The one chipped to Devon was in Milton Keynes and an older boy x
sidewater
you beat me to it Sarah, why should Forest lodge be selling it when it's chipped to someone in Devon anyway.
Sarah
There is a dog at Forest Lodge Kennels, chipped to Devon. I know on the post it's put that yours isn't chipped but just in case there is an error thought I would mention it. https://www.facebook.com/ForestLodgeKennelsRescueRehoming/photos/a.447967051945650.1073741828.447608458648176/690707521004934/?type=1&theater

Any more news? is he still missing?
Seeks
Sorry I have only just seen him...Have shared him to Pup's page but also asked for help on the ground as you probably need it?

I so hope he is found soon and just wish I was nearer x

Stay safe beautiful boy xxx

We've had a good deal of heavy rain, so scent would be compromised. Owner knows to contact local dog wardens thanky you both, please keep spreading the word.
Foxcote

Fingers crossed
