COMMENT ON DOG THEFT AWARENESS COUNTY DURHAM FB PAGE...

Glynis Redfearn

The dog looked like a sandy coloured lurcher type dog it was on the pavement laid down. A arriva bus and two wagons were parked up. The police were there so ring spenny moor or newton aycliffe stations they might know who took the dog.

Thanks Lesley, I don't think it's Laddie as it has less white on its chest, however last time I seen him in person was 2010 so I'm going to ask owner to check photo. (Just to explain, I do the photographing for whippet racing and keep a database of dogs photos, hence me posting) thanks to those helping and who have made amendments so info is corrct.

Ive been given a description of the dog and it doesnt match at all. Hopefully he will be found really soon.

2014-01-30 13:19 Brocks Mummy

There are reports of a car accident and a dog being struck on the A167 this am, which makes me wonder if the dog could be Laddie? I will try to find out more...

2014-01-29 14:04 Jumanji - Co-ordinator.South.Yorkshire

There have been no sightings at all of Laddie since he vanished during a walk In fields at Thinford near Spennymoor.
Dog wardens have been informed and local holding kennels have been contacted and I have advised that they need to contact them regularly
Landline contact number amended as the one listed had a digit missing.
There is an advertisement for Laddie in today's NORTHERN ECHO .
Hoping this boy is found and back home very soon x

Sorry to see that LADDIE is missing.

• If your dog is microchipped please let the microchip company know that your dog is missing and check that all details are up to date.
• Owners targeted by a malicious hoaxer demanding money for the return of their dog should phone the police on 101 immediately and contact admin@doglost.co.uk
• A photograph of your dog is essential for the website. If you have not already uploaded one, please do so by clicking on Update details. Alternatively you can email it to admin@doglost.co.uk quoting the dog's DogLost ID number: (63830)
• Obtain a missing poster by clicking on View poster above. Posters are very important so start postering now!
• You will need to be logged in to upload photos, edit your dog's details, or add comments. You can add comments by clicking on Click here to add a comment.
