Could this be Tips? It says that no microchip was found, but thats not unusual and still could be your girl. http://www.lostdogsuk.co.uk/assets/dog-reports/1480506796/30-0.RBWM-291116-0943.pdf

Just had a look and though very similar to Tips I don't think its her.....Tips is paler around her mouth, and her tail is bushy.
Thank you anyway its lovely to think people are still looking for her x

2016-02-22 22:54 Tintreach

similar looking female lurcher in Carlow Kilkenny pound Ireland
they would have checked for microchip, but worth looking into anyway I think

2016-02-08 17:14 JulieH

Would be great if it's Tips x

2016-02-08 17:06 Karen Woollard

Just emailed you a picture Penny. She's been taken away to Westend Farm, Buxhall, Stowmarket, Suffolk, IP14

2016-02-08 13:40 Karen Woollard

Sorry Penny at work at the moment will try and get a photo to you when home later, the person she is with is taking her to see if she's microchipped when she gets home from work after lunch today. Obviously if she is Tips you will be contacted x

2016-02-08 09:03 Penny

As we have had no sightings of Tips we are thinking she has been taken so she could be anywhere... jsbeejive@gmail.com

2016-02-08 07:32 Karen Woollard

Found in IP14 Suffolk Sunday 7th February 2016 a very emaciated lurcher/greyhound/saluki type female light honey coloured, all skin and bones wearing a collar looks very similar to Tips but a very long way away from where you lost your dog. Do you have an email?

2015-12-20 10:40 Penny

Thank you Fergal
Rang the numbers given but no reply so left message.
It does look like Tips but the dog in the photo looks a bit paler than tip she's more golden.

2015-12-19 00:01 DogLostFergal - Area Volunteer - Cornwall

Police appealing for owners to come forward. One in the bottom row, middle looks like Tips? https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1085240244827660&set=pcb.516840101812194&type=3&theater

2015-11-25 12:11 Penny

Recent sighting in Wellington was,unfortunately, a false alarm as there is a similar looking dog that is regularly walked/exercised in the local park.

Tips has now been missing since the beginning of October and I, along with friends, believe someone has taken her in and is looking after her. I'm desperate to get her back so if you have her or know who may have her please get her to the vets/local kennels to get her chip checked to confirm her details and/or phone 01884 35782. She can be collected from anywhere. Thank you all once again for your help

2015-11-22 20:45 Penny

No.....we keep looking and hoping.

2015-11-22 18:24 charlie and sooty

Has there been any further sightings or news on Tips please? x

2015-11-18 18:30 Penny

Not sure we will need to look at the feasibility as there are lots of dogs being walked in that area and wildlife.

2015-11-18 17:33 DogLostPoochpal - Regional Co-ordinator - South West - Police Liaison Team

Bumped due to the possible sighting, can a feed station be set up in a safe place close to the sighting?

2015-11-18 16:03 Penny

Possible sighting this morning in Wellington Park....Between Wellington and Rockwell Green. Been there all afternoon and put posters up.
Anyone in that area please look out for her.

2015-11-13 09:11 Penny

Thank you Niki

Will share on lost and found dogs Somerset as on boarder

2015-11-10 16:20 Penny

Sorry i've not been on here for awhile..... no updates, we have had no sightings of Tips - its now 5 weeks since she went missing and we are so desperate now.
With the kind help from a few people on here there are posters everywhere.

2015-10-28 16:53 Penny

I'm hoping the lady who rang me lunchtime on my mobile and left a message could call me back.... such a bad signal I couldn't get all the message or your telephone number.

2015-10-28 10:57 Penny

Possible sighting running along the A38 about 10 days ago, don't know direction.
Hopefully she is still in the same area.
Thanks again Jasper you are so kind.

2015-10-27 15:19 DogLostJasper - Area Volunteer, Somerset

Few more posters put up in a wider area - Neroche, churchstanton but they are rather sparse I'm afraid.Had a word with a postman and a forest worker who will tell his colleagues to keep an eye out. Great that you were able to get Tips in the local paper. I've got everything crossed!

2015-10-26 17:46 DogLostJasper - Area Volunteer, Somerset

Had a drive round and put up a few more posters. Was hoping to have a word with the men logging at top of Corfe and also the forest road down to blag don hill but I couldn't see them today. Have put posters near the shoot at the manor - lots of rough ground and pheasants everywhere which is reassuring. Hoping for some good news when the paper comes out.

2015-10-26 13:17 Penny

Been out searching around the Blackdown hills and Wellington monument over the weekend but nothing.
More posters are up.
It will be in our local paper tomorrow hopefully more people will see that.
A big thank you to Jasper for all your help.
Not sure what else we can.

2015-10-23 20:26 DogLostJasper - Area Volunteer, Somerset

Had a good drive round today but nothing to report. 25 posters up around the area so hopefully they might jog someone's memory. Tried to cover Taunton / Wellington side of blackdowns as much as possible. Went to the stables and asked them to spread the word- the lady I spoke to had seen the posters in uffculm. Do hope for some positive news.

2015-10-22 19:33 Penny

Thank you Jasper
We walked along the Beacon today spoke to many horse riders and dog walkers no sightings but at least more people know and are looking.
We moved a few posters from one area and put them around there and we are trying to get more information to pin point the location.
If you are fortunate to see her don't be surprised if she doesn't come to you because she is very timid.
I'm very grateful for all your help

2015-10-22 19:07 DogLostJasper - Area Volunteer, Somerset

Had a drive round today but no sign I'm afraid. Will poster general area tomorrow and hope they bring some sightings.

2015-10-22 10:27 DogLostJasper - Area Volunteer, Somerset

I will get some posters printed this evening and get them up tomorrow- hopefully there will be more news by then and we will have a better idea of which area to concentrate on. I will also have a drive around today. I will text you my mobile number later just in case you should hear anything

Hi Jasper
No we are not sure where but we are going for a drive this morning.
The people who saw her were riding horses in the area so if you know anywhere horse riding is it could be there.
Thank you very much its very kind of you.
If we find her or see her I will post on here.
Thank you

Penny, do you know where in the blackdowns the possible sighting was? I am in that area tomorrow so could have a drive round if you have any more info. I know the area fairly well so can go back with some posters but unfortunately won't have time tomorrow.

2015-10-21 16:19 Penny

Possible sighting of Tips Taunton side of the Blackdown hills
All we know is a Lurcher has been seen, people tried to catch it but it ran off.
If you are in that area please look out for her.
Many thanks

Penny, I have emailed the picture to you. It was on the ShoutOutCalne facebook page. EDIT. Thanks for looking Penny and Poochpal. Not believed to be Tips.

Thank you for the link 71Ceri, the one sighted on the link is believed to be male and has been in the that area for several months. Encouraging in so much as it shows how well these lurcher can survive on their own. There is more about him on this link http://www.doglost.co.uk/dog-blog.php?dogId=93118#.Vhvrg9pdE28

Update from owner:
Hi
Nothing really to update, posters have been put up in a number of locations and neighbours have put them in their car widows.
We continue to search but there’s not even been a sighting so far. My friend lives about 7-8 miles away so there is an outside chance that Tips is making her way across country.

Sorry to see that TIPS 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
