Have removed poster at the Coach Road bridleway near Betworth Golf Club entrance. Are there any more that I can help with on the Dorking side as I have some time tomorrow?

Only just picked up on this one and glad to see he is back quickly. Yes Patsy the first thing that ran through my mind when I saw it. Isla I have sent you a pm. Thank goodness he wasn't out as long as Maddie and is safely home now. Somewhat surprised this fellow isn't microchipped, but perhaps its being done now as a welcome home pressie. Probably another case of it'll never happen to me doglady - until it does! Stay safe Doona. Sue x

Good news, glad to hear he is safe and back home. Big sigh of relief. If its any consolation, ours never lets us out of her sight now! Hope yours will be the same.

Welcome home DOONA just waiting for mum to come home I think, well done to all that gave advise about scenting, and I will echo you MILLY'S MUM tag an a chip will be good now, even though at lot on here do not think a tag and chip is always a good idea, any form of ID is good tattoo chip and as it is the law tag, dose help to get dogs home in more case then none.

Just off to work but wanted to say: wonderful, wonderful news. Well done to the owners for listening to such good DL advice regarding scenting. So very pleased that your lovely Doona is back home safe and sound and currently catching up on his beauty sleep. Finally just one very important request, can this very precious boy have a chip AND an ID tag on his collar as a welcome home present?!

I've managed to get 10 posters up in the immediate area. There has been further sightings of him today so it sounds like he's staying close - fingers crossed he decides to come home very soon.

Our Ridgie was missing last year and regular sighting were being reported. Lots of people advised us that she would stay in that area so its important to get some familiar scents and food down in the area that Doona has been sighted, as well as loads and loads of posters. Ours did stay within a reasonable area and it did eventually pay off. I hope yours will too and that Doona will be home soon. Wish we were closer to help. Good luck. T

I have just printed some posters out so will go and put them up in the immediate area this afternoon and carry on looking. Have spoken to the owner and apparently the dog used in the poster does look like Nduna but with a slightly less curled tail.

The kennels have said there has been 4 sightings of Doona around the Reigate Heath and Betchworth/Buckland area. So please keep a look out for him around these areas especially. I have been out for a couple of hours this morning and will go out again this afternoon. Local vets and police have been contacted.

Will get postering later today/tomorrow. I wonder if this is the same boarding kennels that Maddie, labrador, went missing from last year (and later happilly safely reunited with her woners).
