Am sharing for Cleo on Twitter and Instagram, could owner check the phone number here on the DogLost poster is still valid as it’s a different number to the ones on the poster they are using on their Facebook page. Just thought important In case any info comes forward. Also make sure microchip info is up to date with the right phone number. Paws crossed

Missing one year. Bumping up posts & making new one for Long lost/stolen spaniels 😓

Beds Police have recovered some dogs and not all identified yet. I know this page says Cleo was microchipped but sometimes the efficacy of them "wears off" I think. Look at Beds Police FB page as several spaniels on there

Cleo in the press after the Pet Theft Debate in Parliament:

An MP has called on the government to make pet theft a crime after a dog was stolen from Wherwell.

Cleo, a blue roan cocker spaniel, went missing on September 16. After an extensive search by villagers, including the use of drones, found nothing, her owners Lindesay and Jeanne Rudd-Clarke now believe she has been stolen.

Their call to criminalise pet theft has now reached parliament, with their MP, Caroline Nokes, calling the theft of animals, and Cleo in particular, “a wicked and despicable crime.”

From Clarkey on 10th "I have updated Cleo as Stolen and sent the Police Incident no to DogLost by email"
SandyW
And there's a message below from Clarkey, to say this was emailed to doglost on 10th - which is exactly why I commented below
DogLostSandra Watt
SandyW ..only the Dog Lost stolen team can change the status and this is done after the crime reference number is emailed to them at stolen@doglost.co.uk. Unfortunately they cannot incident numbers :(
SandyW
I believe the police incident reporting Cleo as stolen has been provided... could this record be amended to stolen, rather than lost ?
Happy hounds
Deeply upsetting. Horrendous, cramped conditions. I hope they get reunited asap. 😢
DogLostSandra Watt
Clarkey ...you need to highlight the facebook link and then right click to get to the page with photo or copy the link into your browser.
The photos are all over facebook now and here is the wording "These 9 dogs were seized by Gardaí at checkpoint in Waterford yesterday..
Crammed into cages in back of a Volkswagen Sharan people carrier ...Driver arrested.
These dogs are now in the care of Waterford SPCA...
ANYONE MISSING Spaniels,a Terrier or Labrador please check..

I have updated Cleo as Stolen and sent the Police Incident no to DogLost by email.

Owners have placed a large 'stolen' advert in this week's Andover Advertiser. Really do hope this brings some good news.
Would be lovely if the owners would update this page with what progress, if any, they have been able to make.
Also, as she is now classified as stolen, please notify DogLost of the Crime Reference Number so that her status can be changed.
AnaGee
Cleo's owner is seeking a local sniffer dog on his personal FB profile. Can anyone advise?

'Find Cleo - Wherwell 8 hrs ·
Guys, We need your help!!
It was initially thought that cleo may have become caught up as the area she went from is dense woodland. Extensive searches have been carried out. The use of thermal equipment, drones and thorough ground searches have unfortunately proved fruitless.
We now have two other avenues to Pursue.
One is that cleo is running scared and just isnt being seen. Last week We had two sightings of a dog in and around cowdown Lane/A303/picket twenty. The area has been littered with posters and again the area has been searched numerous times uncovering nothing. All I will say is that harwood forest is vast. She could go for the most part undetected but the question still remains. Why hasn’t she made her way home?
The second avenue and The Avenue which is unfortunately looking more likely is that on Wednesday 16th September, Cleo was stolen. Perhaps her finder hasn’t yet contacted the dog warden? Cleo is wearing a collar with a tag on it. Whoever found Cleo that day has the means to do the right thing..
One of Cleo’s owners is 85 years old and is left heartbroken at the loss of his best friend.
Has anyone bought a dog similar to Cleo recently? Perhaps a neighbour or a friend?
Cleo has a family and will want to go home to them. Her family are desperate to have her back. You can call us in confidence or hand her to a vet or shelter..
Further to that we would like to reach out to anyone with dash cam footage that was driving in and around Wherwell on the 16th. Please check your devises to see if there was anything out of the ordinary going on or something odd that you drove past.
We would like anyone with cctv to check their cameras. Was anyone around that shouldn’t have been on the 16th of September Or the days leading up to it..
I have attached a map of the area someone with a vehicle would have had to be in order to be able to take her. The area is easily accessible on foot or by vehicle.
Cleo went missing around 9am on that Wednesday. School run kind of time.
please keep sharing cleo’s page. We will not stop until cleo is home. We are urging the local Community to continue to look out for cleo even if she was stolen she may well be put back into the area to find her own way home.
Please send across any dogs you have seen on selling pages / adds etc that resemble Cleo. Cleo has distinctive markings. She is chipped and has been spayed. The add may be deceiving and suggest she isn’t spayed or is older / younger than she is..
Thank you team Cleo. We really appreciate all of your support xx

The landowners and Gamekeeper are still continuing to look for her on the private land. There are public pathways other people can walk but the landowners request that nobody moves off the right of ways.
The owners have offered a reward for her safe return. It would be unlikely but not impossible that she was picked up and sold on to an innocent buyer.

Sammie
Yes the other dog has been there so has many local so has the Gamekeeper so has the landowner and myself.Last edited: 2020-09-19 13:26:46 by Sammie

Might be a bit obvious, but presume you have been back to location where she disappeared, just with your other dog, her best mate, to see if he or she will pick up her scent and take you to her...joanx
Sammie
There have been no sightings even though there has been searches and the land owners and game keeper of the land looking.
The area last seen is by the old railway line (permitted pathway that’s well used) and the old banks of the train line are extremely steep in some places with a bit of landslide and many old trees and bushes. The mound / land on the top is quite overgrown but has been looked at many times and the GK has been in there too.
I have been there searching till very late whilst it’s silent but only found a cat and a deer. But we did pick up the noise of both easily and as Cleo has a tag on I would have expected to hear the smallest movement of it and haven’t.
A drone has been used yesterday and I was told one was up today but tbh the view accross the fields is quite good as not been ploughed yet.
There is a risk she was “taken” as only the other dog returned when requested and it would normally be Cleo who returned first.
As I previously wrote; this is very very close to her home where she has always lived so should of returned, so she has either encountered some difficulty or has been taken.
Sammie
First to settle the dispute of location. It IS SE, but we are almost on the boarder “ Andover is located in the county of Hampshire, South East England, six miles west of the town of Whitchurch, 17 miles west of the major town of Basingstoke, and 62 miles west of London. Andover lies four miles east of the Wiltshire border.”

The Dog Warden is aware, the landowner is aware the village is away. She has been circulated on the village WhatsApp group and on the water keepers group. The landowner has searched and they Gamekeeper has used a thermal but so far nothing. There has been no sightings at all she has a collar and is Tagged. She has lived in the same house all her life so the owner hasn’t moved and they only lives very very close to the place she went missing. The tracks you were missing on has a very large “mound” by the side of it that is overgrown That is the bank that would’ve surrounded the old railway line (which is the sunken bit).
Lots of people have been out and I was there till 11pm last night And did find a cat on the mound and then the same cat again moving around so the silence was a benefit because we could isolate any animal moving but we did not hear anything else. Of course there is a possibility that somebody has picked her up and not handed her in. Otherwise she could be stuck or down a hole. Gamekeeper as above is very aware and is checking any areas he is aware of. I I know the landowners and have contact with them so please no one go traipsing about their land without permission.

Region is South West. Hope Cleo is found soon.
