I see owner already spotted 55675, if you don't get a response from the page, you will need to phone the contact number. That beautiful dog does look like Sam, so fingers crossed for you. Alternatively if that is n ot Sam and there have been no sightings, it is time to up the ante. Spread the search much further, if he has been taken, could be anywhere. Contact local press, local radio station, get him on everyones watch list. Someone somewhere knows something.

Still no sign of Sam :(

Thanks Bobble, someone text me saying they spotted him the day he went missing near the macdonalds roundabout in Sparkford on the gree, since then no more sighting.

Going to Taunton today, due to road closure will go A303 way, however will obviously keep an eye out for Sam and take a few posters if I spot any opportune places, will drive back via Barrington Court area and look for him.

Thank you everyone, have already got my friends doing the rounds with posters today. Spend sunday evening and monday visiting all local businesses and leaving my number as well as contacting the warden and vets...can only cross fingers and keep getting the word out there with more posters

I am sorry to read that Sam has gone missing. It is important to get as many posters up as quickly as you can. Speak to delivery driver, postmen, milkmen etc and make sure lots of people know. Drive up to the Services and see if they will let you poster up there (if not there may be a wooden post somwhere you can poster). Do not underestimate the power of the posters. Contact your vet and let them know. I'm in BA4 a bit far, but will pop up a poster in the village and let people know.
