He'll be ten or eleven months old by now, so no use looking for a puppy...I remember him going missing but I'd hoped he'd been found by now.
Eliza
hello. I don't think the dog I seen was Richie. I am very sorry. The Dachshund I spotted was bigger in size? It looked older than 4 months old and was the ginger brown colour. I am sorry.

If anyone on twitter, could try peter Andrea as he has a large following apparently, and animal lover too,Sorry I don't understand how twitter works otherwise I'd do it to try and get Richie home
teresa
This is a link to Derek Acorah's Facebook page where he has shared a link about Richie. https://www.facebook.com/derekacorahpage?rf=108149852546441 Scroll down the page and look for Richie's photo (May 5th) and there is also a link to Doglost website. So far there have been over 40 shares of this post.

#stoppettheft
I've tried to tag a few in my RTs - Simon Cowell ignored me lol ! Jill Franks is still missing Scruncher & she RTs some of mine - Ricky Grvais is an animal lover but hasn't RT any of mine - Paul O'Grady DID 'favorite' a Tweet of Rex the Pup - I am still learning all this tho - i only began 'tweeting' a short while ago to RT many of these dogs - we also have a #HelpFindThem Tweetathon on Fri. evenings
charlie
Pity there isn't a well known celebrity that would get on board to find Ritchie, as I don't understand how twitter really works but can't people follow celebrities??

He is automatically added to scanner angel's database
Valerie and Ian
As regards your use of local and national papers have you considered putting something in the Liverpool Echo and the Manchester Evening Post. The thought is that if heaven forbid some one has him, these papers cover areas just after where the Blackpool & Preston papers finish. Also have you tried getting him on The Bay radio station as that covers North of our area. Hope and pray he is found safe and well..Last edited: 2014-03-26 07:51:37 by Valerie and Ian

Don't forget to add little Richie on to Scanner Angel register, will alert vet/etc to the fact that Richie is a stolen dog when scanned. Hope he is home with you soon.
