God bless all those dear loved puppies that are away from their loving homes. We will get them home x I got a present today from an amazing friend I have met through Tinker and Hemp going missing, it said one word.

- Only just been able to get internet connection, but Hazel informed me and I am over the moon that Doug is home! Owners, I remember meeting you with Hazel at the Codicote show. It warms my heart remembering how we said dogs really do get home and to never give up hope, his chip will bring him home..... and it did. Took a long time, I know, but it did! Well done for having him chipped. You got him home! Hazel as usual, was like a dog with a bone and never gave up. You have all done so well getting through this terrible ordeal, because that is exactly what it was, and Doug is now home! I said to Hazel this is the best Christmas present you could ever have! Your fur baby is home! God bless you all. Kisses for Doug xxx.

- Brilliant news it gives hope,to those still waiting for news.
Merry Xmas to all.x - 2014-12-24 11:49 Me N My Girl - Administrative Volunteer
- So pleased for everyone concerned. We should be campaigning for all found dogs to be scanned and equally important for all dog wardens and collection agencies to post details and photos of all found dogs to give people a chance to reclaim their pets. Happy Christmas everybody, don't forget to get your chips updated and checked. Don't you just love this site and all the folk that make it work.

NC22 I have emailed you re your comments - 2014-12-24 06:13 Jayne - Founder Doglost.
- Thanks for the update Loobylou! Don't worry about the emotional response to my call...it was a pleasure to be able to break the good news to you...makes our job worthwhile....I love it when due to halo scanner feeding into our data of missing dogs chip numbers I get a call from a kennels saying we have just scanned a dog and its saying ring doglost...we then know its one of our missing dogs...so we feed the number into our system and wait with baited breathe for the results...when it comes up with a long term missing dog that I know owners and co-ordinators have been working on for a long time...its a WOW OMG feeling I straight away phoned Hazebella and she screamed with delight and broke the news to owner who was sobbing her heart out...in the meantime owners mother rang me about the other possible match in Frome...was able to say no its not Doug as Doug is in local kennels to you...silence then sobbing and screams of joy.....LOL!
Well done Hazel and well done Halo scanner.....Make sure next time you go to the vets that they have a halo scanner that can help others missing dogs get home. - 2014-12-24 00:02 Shelagh

- Brilliant news. So pleased for Doug and his family xx
- 2014-12-23 17:55 Happiness yorkie lover xxx
- My gues is either they were stolen to breed or just nasty people getting kicks from stealing DEFENSLESS dogs and causing upset to dog and owner x x
- 2014-12-23 17:47 rosiefrome
- Jayne - this is probably a really daft question - why do stolen dogs end up being dumped eventually? I can understand in early days when they are made 'too hot to handle' but wondering why after 10 months it happens. It might not be a question you want to answer on a public forum though!
- 2014-12-23 17:23 duffs54
- Fabulous news so pleased for Doug and his family what a Christmas they will all have xx
- 2014-12-23 17:09 Jayne - Founder Doglost.
- OOOH! cant wait for owners update and reunited photo!
- 2014-12-23 17:06 Jayne - Founder Doglost.
- Well done to Hazebella and helpers who have been working behind the scenes with Dougs owners...we were expecting Doug to be dumped at some stage..and are thrilled it is in time for Christmas and reunited via halo scanners liason with doglost.
- 2014-12-23 17:04 Unknown
- Doug is home owners will no doubt be on to update and we will get reunited pick sorted. Soooooo happy for them big welcome home Doug x x
- 2014-12-23 13:01 Sarah
- That is such wonderful, wonderful news. I shared and shared when he went missing as he is obviously such a dearly loved pet. His owners must be ecstatic!!!
- 2014-12-23 12:53 Unknown
- Absolutely echo what Jayne has said.ty so much to the kennels to checking and keeping Doug safe xLast edited: 2014-12-23 13:50:31
- 2014-12-23 12:20 Jayne - Founder Doglost.
- When this goes to reunited may I ask all owners of missing dogs on doglost to enter their microchip number which is only visible to us at admin and to halo scanners...so we can make this happen for their missing dogs as well....halo scanner will pick up the chip number from our data base and inform us if and when your dog is scanned. 50% of lost microchipped dogs on doglost do not have the numbers on!
- 2014-12-23 11:46 Unknown
- kind words ty. so glad the little one from Frome is safe i am sure he will have agood home very soon lovely furbaby. Only yesterday one of owners was saying all i want for xmas nothing else but Doug so glad her wish came true. It will give others hope for sure never to give up x
- 2014-12-23 11:43 rosiefrome
- He is somewhere safe now Hazebella - not sure how long for but hopefully he will find somewhere permanent to live if his 'real' home isn't a safe and loving one. I am so thrilled for Doug and his family and hope his story gives hope to others who are missing their dogs this Christmas. Just looking at mine now and so grateful doglost exists (god forbid we ever need it!) xx
- 2014-12-23 11:39 Unknown
- I really hope that little beauty from Frome gets the home so deserved bless him x
- 2014-12-23 11:39 Unknown
- Can confirm it is def Doug owners will be going over very soon and will wait for update from them to say they have him in their arms. We have been crying a lot been long emotional ride this one :) cant wait to have hug with this little man as well x
- 2014-12-23 11:28 rosiefrome
- Well I am sat here practically crying and keeping on pressing the refresh button and I knew nothing of Doug until last night!! Everyone must feel completely overwhelmed and happy :-) Last edited: 2014-12-23 11:33:33 by rosiefrome
- 2014-12-23 11:26 Jayne - Founder Doglost.
- Lots of happy tearful phonecalls going around....Hazebella will update shortly...and we are hoping to see a reunited photo with Doug back in his Santa outfit!
- 2014-12-23 11:11 rosiefrome
- Sounds like they are going to have a very happy christmas! The work you do here is so invaluable - thank you.
Hope same can be said for the dog found near Frome but suspect he has been bred, used for whatever needed for and dumped - but we can hope he has a loving home somewhere :-)Last edited: 2014-12-23 11:22:11 by rosiefrome - 2014-12-23 11:10 Jayne - Founder Doglost.

- 2014-12-23 11:02 rosiefrome
- Is the dog found near Frome him??! Would be so brilliant if he's been found :-)
- 2014-12-23 10:59 Jayne - Founder Doglost.
- A rescue with a Halo scanner has just scanned Doug and got in touch with us...Hazebella is trying to get in touch with the owners to break the happy news!

- This is a bit of a long shot - circulating on various Facebook pages today, described as a lurcher but someone has suggested it could be Doug. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152941939414127&set=gm.765008706913133&type=1
Vet has suggested he is about a year old and couldn't find a microchip but it seems worth checking still? - 2014-05-13 00:41 Unknown

- The found dog 65980 Lurcher states female but looks very much like Doug. Can this be double checked with SDK?
- 2014-03-12 10:24 User21
- I've since heard that the found dog is a bitch sadly... It's now with the Dacorum Dog Warden if that helps, and is on it's way to the vets as it has a rear leg injury. Not sure if there are any others reported missing in the AL / HP / LU postcode areas?
- 2014-03-12 09:48 Shelagh
- I really hope its him.keeping everything crossed for little doug

- I cam across a stray dog that looked similar to this one in the AL3 area last night. Its currently with a local policeman awaiting collection by the dog warden. I've passed on the 101 reference for him to look into.

- 2014-02-26 20:12 HedinghamHounds
- This looks too light to be him, and states no microchip, but have noticed sometimes not all scanners pick them up. http://www.lostdogsuk.co.uk/assets/dog-reports/1392914196/30-0.RBG-200214-1230.pdf
- 2014-02-23 19:36 HedinghamHounds
- Have put up posters in heartwood today. Have also checked gumtree adverts. Contact all the papers. Have you contacted all vets, goldline cabs are great as drivers will keep a look out. Contact pet shops in area as they might need to stop in for supplies. Good luck and I'd there is anything I can do please let me know. Selina 07980183220 xx
- 2014-02-23 19:13 jayliegh
- Yeah I will contact the Welwyn Hatfield Times and get them to post him in there hopefully that will attract them! I'm prepared for calls II think dodgy calls rather than no calls so we know they have seen the posters. Ok I will look out for the information at work tomorrow thank you for your help x

- 2014-02-23 18:25 Kimmybear - Area Co-ordinator, Essex & Hertfordshire borders
- Get this baby in the papers make sure the reward is advertised, but be prepared for some dodgy calls as well. You'll need to work with it but it can be done. You need to make him too hot to handle. I know Hazebella will tell you everything you need to know, but I am going to send you some links from other stolen dogs now recovered. This may well assist you. x Last edited: 2014-02-23 18:36:36 by Kimmybear - Area Co-ordinator, Essex & Hertfordshire borders

- Thanks for alerting unfortunately that isn't our Doug x
- 2014-02-20 20:50 ClaireC
- Certainly worth a look but cannot see any white on your dog's chest unlike the found one. Sometimes different scanners just don't pick some chips - frustratingly. Good luck Last edited: 2014-02-20 20:54:07 by ClaireC
