Happy birthday Fitz. Hope you will soon be reunited with your RIGHTFUL owners. Someone must know where fitz is. Post a LOST DOG ad in a national newspaper, and post as many posters as you can; where, and when you can; never too late. And miracles can and do happen. Aldo there is a retired Pet Detective called Colin Butcher who now works as a Pet detective, and resides in Surrey. He, and his dog Mollie have managed to track many missing and stolen dogs down. She is Cocker Spaniel. She is also the only dog in the UK who is trained to sniff out missing cats. And is very focused in finding any missing pets. As professional, not sure of costs, as he is willing to travel all over the UK, but said he is willing to give advice over the phone. Whether he can do any better than this great site? anyway it is an option. e.mail address is info@thepetdetectives.com. Telephone no. is 01403 753 463. Paws xd, for the safe return of Fitz x Last edited: 2019-09-29 11:00:01

Hi Hannah,
So sorry I missed your wave.
Do you know which dog warden was called, as I have no idea of the area you saw this staffy dog.
Thank you so much for all you did today, for Fitz or for someone else’s dog.
Not sure how to answer a wave on fb but would appreciate hearing from you please so I can follow this up.
Thank you
Louise xx

Hi Louise,

I've tried to get in contact with you on Facebook but have been unable to message you. Today I tried to catch a Staffie down in Eldene, I know that it may not be yours but it looks exactly like Fitzy, he has no collar on and I have contacted Swindon Borough Council. He ran off when I got close he is so frightened, I just got a call back saying he has ended up in someone's garden and the Dog Warden Is on his way to collect him.

I thought I would let you know just in case!! I saw this on the lost pet page and thought I would let you know!

(I was the person who gave you the random wave on Facebook because I couldn't contact you)

Hope he is found soon!!

Hannah

Dear Fitz has been missing a year today.
Thank you to you all who are looking at his page & to those of you who have shared his dog lost poster.
I pray where ever he is someone is caring for him.
I continue to share his doglost poster in fb in the hope we will find out some news on him xx
I still,don't know how to add other photos of him to this page?! Help please??
Louise
Hello, Fitz has small bits of white on his back toes both feet. He has a strong line of white on his chest.
I don't know how to add other photos of him. I am his breeder no longer his owner.
Thank you all for looking & posting his dog lost poster.
Coco
I was going to ask the same. Whole colour or markings on legs/ feet etc? Owner doesnt appear to be checking on here.
Diana1000
Are there any other photos of Fitzy, does he have any markings or is he one colour? Hard to see from the head shot photo if there is any other way of recognising him?

Sorry to see that FITZY MISSING SIX YEARS 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
  • A photograph of your dog is essential for the website. If you have not already uploaded one, please do so by clicking on Update details. Alternatively you can email it to admin@doglost.co.uk quoting the dog's DogLost ID number: (99028)
  • Obtain a missing poster by clicking on View poster above. Posters are very important so start postering now!
  • You will need to be logged in to upload photos, edit your dog's details, or add comments. You can add comments by clicking on Click here to add a comment.
  • Contact dog wardens, vets and local rescue centres, and in Scotland, the Police. Give a detailed description with any distinguishing marks/scars or send them a copy of your DogLost poster. You can find vets in your area here.
  • If your dog has been stolen inform the police immediately and obtain a crime reference number (CRN). Send an email to stolen@doglost.co.uk.
  • If your dog is picked up and taken to rescue kennels, it can be legally re-homed after seven days. Visit rescue centres in person and do not rely on checking by phone alone. Other people may not recognise your dog by your description, so give them a DogLost poster.
  • Keep us updated by keeping your dog's page up to date and check for posts from helpers who may have suggestions and possible matches or sightings
  • DogLost is free and anyone asking for money to find or return your dog is not volunteering for us. If you are concerned about an approach you have received, please email admin@doglost.co.uk
