Such a sad evening to check up on the dogs I have been following and sharing to friends who might have seen them and find that your chunky monkey Mac has gone to fly free forever. Your hearts must be in bits tonight - you have done so much to help locate him safely - RIP handsome Mac x x

How sad. My thoughts are with Mac`s family. Night, night handsome lad, sleep tight, and have fun in the warm sunshine with the other "Rainbow babies": at least you have been able to lay him to rest, and have not lost Mac forever as one day you will meet Mac at the bridge; you will never be parted. RIP+ God blessx A~~~Candle~~~burns for Mac. Run free sweetheartx

So sorry to hear your sad news. RIP handsome boy. I was just thinking about him when driving home tonight. It's not much comfort but at least he is home now. x

Absolutely devastating news that Mac was found this afternoon so close to home and has gone to Rainbow Bridge. My deepest sympathy to Anne and Andy for all that they did reaching out to so many people. We have all been very touched by this, but tragically it should end so sadly. Run free at Rainbow Bridge you beautiful boy...your star will shine brightly ever more. xxxx

2014-01-01 23:35 Wolds Pack

I live in the area so will keep my eyes peeled when out walking my collies. Have also put picture on Facebook. Hope you have some good news soon. Have passed details around dog training/agility friends and emailed our vets at North Thoresby. Unfortunately I don't have a printer to print posters. I can inform NE Lincs Council dog wardens if you haven't already when I go to work tomorrow

No sightings yet - please keep looking if this is your area or you are visiting the area. Thank you

2014-01-01 09:49 DogLostClaire Gresty - Area Co-ordinator & Police Liaison - North West

I'm not local to you but shared Mac on FB and twitter. Hope you get your gorgeous boy home safe x

2013-12-30 13:05 sallybee

Please can I ask everyone, everywhere to keep an eye out for Mac. Extensive searches everywhere, with everybody local notified and not a sight or sound. He has just vanished. He might have been picked up and now, could be in your area. Mac's mummy has created a wonderful FB page with more pictures 'Mac the Missing Black Labrador'
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Mac-the-Missing-Black-Labrador/1452282511658752
so please I urge you to notify his family if you see or find a Labrador like Mac. He is chipped....... the family desperately need him home, and his old 12yr Labrador companion is missing him terribly which is of great concern. Thanks.

2013-12-28 17:55 sallybee

Thank you to my fellow searchers today and their lovely Spaniel - unfortunately no sightings, so Mac is still out there, somewhere. Areas covered today were North of Market Rasen - Glentham, Snitterby, Waddingham, Osgodby, Claxby and all villages/hamlets east and west off A46 between Market Rasen and Caistor. Every dog walker, horse rider and anyone in the street has been alerted to him missing. Posters are up.
If you live Nettleham, Moortown, North or South Kelsey or even Caistor, please keep an eye out for Mac.
Mac is from working stock - a stunning, fit 3 year old Black Labrador - he is micro-chipped. If you find him please contact his owner on the above number immediately.
He might have been picked up and therefore now out of the area - please keep an eye out for this stunning dog and let's try and reunite him with his family.
He has been away from home now 4 nights after the storms damaged the garden fence and his old companion is pining and not eating through missing him, and his family are very worried now for his welfare too.

Would love to join the search party but have an appointment at the vets to get the stitches removed from my spaniel in the morning. Hope lots of people turn up. Good luck.

****SEARCH PARTY NEEDED TOMORROW (28th)****

There will be a search of the area tomorrow

Meeting point: Cedar Lodge LN7 6AH (off the A46)
Meeting time: between 8 and 8.30am

2013-12-27 18:45 sallybee

I've been in touch and we have a search party organised for tomorrow morning. If anyone who lives local to LN7 (Market Rasen, Glentham, Waddingham and area) please contact owner on above number. This is a vast area to search - very rural and several roads so any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

2013-12-27 15:50 AlisonH

So sorry it wasn't Mac.

2013-12-27 13:34 sallybee

I've just read it wasn't Mac......sharing on FB for friends in Market Rasen area as last sighting heading in that direction.

2013-12-27 12:01 AlisonH

Just spoken to the owner and she has been told there is a black lab in cliff kennels but so far she has been unable to find out if it is Mac as they are not picking up the phone or returning messages.

2013-12-26 08:46 AlisonH

No he didn't have a collar on.

2013-12-26 01:07 sallybee

OK thnx. I'm not too far so can be over pretty quick to lend a hand if needed. Main thing is to continue searching and ask neighbours in the village/surrounding farms to keep an eye out just incase, with so much woodland around he could be seeking shelter. Is he wearing a collar?

Sallybee I have spoken to the owner and she said to thank you for offering to help search but she doesn't think there is any point as Mac could have gone in any of 3 directions from where he went missing. The owner has been out with their other dog and the scent went dead so they think he may have been picked up by someone. She is going to ring round all the kennels, vets and councils but that will not be until Friday as they are all closed.

sallybee thank you for offering to help with Mac, it would probably be best if you contact the owner direct for an update x

2013-12-25 13:45 sallybee

Helen, Alison, please let me know if you want me to go over tomorrow to search if there is no news Mac has come home today and I'll see what I can do to help - Helen perhaps PM me? xx
