through at the moment, but haing spoken with you yesterday I know that you are very sensible in your approach to if and how you may be able to take Myrtle back into your family and I know that between you and the very experienced people at the Bull Terrier Welfare that you will come to the right decision for both the family and for Myrtle. I would like to personally thank Joan from the for her diligance and care in this matter and dealing with it as quickly as she has to get to this point. ~~~~~~~~~ ARK - What can I say, you are a wonderful rescue who always have the welfare and wellbeing of the dogs in your care uppermost and without the photographs that you send this match would possibly never have come about so again a big thanks to you for making this possible. Sandie x

- This is just fantastic!!! I got all shivers down my back when I read it really was your lovely girl,,I agree you may not be able to give her what she needs anymore,,WOW,,still great to know after all this time,,welcome home gorgeous girl ;-0 Annabel xx
- 2010-05-28 19:50 Dolly Maude
- Hi everyone, so sorry it has taken so long to get on the computer. The lady who runs the bull terrier rescue rang me to say that the dog is definitely Myrtle and that the reason she knows this is that she bred the great granny and recognises the line!! What a small world. We sgreed that I would go and see her and then we would have her assessed as I have 4 children now and Myrtle is not the little lady she was when she left us. The whole situation is such an emotional roller coaster as I am not sure if it is fair to expect her to fit into a hectic house. I wonder if she needs a quiet time now?! Advice? Annabelle, thank you for your messages and please don't feel bad. You are a great honest caring person and did what we all would have don, and it has turned out for the best...As soon as I know when I am going to see her, I will ring you. How bizarre that the very first sighting I had in December 05 was in a village near BAnbury...
- 2010-05-28 14:01 ARK
- Please, please, please let this be a happy ending. Thinking of you Dolly and if it is Myrtle, give her a big kiss from me and tell her sorry from me for drawing this painfull process out even longer. Annabelle

- Oooooooooooh! - got the ants in the pants syndrome - can't wait to see if the found dog is Myrtle - everything crossed here for good news...

- 2010-05-28 11:27 Angus

- 2010-05-27 22:22 Poochpal - Regional Co-ordinator - South West - Police Liaison Team
- Message for Ark. I agree whole heartedly with Spindle, you must NOT blame yourself for what is happening with this. We are just so pleased that you manage to find the time to try to trace the true owners.
- 2010-05-27 22:14 bee
- Hi wouldnt it be wonderful if this was Myrtle, why on earth are you not being allowed to see her to find out ?
- 2010-05-27 21:59 Debra
- I truly don't understand why you can't see the dog. I would think they would be eager to have one less dog to take care of and to have the dog back with it's original owner. My goodness, a bit of cooperation can go a long way. Keeping positive thoughts and energy going your way that you can at least take a look and hopefully she's Myrtle. Fingers crossed and prayers too. xx
- 2010-05-27 19:51 Spindle
- ARK - no one predicted this, dont blame yourself. We all do what we can to get the dogs back where they should be.There are not enough hours in the day to do everything, we can only do our best. Hopefully Myrtles mum will be able to see her to find out for sure.
- 2010-05-27 12:17 ARK
- Dolly I just wanted to say how sorry I am for all the trouble you are having in going to see this possible Myrtle. If I had known this was going to happen I would have kept her here for you to see her. So sorry I do feel responsible and if there is anything I can do, please dont hesitate to contact me. ARK
- 2010-05-27 11:41 PaulaK
- watching this closely, would be amazing if it was Myrtle, good luck!
- 2010-05-27 09:06 Mollychops
- Gosh this would be fantastic if this were Myrtle. Keeping everything crossed here, goog luck Dolly Maude, I hope you get to see the found EBT soon, it must be so frustrating!
- 2010-05-27 00:16 Angus
- I have bumped Myrtle's page so that she is easy to find - I hope that we may be able to get some resolution for her owners to be able to view the found dog and to show the EBT the many photographs of Myrtle as a 15 week old puppy. This family have suffered since December 2005 of not knowing what happened after Myrtle was stolen but have never given up on the thought that one day they may find her again, hopefully they will be given the opportunity.
- 2010-05-26 22:53 Dolly Maude
- Wow, how strange to think that this may all be over. If the found dog is Myrtle, it sounds like she has had a terrible ordeal. Sadly the EBT will not let me visit to verify whether we think it is her or not...I hope that this can be resolved quickly as she was in the pound for 8 days and they only took her today. I have now been told that she is their property unless I can prove otherwise, which is hard if I can't see her and them with the thousands of photos that I have on my laptop. The lady looking after her says she is in very bad condition too. It would be lovely to be able to establish if she was my dog or not quickly to avoid heart ache AGAIN!!! Thank you Lynn and Annabel for your support.
- 2010-05-26 15:42 Angus
- owners have been contacted re the found EBT today - they will arrange to go and see her as soon as possible to check if it could be her. Big thanks to the rescue kennels Last edited: 2010-05-27 00:10:58 by Angus

- P.S The reward still stands. I know someone out there knows more about this than we do. Surely there is some way we can rouse their interest. If they are prepared to steal then they should be prepared to take money too to give her back wouldn't you think?Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Hi Dolly Maude, I was thinking about you as our penny has been gone a whole year as well and thought I would just check on Myrtle to see if there is any progress. I, like you was pregnant through out our whole dog theft ordeal, I gave birth to Archie on the 17th June 2006 we had Penny stolen on 06th Dec 2005, and Gin was stolen on the 21st April 2006 quite an ordeal for us preganant ladies!!! Congratulations on the birth of Ted by the way, I know the babies take up alot of our time but we must still live in hope of getting our other babies back!! Thinking or you and also thinking of Myrtle.Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

Now I'm back online as my parents have lost their dog Mabel. Black lab. Only they are on hols and it's my father's 88th birthday tomorrow 29th. HELP.Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- No ideas Dolly Maude but when I got lewd calls I just hung up, they soon get tired of it, you could try the police if they persist but don't know if it would do any good. Hope you are all well, please keep us posted. I will always look at any bull terrier I see and Myrtle is so distinctive. Dolly 6.2.05Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- The lurchers are lovely, and yes, both are chipped. Netty the old hairy one is Basils 'wife'. She is now 15 and has never been the same since he went missing on the 9th May 2004. Sybil is only 3 and very shy of strangers. She would NEVER go willingly and Nettle is far too old and smelly for nyone to love her other than me! I didn't see the article, but apparently there was one in the Manchester local paper after which i started getting hoax calls from some idiot. Every night at about 5.30 and 7.30 this man would ring and say that he had sold my dog to the indian take away. Then he would ring back amd say that he was doing things (that I will not mention on this site) to her and that he would like to do them to me too as I was 'a dog too wasn't I?' So maybe mobile numbers are NOT such a great idea after all. Any thoughts?Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Forgot to say your other two dogs look adorable, I hope you won't take this the wrong way but I really hope that you have either tattooed or chipped these two. My Dolly is microchipped and I know it hasn't worked for me but I am still in favour of permanent id. Dolly 6.2.05Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Dolly Maude, saw the article in Western Daily Press yesterday, it was a good article and I hope that someone somewhere recognises Myrtle, let's face it Bull Terriers aren't that common and she is very distictively marked. Dolly 6.2.05Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- The police came round yesterday to inform me that they had traced those numbers that had rung me as ransom calls. There were 2 numbers and they were both in Cheltenham, one was a flat the other he wouldn't tell me. But apparently there were no dogs at either address and the woman who lived there told him that lots of people used her phone. HOW PATHETIC that they could get that close but wimp out at the last minute!!!He told me that she was terrified that he was there. SO WHAT! They terrorised us and stole the dogs. WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO STOP BEING THE VICTIMS? I was not surprised by the result. It is one of those situations where you are so out of control that is not worth getting upset about it, but I wish the police weren't so yellow bellied about these groups of people that feel it is their diving right to do as they chose...enough said I think.Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- No news. I went to Stow Fair in the vain hope that I may come across Basil. I didn't expect to see Myrtle there. So many dogs, but no where near as bad as last year, and only 2 litters for sale as far as I could see. I hope that all the rescuing is going well. Dolly Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- I had a phone call yesterday from a friend who0 saw some lads walking down the road in stow with a bull terrier bitch. He followed them only to discover that she had a black patch over her eye, not her ear! I know of a litter that was born in bourton not long after M went missing,so it must've been one of those, but nice to know that people are still thinking of her! Hope you are all successfully finding doggies all over the country. Love Dolly & CoLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- So sorry you're having to move but maybe it's for the best - fresh start and everything. I know you'll never give up hope that you'll get Myrtle back and neither will we - I'd like nothing more than to hear she's been reunited with her rightful owner but I know life has to go on. I feel so much sympathy for all of you with missing dogs - I just can't imagine how painful it must be when it goes on and on and you don't get any answers. I pray you will get her back one day soon. Good luck with the move. Thinking of you. Rx Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Hi everyone. Long time I know. Still no news obviously and wondering when the documentary will come out to see if that helps. Quite sad to see that alot of the missing dogs are still not home. Sadly this is a reflection not on us, but on the dishonest people who are harbouring the dogs and the people who take them. We are moving house now to get out of the village and the public eye as I am sure that is how both Basil and Myrtle were spotted in the first place. Great support still for darling Myrtle. Just so glad she was not in Birmingham. Dolly and Bump (due 24th July!)Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

You have done everything you possibly could to find your doggy baby. I'm sure she is a much loved doggy wherever she is.

It kills me to give up the search, but I CANNOT carry on driving madly round the countryside anymore.

- I agree with Candy you have to do what is right for you. How all of you with missing dogs cope I'll never know - as you say the endless calls/sightings etc must drive you insane. I have such admiration for you all. I suppose what makes it worse is that some people don't understand - they don't see dogs in the way we do and expect you to move on easily. I don't understand that attitude but I suppose we are all different. You are right your number one priority has to be as a mother and I can totally understand why you feel you have to try and move on from this. It's so cruel that this has happened to you twice. Stay strong. Thinking of you and Myrtle Rx Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Roz, you are so right, and here I am checking her page again. Someone rang me yesterday to say they had seen an ebt being walked pretty much in the next door village. We are so remote around here and it seems strange that if she is close by that no-one has seen her. No-one in the next door village has an ebt as far as I know, and each time this happens it haunts me for weeks. I'm certain that she is being harboured by someone and hopefully loved very much. Every moment of every day is taken up phoning or emailing people about Myrtle or putting up posters. We are moving house simply to get out of the village so people can't see that we have dogs. I need to be a mother again and not the owner of a lost dog. I am so incredibly sad about it, but I did this with Basil too and it nearly wrecked my marriage. I will not stop thinking of either of them and I will not really stop looking, but I have to start to get on with my life now for the sake of all the people around me. xxxxLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- I'm so sorry you feel that way but I can understand it must be terribly hard. I think the hardest part is the feeling of being stuck in limbo and unable to have closure. I'm sure I speak for all of us that we haven't forgotten Myrtle and we are always praying that you will get her back safely soon. She hasn't been gone that long in Dog Lost terms although I know it must seem like a lifetime to you and there is still a great chance of her being found but I understand your feelings.

- Oh dear. I have now decided that due to no news and no activity on the Myrtle page, and due to the fact that whoever she is with now would be better known to her than we are, I think that our search possibly finish. After all. She has been gone for longer than we had her for and whoever she is with now would be more like her 'mummy' that I am now. Poor little thing would be so confused. So thank you all so much. I am not being a defeatest who knows what will happen. But this constant search is ruining me. Dolly xxxxLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

We had a good chat about Myrtle and I have got some more photos - planning a HUGE blitz at Crufts with leaflets and a display in the BT section at Discover Dogs there. Was great to see you Dolly and rest assured we will never give up on your family and Myrtle being together - will get to see you again soon I hope. Clare xxLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

I have been surfing epups and looking on all the bull sites at all the unwanted bullies and it breaks my heart, but I am determined to get Myrtle back, and with 2 smalls and hopefully one on the way, I would be a fool to get one now.

- Hi Dolly Maude - This is the first time I've posted on this forum, although I've been keeping my eye on Myrtle's thread for ages and I did send you an email of support a while back through the Bully Bar. I recorded the interview from BBC breakfast and could email it to you if you want to see it? Let me know if you do. Still keeping a look out for Myrtle when I'm walking my Bullie, Lenny.... I'm sure she'll still be totally recognisable with her distinct markings, even though she would have grown a bit by now. Take care and look after yourself and the bump!!!

- Saw Jayne on BBC Breakfast News - she was great ! Very calm, factual and the Newsreaders genuinely interested.Unfortunately Jimmy was unable to appear himself and I think Jayne had no time to show Posters (sorry) due to the short time she was allocated and the main thing was to promote this Site and get new People involved.It's worked as I've been trying to log on and Server down all Morning until now ! So the more People that know - well it all helps doesn't it ? I hope you feel the same. Take care . JxLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Just looked at Jimmy's Page again and Jayne has posted to say the following - Watch BBC Breakfast News tomorrow Morning as she's meeting Jimmy ! Also that she will take Myrtle's Poster along too as well as others ! Busy Bee isn't she ?! So Myrtle will be advertised on TV now which is great news isn't it !? JxLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Dolly Maude I too would love you to know how it feels getting Myrtle back like Jimmy's Owners did. I'm sure you will have the same soon. Encouraging isn't it too that the Papers are interested ? Rest up and stay strong we haven't forgotten Myrtle. JxLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Sadly I'm still on bedrest and am having the next scan on 6th Feb which will tell us more. It is an anxious time, but there is still a heartbeat, and all the tests are underway so fingers crossed. So happy for Jimmy's owners. I would so love to know what that feels like...Funnily enough, the Daily Mail have just been in touch and are doing an article on Doglost. I gave it the most enormous plug and said how wonderful everyone was...Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Candy you are quite right. I slightly thought that after I had typed it. Unfortunately, like text messages, you can't take back what you have written, so it makes you look quite blond sometimes...(not that there is anything wrong with blonds..) Oh God, I'm doing it again! So so glad to see that Jimmy is back, and hope that we will have the same with Myrtle one day. I have a vision of Dolly (dog) in my head too for when I am out and about again. I keep surfing until then. Thanks all xLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

I would pay all travelling expenses but they might not be able to recognise her from the photo. 2 months down the line, she is going to be a bit different from the photo everyone knows her from!

Any one who is looking for a boxer, Westie or Jrt should be getting in contact with the USPCA but they do think that all the dogs originated in Ireland. Still I would have a look if that is what you are missing. Goood luck to all on that. GLad that Myrtle is not part of that but still feel there is part of Glos that I missing.

I can not seem to find any other email contact for them. The dogs were being held at the USPCA centre in Bessbrook but have now been moved to a "secret location". Even if we did head over there I wouldn't know where to start looking now they have been moved. Anybody!!! Any more ideas on what we can do about this?? Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Hi Dolly Maude, It was Shauna that i emailed. No response will try again. Makes you wonder if it isn't worth a trip over there, although the news reports say there is some legal limbo with working out who these dogs belong to. Stephen Phillpott of the USPCA quoted "We don't know who owns them, we don't know how they came to be there and I have to talk to the other agencies to try to take this forward," he said. Well we would like to talk to them about it too!!!! It is driving me mad!!Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

Our Patterdales where stolen in December Penny & Archie and we have been convinced from the beginning that this is the type of place they would end up!! Funny how alot of the T word people have headed back to NI and now this place is discovered!!!! The BBC News for NI had an interesting article today regarding the recovered dogs one gentleman from NI recognised his dog on the TV it had been stolen in October he has now been reunited. Lets hope we will be reunited with ours as well!!! In my e mail I refered them to the doglost website but sadly i have not had any response but lets hope they are onto it!!! Fingers crossed!!!

- Do we know if there is going to be a BIG media interest in this story? It would most definately help to get the message out - that this mindless, sick, scum infested activity is still going on. Other owners with missing "fighting breeds" will also know where to direct their search. If Myrtle has become unfortunately mixed up with these gutter scum I pray that she is safe, and home with you soon. xxxLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- I hope they come up with something too. It said 180 or possibly 160 'fighting dog breeds' including puppies. So I can onloy guess we are talking Staffie crosses, EBT's, and possibly pit bulls. Some where found on a breeding farm and the rest appeared to be in transit I think. So either they had arrived from somewhere like here, or they were on their way!! More likely they had just arrived there I should think. Is there really still dog fighting in this country?Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Hope Myrtle is found soon. I couldn't believe my eyes 180 dogs-I sincerely hope that some of them are the loved pets that owners have been desperatly trying to find. Bullies still stand out a mile, they are not the latest 'fashion' like Staffs. People notice them, new faces on the park raise suspicion & rescue dogs alsways have 'Green' tags so that story wouldn't work. She will be home soon.

- Just had a phone call from my husband who heard on radio 5 that the RSPCA in Ireland have just rescued 180 (?) 'fighting dog breeds'. All sorts were recovered including puppies, so I am going to ring them now. Does anyone have any contacts in the RSPCA?Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- You are so right, but as we are so sure she is in the GLoucestershire area do you think there should be purge here? I think I literally need to have people standing in the streets with posters handing them out to shoppers on a busy saturday. What do you all think? Any volunteers? I promise to take you all out to dinner afterwards!Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

It really gave me a boost as it will give Doglost the publicity it deserves and therefore all of us the publicity. Thanks for all your messages.

My thoughts are with you, I'm on BBC three counties radio tomorrow (wednesday 4th dec) and i'll give the website a big mention, hopefully people will come look at all the missing lads and lasses and who knows what may happen. Keep plugging away, posters ect thats all we can do, I'll keep my fingers crossed. xxxxxLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

We wernt to Cheltenham Racecourse today and put some posters out. also there were loads of walkers out today so we put the poster on all the parked cars we could find on our way between here and Cheltenham. all the people were out walking their dogs. Also she is in the newsletter of www.puppytime.co.uk who are a puppy training team in Cheltenham. They have loads of clients. Lets hope this is a happy New Year!Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Hi I have been watching Myrtle's Postings daily right from the start but have only just managed to login - (long story) . Don't ever give up hope , I think that with Marley missing too it proves from the response from both postings that there are a lot of Bullie Fans out there who are helping.Also there have been other Bullies recently.One was Harvey back in Sept who was sold by mistake and he came back and also Missy recently.I am in South Cambs but looking out up here too and hoping your baby comes home.I have a Min Bullie Puppy and know how precious they are.Stay strong . xLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- A little more media coverage is called for: Suggest BBC Radio Gloucestershire. Phone-in number is 01452 307575. Suggest you try John Rockley (9-12), Matt Peacock (12-3) and Trish Campbell (3-5). If you want to try the newsroom they're on 01452 307093. I would also suggest you email individual presenters - firstname.lastname@bbc.co.uk. Best coverage has often been a dog-loving presenter !!

(GREAT IDEA OLLIES MUM) I will also contact the puppy training class Abiee, yet another great idea. I have also contacted the police and although I don't want to get them involved to frighten away who has her, they are trying to trace 'the phone call' to at least an area to give me a better idea as to where we should be looking. xLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

After Dolly kindly passed on the number to me, I checked with them and the dog is a local pooch, known to the police as an escape artist. Has been reunited with its owner once more. xxxLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Hi Dolly. I haven't noticed any posters - I was in Pets at Home today and glanced at their noticeboard but didn't see Myrtle. If I had a working printer I would have taken one with me to put up. It's extremely frustrating (far worse for you i'm sure) that this woman would ring and not give you any info. I promise faithfully to look out for Myrtle on my walks both around Cheltenham and Winchcombe. I'm often approached by people who want to say hello to Sid, and will ask them to keep their eyes peeled for Myrtle. These dogs are so distinctive that people can't miss them. Just a thought, but have you rang any of the local dog training schools to see if any EBT pups have come in? I sent Sid to this one: http://www.puppytime.co.uk which is very popular in Cheltenham. I've put your mobile number in my phone in case I spot her!Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Abbie, yes I do mean Whaddon. I have looked around there and I have some friends who have 'friends' around there. They have asked around and apparently she is not there, but the lady on the phone said she didn't want to get involved and she wouldn't tell me where she was, but she did confirm that she was in the Gloucestershire area. She told me that she saw the psoter in her local shop. Have you seen any posters around, because if you haven't then I should put up some more!!!Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- I've been keeping my eyes peeled for Myrtle (I walk Sid around Cheltenham every day) - no sightings i'm afraid. Are you talking about Whaddon, Dolly Maude? Did the woman who rang give you some indication that Myrtle was there? If so, it might be worthwhile asking the Echo to run another(?) story - particularly seeing as someone has rung from Cheltenham claiming to have her. It can be presented in such a way as to pull on heart strings/conscience. Regarding knocking on doors in Whaddon, obviously take someone with you and be tactful, but I don't think it will be as bad as you think. I'm sure a few people will tell you to F Off, but the majority will be sympathetic. I think the main thing would be to say that you know she's in the area, rather than you assume that she is. The latter is likely to get peoples backs up. Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- It's not illegal, but bone fide market researchers are members of the Market Research Society and wear an identity card. They also don't generally cold call. Dee's suggestion of a college project is a good one - in fact people are probably less likely to shut the door in your face than with a real market researcher. You could do a questionaire on animal welfare. Make it multiple choice and no more than one side of A4. Go out in a team of three/four for security purposes and do it street by street. Pressgang a teenager so it looks genuine and make sure you know the name of the local college !!Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Dollymaude re knocking on doors - you need to be careful if area very rough. Might be easier if you have a particular road in mind to carry out some kind of survey? It's not strictly legal as you need consent to do that sort of thing from the council but could you have a child at college who needs to research dog ownership in the area and say people's thoughts on the DDA?? It might get you talking to people who have dogs... and who know dogs.Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

She says that she had her Rottweiller stolen and she knows just how I feel, and that she doesn't want to get involved as she obviously feels there has been 'foul play'. She said she would ring me back to make a meeting place so I could give her the money she spent on buying Myrtle ande I obviously agreed. Since then I have heard nothing. I am waiting by the phone with anticipation and the money in my paw but I cannot give it to her unless she rings me back!!! Help. Please ring...Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- The police came round today and we now have a crime number. They are telling all the Dog Handlers in the area. Apparently when a house is raided and there is a dog there, they automatically call for the dog handlers. He said that would be a better way to advertise her missing than going through the officers on the ground! Still trying but sadly losing faith...Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

She sounded fairly genuine but in a bit of a hurry, and think that possibly the reason why wshe rang was because of the reward.

- Dollymaude, yes I do find myself looking at every dog on a lead which can be very dangerous whilst driving but you can't help yourself. Your comment about the oxfordshire dog warden brings back painful memories, when Dolly went missing I contacted wardens in three counties and various other departments in the local councils, I have to say that south oxfordshire (male dog warden) council were the most unhelpful, not seeming to understand that a short drive or trek across country would take a dog across the county line!! All other dog wardens and departments were unbelievably helpful, my local dog wardens have been lovely to me. Dolly 6.2.05Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

Don't be downhearted - your baby WILL be found! xxxLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- I went to Barton yesterday and oput a poster in the Chip shop. There was no pub. I have been in contact with the Oxford Dog Warden. She assured me that if I had lost my dog in Glos.Worcs that it would not be in the Oxon area and that maybe I should be looking nearer to home! I told her about the sighting in Stanton St John. I will try and go to Wheatley tomorrow. Any other suggestions gratefully recieved. So near and yet so far!Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Just got in from my tour round Oxfordshire. I went to Stanton St John and I spoke to alot of the village. None of them know of a bullie in the area let alone a puppy. I then went to the village hall where the sighting had been and there was a man doing dry stone walling. he said he had 'definitely' seen a bullie puppy being walked at about 11am. She was on an extendable lead and the man with her was in his 40's. On the way to drop Ch4 at the train station we went via Barton which is the local crime hot spot and put a poster in the chippy, but couldn't find a pub...Fingers crossed and help also really needed in the Wheatley area if anyone knows anyone there. I will try and go back tomorrow.Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Great to see you yesterday Jayne. You are such a legend. Thank you for your support. I'm going to do the same in Evesham today!! Candy, thanks for you message. I so remember seeing your banner as we had just lost Basil. Do you find yourself going round horse trials and point to points only looking at what is at the end of all the leads? Nik, I have a friend who may be able to help me with an article in Horse and Hound so I will get on to it., and I will email unmissabull. Thank you all xLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Dollymaude yes that is us on Blunsdon Hill and Dolly is my dog. She has been missing since February 6th. I placed an ad in Horse and Hound a few months ago and have to say I didn't receive one phone call but that shouldn't put you off as it only takes one person to have seen Myrtle for it all to be worthwhile and where there are horsey people there are dogs. If you need to talk to someone in the same situation as yourself then please feel free to call me, my number is on Dollys' page (she is on page 30 at the moment), best to call my mobile.

- There seems to be a bit of a horsey connection going on here - I wonder if thats a lead worth following? Just in case, I will forward this onto my sister in Chipping Norton, and get her to put the word out about Myrtle. She knows a lot of the local hunt, and is involved in dressage (travels around a large area from comp to comp). Can't hurt to try. xxxLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Nik, we have had editorial coverage in the Evesham Journal, Cotswold Journal, Gloucestershire Echo and Western Daily Press. Each has run an article. It was suggested to me that I should put an article in the Horse and Hound titled 'if you are offered' . What do you think? She has also been put on a website called www.bulliesinneed.org.uk and they in turn have put her on another website but I can't remeber the name. Jayne is coming up today so hopefully she will have some wise words...Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Candy, did you have signs up at the side of the A419 as you are going up the hill to Blunsdon just before Swindon? We are only half an hour apart I also have horses and don't have a chance to do all the searching that I would like to. Thank you for keeping your eyes open. Is Dolly your dog? I'm not very up to speed with computer talk!Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- We all hope our babies are being looked after properly Dollymaude but all fear that they are not. I live on the A419 at Blunsdon not far from Cirencester so we are not terribly far from each other, will keep an eye out round here although I don't get out much as I have horses at home that take up a lot of my day. Hope you get some positive sightings soon. Dolly 6.2.05Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

I still haven' had ANY feedback from them...I fear that she has been gone too long now and that I will never see her again. I only ope that she is being looked after properly.Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Jayne, look forward to seeing you tomorrow. I was told of a sighting today, but the person said they saw a white puppy in Broadway 1 mile away, last saturday. I went down there and we have oads of posters up so I wonder if it was a different white puppy or even a polar bear cub!!!Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- I'm not aware that people knew where I got her from other than friends until she was gone. It certainly wasn't public knowledge. Excuse my ignorance but I take it Dog World is a Magazine. How would they have heard?! It was in the Western Daily Press, Glos Echo, Evesham Journal, Cotswold Journal and I'm going to put an advert in Horse and Hound. Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

- Thanks Candy, Linda, justlou, Ollies Mom, I can tell you have all been there before. I wonder if Myrtle is found will that bring back Basil too? He was 13 years old and a real Mummys boy. He would sit by the sofa at night and just stare at me! Myrtle is adorable, very snuffley and loving, but in the wrong hands she could get quite frantic I would think. I just hope that whoever has her doesn't ruin my baby girl...Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18
