What brilliant news. Stay safe now Leo. xxx
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
Brilliant! Well done Jenny & Tiga such a fab outcome, you are amazing. Well done Leo for staying local & Ruth for finding him. X
Rhodri
Without any doubt at all it was the combined effort of Jenny and Tiga (www.k9tracker.co.uk) that convinced us that Leo was within a mile or so of home - this after a fifteen mile loop of the area which Tiga followed last Friday,27th.
Leo was found in a copse in a field full of sheep (he was scared of them!) by my sister, the previous owner, who had come all the way from Portugal to find him. Just half a mile from home!
Shelagh
Fantastic news. Welcome home sweet Leo Well done to owners who worked so hard to get there boy back. They must be delighted
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
I'm soooo happy what brilliant news to wake up to. Looking forward to hearing the full story. X
Mollychops
Fantstic news!! Please update us Rhodri on what happened. You have worked so hard to find your lovely boy. Im so pleased he is safe !
Rhodri
He's "Found" and "Reunited". Thanks for this wonderful website.
Rhodri
He's home! Thanks to you all for your positive encouragement and thoughts.
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
That sounds encouraging. Hope Leo will be home safe & sound very soon x
Rhodri
Tracking went well, covered a 15 mile loop. Jenny of the opinion that he remains local and will have another go probably Monday. All walkers welcome this weekend, especially within a three to five mile radius of Burchetts Green BUT, sightings only please, do not spook him.
Lindsay750
How did the tracker dog go today? Is there anything anyone can do? Walk that area or is it best not too? We're about all weekend, have lovely friendly dogs, as I heard he prefers dogs to humans.
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
Had a text from owner about 2 hours ago they were still at it having started at 9.45! Sounded like they were staying fairly local. Will update again when I hear more. So hoping for good news x
coops
Anyone know how it went today?
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
So pleased Jenny & the amazing Tiga are coming tomorrow. Stay safe Leo until you're found, hopefully soon x
Mollychops
Bumped due to press. Tracker Jenny and Tiga coming tomorrow
DogLostNina
What do you think about trying for a spy in the sky drone instead. Ig you google there may be one listed for your area who could help.
Rhodri
Desperately trying to find a paid Dog Tracking Service which can start work immediately. Surely someone must know. We've tried the obvious ones.
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
Brilliant coverage in local paper sure that will help. Come on Leo let's get you safely home x
Rhodri
Owner confession: been so busy since last Friday have only just found this comment page. Still no sightings since Sunday. Poster now in Maidenhead Advertiser page 3 and flashing banner on their website.
Skywalker99
means tracker dogs, try www.k9tracker.co.uk
coops
From owner this morning - No sightings since Sunday. Setting up facebook pages and it's going in the paper. Looking for trackers (not sure what he means... people who can track?)
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
I have had a text this morning. No news yet unfortunately. I have asked that they double check chip contact details up to date & that they speak to SDK & check their found dogs & that they speak to highways & railways. Stay safe Leo x if any sightings can people call owner immediately please on number above
coops
any news this morning? I don't want to text the owner again if other people have already
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
We're not sure if it was Leo or not in White Waltham. It was getting dark and the lady who kindly reported seeing the dog thinks the colouring may have been different and didn't see the trailing lead which he still had on yesterday. Stay safe Leo until you're caught x
JulieH
Fingers ,paws ,all crossed!

Hi out looking in Maidenhead Thicket this morning. No sign. Any luck??
Lindsay750
The area the dog has covered already is massive, hopefully someone walking may spot him.
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
That's right Mollychops, I just checked with owner too. I will update the page as soon as I hear from him with any.
Mollychops
I don't think so, owner texted earlier to say nothing over night/this morning .
Lindsay750
Any sightings since cherry garden lane yesterday lunchtime??
SamH
Really hope so he looked so scared poor boy
BorderCol
SamH, I think he might go to her. It's a breed which forms deep attachments.
SamH
Fingers crossed he comes to his old owner. Stay safe Leo
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
Brilliant Lindsay. Alot of locals now seem to be aware. Just hoping he stays safe until caught
Lindsay750
We went out walking with our dogs in that area this afternoon, have told loads of people who were also out walking, and a dog walker, she's going to tell others too. I've told them to phone owners if seen as its a nervous dog.
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
Unfortunately no more sightings today. He seems to be staying close to home. Seen at Cannon Lane, Woolly Firs, Cherry Garden Lane, Burchetts Green Lane and the A4 (worryingly). He has to cross the A4 to get from BGL to the other sightings. Home is Burchetts Green Road which is where he escaped from. Owners have done a great job of postering locally. They are hoping that he will come to previous owner, who had Leo for 2.5 years, who flies in tonight. Fingers crossed x
Mollychops
That's wonderful thanks Nicky . wish I wasn't sat here in Cirencester , and was out with you guys in the field .
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
Seen 30-45 mins ago woolly firs. We are walking in area now. Owners sister arriving tonight from Portugal who was Leo's previous owner
Lindsay750
Any more news/sightings??
Mollychops
Fantastic, so hope he allows himself to be caught, thanks for updates !
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
Seen cherry garden lane 30 mins ago.
Lindsay750
He was in burchetts green lane around 11am. He ran into a field with hay piles in it, just past a house with building work being done on it. He was loose on the A4 before this.
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
Heading over to Burchetts Green now x
SamH
Seen down Burchetts green lane unfortunately couldn't get near him and lost sight of him saw the owners who are there looking for him. Fingers crossed
coops
Owner thinks he may be holed up in Ashley Hill area of Burchetts Green if anyone knows it and can help look.
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
I have text owner who confirms he has not been seen today.
Mollychops
No at all a silly question. Ive left a message a while ago re the chip, not heard anything. Thanks Jytte
DogLostJytte - Area Volunteer - West Yorkshire
Have shared all over Facebook, Rhodesian Ridgeback pages/groups
coops
Silly question, but presumably his chip has up to date UK details?
DogLostNicky - Area Co-ordinator London, Home Counties & Police Liaison
Thanks. Mollychops I have sent you an email via admin x
Mollychops
Last sighting was around 8.45 last night 200 yds or so from owners house. Owner was able to get close, but not close enough.
