Thank you Dinky Doodle for telling me about the lab found in Northern Ireland. Having just had a vivid dream that Simon came home, I called despite it being a long shot! It wasn't Simon and the lady I spoke to was quite surprised to hear from me in Bristol. We had a nice chat.
Thanks also for this Dinkydoodle www.vetsgetscanning.co.uk- anyone who checks Simon's page- take a look and join the campaign!
Thanks for continuing to look and think about Simon.
All the best from us here and wags to your 4 legged friends

Hi Bear,
It is fantastic news that the public are still looking out for Simon and found a way of contacting you.
I check Simons page most days to see if there is any news and still look out for him around Bristol.
Thinking of you as always. xx | 29/12/2009 | ML |

Hello to all at Doglost and to all that check Simon's page. Just wanted to thank you all for your support, for remembering about him and for caring about him. We of course wished so hard he would be back for Christmas. We still miss him so much and would so like to know where he is.
We had a call from 2 people the other day who had seen a black lab in Parry's lane near the dairy. It raised our hopes enormously for 2 reasons- the people managed to get in touch after all this time- they googled it on the internet and got my number! and also people are still looking!
The dog is a big handsome boy - also nervous and barks at strangers- I took him home one day when he got out when I was passing, think he gets out a lot and he lives on the left of Parry's lane as you go down, near the diary.
All the best to you lovely people.

Bear, have you seen Sam 8858 reunited after nearly 3 years thanks to his chip! Never give up hope of finding Simon. Always looking out for him.x. | 08/12/2009 | dinkydoodle |

Bear, I know how difficult that must have been for you. Perhaps the only consolation is that people many miles away are still keeping Simon in their minds, as we all are here. Simon, still looking for you old man.x. | 22/11/2009 | dinkydoodle |

Had a call from Plymouth dog's home the other day and my heart missed a beat, but sadly they were only checking records and seeing if Simon should be kept on the database. All still heartbroken and missing him. Only a miracle can bring him back now!

Hi Magical Badger- have just had a look. Good idea to check - thanks, but none are Simon. We were thinking about him lots tonight especially, as he had such terror of fireworks and it is very strange not having him about quivering in fear now that the students are back and nights are dark and fireworks are going off all the time. So sad not to know where Simon or Blue are, or if they are being well cared for or just roaming. Often think of you

So sorry that these sightings have turned out not to be Simon and I know if must be really hard but please still don't give up hope. You still have loads of eyes looking for Simon as they go about their day and you have done the absolute maximum that anyone could do to try and find your dear old man. Always thinking of you Bear, your family and of course, Simon.x. | 24/10/2009 | dinkydoodle |

Oh Bear, this is sad news. I was so hopeful that this was Simon.
I know it must be hard the more time goes by but try not to give up hope - you never know, his chip may get read. Thinking of you. xxx | 24/10/2009 | ML |

Finally the mystery of the sighting in Canford lane last month has been explained... a lady rang today to tell us that her dog got out for 24 hours in the area and Blaise castle around 24th and 25th Sept. The dog was similar in age and size to Simon and has a grey muzzle.
The only way we would get Simon back now is if his chip got read. I really don't think he could still be running free in the Bristol area.

That is interesting about the chips! I agree it would be a good idea- like a credit card that was stolen.
Had a call from Shadow's breeder out of the blue today, a lovely lady who has now moved to Yorkshire. She is dotty about dogs and sends birthday cards to the pups she bred! and by chance bought a bundle of magazines in a boot sale and saw the article about Simon and saw my picture and Shadow's name and rang me straight away to sympathise. Shadow's mum Bonnie died recently so sympathy flowed both ways.

Microchips are made slightly differently now, they used to have a smooth outer casing which meant it was easy for them to migrate, normally under the front legs, they now have a coating a bit like velco grips which means they should stay in the right place.
It would be great if there were a way the scanners were able to pick up a chip that was registered as lost or stolen. | 17/10/2009 | Auntie Katie, Area Co-ordinator Cambridge |

Hi! Bear, as usual sterling work, well done at the Vets worring isnt it that dogs are not scanned as a matter of course but spreading the word will help.
Hope you have good news soon.xxx | 16/10/2009 | Reynard - Area Co-ordinator North Wilts |

nothing more. I took my other dogs for their annual booster at the vet last night. I insisted that they were scanned for microchips first. I suggest that any one who visits their vet gets their dog scanned every time. it took a long time to locate Shadow's chip- so much so that we didn't think he had one. This is worrying. The vet was very sympathetic to the idea of vets scanning all pets as a routine- good news Off for walkies now
