Absolutely delighted to report that GIGGS has been collected by his owner and they are now on a bus on the journey home .
A member of the public found him last Saturday ( the same day he went missing ) about 2 hours after he went missing over 30 miles from home minus his collar and ID tag !! He was scanned by the Hambleton District dog warden but at that point his owner hadn't altered his microchip details with Petlog.
I decided to contact Petlog last night and found he had been scanned by the warden and was able to pass contact between owner and dog warden.
This is a very good example of why it is so very important to always update your dogs microchip details as Giggs could have so easily have never been located
His owner is buying him a new collar and ID tag and will of course now be updating his microchip details
So with great pleasure I can now say welcome home handsome Giggs and please stay safe from now on xx

Giggs and his owner have only been living in the UK for 2 weeks and his microchip is still registered to Norway.
I have advised his owner that they need to get the contact details altered ASAP and have given them the numbers to call to do this and they will also be able to find out if anyone had scanned him since he went missing . Numbers also provided for dog warden and local holding kennels and owner advised to poster

Thanks Shelagh x I don't know if Giggs could have travelled that far but you never know the circumstances so worth checking out . I will send a photo of Giggs to the lady who sighted the dog this morning x

Edited to add the lady who sighted dog ID 92348 has looked at the photo of Giggs and doesn't think the dog she saw was Giggs Last edited: 2015-09-23 01:56:13 by Jumanji - Co-ordinator.South.Yorkshire
