Yes, I agree it was an absolutely lovely thing to do, especially when trying to come to terms with their grief.
LisaMell
I was very touched to see a Thank you advert in our local paper.Lovely family to think of doing that at such an awful time and when they are so upset. It says they think Larch may have had a heart attack very shortly after he went missing.xxx

Mollychops, please tell them that sometimes our fur loved ones have to go to heaven, when they get the call, without owners present because if they were there, it would be too hard to leave. They love them so much. Always together, forever. xxx

God bless Larch xxxx

Thank you Mollychops. I thought it may perhaps give some comfort to the family, after they have grieved for a little while of course. We sometimes hear people say that their pets "Were just like part of the family" I disagree "They are/were part of the family" Run free Larchx

Heartbreaking. I am so very sorry, and my thoughts are with the family at this sad time, but who do at least now have closure.

Condolences to the family. RIP+ Larch, and have fun at the bridge. God Blessx

Please do not be sad that I died alone
As a beautiful Angel came, and took me to my "Forever home"

I knew when you laid me in my last resting place
As i looked up at you, and saw your tearstained face.

I knew it hurt you when I had to depart
As I held out a paw, to try, and mend your broken heart.

Let me give you some comfort. "Please listen to me"
One day you will be reunited with a black handsome lab. "Yes" that`s right "Me"

God bless

From

Im terribly sad to be posting this. Dear Larch's body has been found when owners were out walking in the woods with their other dog. Ive just spoken with his wonderful owner. They are all very saddened but now will be able to draw some comfort from the fact they have at found him . They worked so very hard looking for him , chasing every lead that they got. Thanks to everyone who helped search for Larch, and emailed and rang with possible sightings . Sleep in peace Larch XX

Thanks LisaMell, Larch's owners are still working really hard to find him. I had a call from a lovely gentleman today who saw a black lab on the Abergavenny to Brecon Rd . It was running loose down a very busy road , and therefore he was unable to stop. I will get alerts sent out to this area , as its not that far as the crow flies from Hereford. Ive alerted owners and they will be checking this out .
LisaMell
just checking in to see if any news of larch. Checked posters at weekend and still up in local shop etc.Thinking of the family and really hope the calls lead to some news xxx
Mollychops
Owners have had a couple of calls and are followng them up. A lady from wales believes she may have seen Larch , and another lady has seen a similar dog on a rescue page

A bit of a distance but a male black labrador is listed as found on this website postcode area: TA24 http://www.lostdogsuk.co.uk/assets/dog-reports/1364985343/30-0.WSDC-020413-1116.pdf (says not chipped) I thought it worth letting you know though.

I’ve found that it helps to print out an A4 sheet of paper cut into business-card size slips, each with brief details and your phone number on. Give them to all the local dog walkers, postmen etc. you meet. Then if someone has news when they’re out and about they don’t need to find a poster or log on to the site to contact you. Glad he's microchipped and hope he's home soon - been gone too long :(
bagginsandsam
Sorry - it is dog ID AFP145639 and wearing a multicoloured fabric patterned collar. But no breed details.
bagginsandsam
There is a black dog (no breed or other details) listed as found in Bristol over the last few days on the Animal Search website. A very long shot but possibly worth checking at least.

Advertised in this weeks Countryman's Weekly magazine. I hope it brings some news.

Black lab found North West. dog lost ID 50277 Long shot but if picked up and moved out of area. Also cutting microchip out is common!

Thanks for the update Mollychops. Im so worried about this boy.Its so very cold here at the mo.If the owners need any help in searching please let me know as am around all Easter weekend and can muster a few troops together if needed. Wonderful news that JB is going to try to get up here.have spread the word around the horsey community and have a poster in my car.Fingers crossed.xxxx
Mollychops
Thanks Lisamell Ive spoken with owners again this morning, its 16 days now since Larch went missing, they are doing an amazing job,still very focussed on finding him. so many people are aware now of Larch . Fab helper JB from Kent has offered to come up to Herefordshire and track Larch, this week, hopefully weather permitting, and theyve had 4 inches of snow
LisaMell
Popped posters up in shops in Canon Pyon and Weobley last night. lady in shop said everyone was aware of Larch missing and that their had been sightings of him but she wasnt sure where and that the owners were aware of this.Gentleman who cam in said as well that lots of people are keeping eyes open for him. heavy snow here last night so hopefully he found a warm shelter. Come on Larch...Too cold to be out in this....Will do country park at dinmore tomorrow.xxx
Mollychops
Thanks Lisa mel, Im bumpingLarch's page due to an ad in the Hereford times today
LisaMell
Hi, Just to say have put some posters in the car to put up in the area.Their are some in shops etc but will pop one up if nothing displayed.If the owners need any help please let me know.Hoping this gorgeous boy is home soon.xxx
Mollychops
Owners havent heard anything yet, but they have covered a lot of ground in the search for larch.Its probable he is lost in this vastly wooded area, having run out of the area he knows.Many people in the area have been alerted, farmers, walkers etc, Ive suggested putting something in the paper too.
