- Somebody found Bella 40yds from where she was originally lost. She still had her collar and lead on amazingly! She is absolutely fine just a bit thin. She is back to her cheeky self now!! The day before Bella came home I had an animal communicator and healer talk to Bella, one to find out whether she was still alive and two whether she was with someone else. The lady confirmed to me that she was alive and that no one else had her. She had no injuries and was a bit dehydrated! She also said Bella had strong memories of me so she put all her energy into focusing Bella on us and to go back to where she got lost. The lady said if she is not home with in 24hours ring back, this was at 8pm on monday night, at 11am on tuesday she was found. Whether this had anything to do with Bella coming home or not (i think it does) it gave me hope as was beginning to think the worst!! Thank you everyone for all of your support, especially my dad who was out all hours making gadgets, strimming and searching along with me and my mom!! Also hanks to all the volunteers and people who helped me poster etc. I am so pleased to have my puppy dog home!! xx

- I'm told someone who works for the owner of Bissell wood spotted her, -looking disorientated....and caught her...and the rest is now happy history. Don't think I've stopped grinning since I heard the news ! Why does happy news like a dog being found - always make me cry ?

- So so lucky! Bella must have been holed-up for those 15 days. Found just 40 yards from where she went missing, in spite of all the strimming of undergrowth and cameras down holes! The owner spoke to a pet communicator just the night b.4 - who told her that Bella WAS still alive, wasn't rehomed - and was thinking about her owners! Then bingo! Makes you think. So many happy messages coming in over the Worcestershire f.b horse sites !

- After walking our dog Flo at staklyn field today & seeing/reading the poster for Bella, we felt the need to say - Don't give up hope! Flo went missing two & a half years ago for a period of 3 weeks. Thankfully through Dog Lost & local advertising, she was found safe & well. If but a bit skinny & in need of a good bath! You will find her, we will keep looking & continue to spread the word. Good luck, all the best xx

- We have had two possible sightings of Bella one today and one last week both in the same area. The sighting was on the road named Lawnswood which is between the A449 Wolverhampton Road and Lawnswood Road near Wordsley. Both people have seen photos and think it was Bella she had a red collar on. We have postered this area today and will continue to do so. We will also begin to call local vets etc for this area.

- Well done on getting Bella in the Kiddi Shuttle. I hope you get a response. I've also sent her advert off the Countryman's Weekly and will bump her page when it's published if she's not already found.

- The last 2 days I have been strimming the thick brambles where Bella entered. I have not found any areas that she could have gone to ground. I will continue over the next few days. Tomorrow an advertisement will go in The Kidderminster Shuttle with a picture of Bella and a description. Hopefully this will aid a swift return of Bella. We are continuing to search every evening and are hopeful we will get Bella back.

- I received a phone call today where a lady thought she had seen a dog matching Bella's description down Tanwood lane near Bluntington loose and heading towards Drayton. Me and my daughter went looking and could not see her. We did however she a small black terrier in a close property who is generally loose but the owner did not think her dog was on the road that the caller told us. We have put up posters in the area and will continue looking because it may be Bella. We would like to thank everyone for their advice and support.

- Found my password at last!!!
I've been trying to help find this doggie. I contacted the owner and told them to register here on D.L. and helped poster last Saturday evening, a circle around Bissell Wood. I've also contacted other Horse Sites on f.b. and asked members to help search. My instinct is that Bella is down and hole or snagged lead in the wood. The owners have been postering, searching, and doing their best. I wish I knew of a sniffer dog to take along. - 2013-06-16 16:29 belladog
- Bella is still missing. Posters have been put up in surrounding areas. A huge thankyou for your ongoing support

- I have been looking in the fields between Bissell wood and Offmore estate in Kidderminster and Stone.I have also been around Mount Segg. My daughter and her friend Nicki have taken a dog who is friendly with Bella around Bissell wood today. Unfortunately Bella still has not been found. My wife and daughter have today been putting up posters around the area and they have also given some to various shops,pubs etc. around the area. A lady called Nola has also been very helpful giving advice and also putting up posters. Again I would like to thank everyone for their support.

- I would like to thank everyone for their efforts. I have been checking around Chaddesley Corbett tonight where I walk Bella daily to see whether she she has managed to head towards home. My brother has been checking around Hurcott nature reserve t tonight with no sightings by both of us. I have been searching around Bissell wood area 2 or 3 times a day from Monday to Thursday. I have checked the immediate area she ran into looking for holes that were big enough and deep enough for Bella to get in and I used a microphone on a 4 foot stick which plugged into an amplified set of headphones however I could not hear anything in the holes. My wife and daughter have created about 300 posters which are being put up in shops,garages etc and we will be putting up laminated posters tomorrow around the area.

- Bennyboy, Trace67, and myself took my dogs Ozzy & Deli back to GZ at Bisell Wood and had a good look around, and through, the woods; but no signs. Saw Mr Copes on his long drive where Bella first ran and made him aware. Also talked to some nice folks at the stables over the road by the dog kennels. Need to get some posters up for the paintballers and horse riders. Posters would also be good near the bridge towards Mount Segg where a lot of dog walkers and joggers go.

- Just been to Private Bissell Wood and checked the 75 acres without success. This is the paintballing wood, but I explained to Ken and he allowed me in to look. He lives in the house by the left hand entrance to this wood. His landlord is the owner who lives in Reading. He whistled this morning without success. Ask Ken if you want to check this wooded area. I drove slowly along the lanes on my way back to Pedmore.
