Hoping and praying one day lovely Basket will be home where she belongs. Beautiful girl. X

Been seen but not caught.

We don't believe this is Basket, Charlie and myself have compared photos of the stray dog and Basket and the stray hasn't any white on it's chest (just a small patch near it's front legs) Basket has got quite a bit of white on her chest.
However I will keep an eye on the facebook posting (it wasn't clear which dog had been reunited when the comment was first posted but further comments have now been added)

2020-07-09 09:02 Louise625

Dog is NOT reunited with owner - it was the other dog they were referring to, the fawn one.

2020-07-08 21:06 Carolynl

Oh bless you...always on the lookout for a dog that looks like Basket, sadly the recent one wasn't to be but will still be keeping an eye definitely out...for that one day 🤞 x

Update on the original post for the dog in Somerset saying he is back with his owner.
The search continues for Basket, I have re-shared her details over the local facebook groups again x

2020-07-08 13:14 DogLostHelen - Regional Co-ordinator - Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridge

I've spoken to Charlie and will follow the facebook post regarding this stray dog and will update Charlie if there is any further news x

2020-07-08 12:41 Charlie

If any Somerset based Doglost people get a further sighting please do message me.

2020-07-08 12:12 Charlie

This looks exactly like her. Can you please please tell me if I can get this dog checked as basket is chipped

2020-07-08 11:37 Louise625

Please check and rule this dog out - seen Somerset - https://www.facebook.com/groups/571434760132624/

There are a couple of Lurchers that I have registered on Dog Lost for the pound, I have E-mailed the links to Basket's owner for her to check out ( found dog 147299 and found dog 147296)

2019-06-24 19:29 Sylvia

Please check this found lurcher. This one has white toes on back feet and white toes on left front foot. Picture of very very thin dog so be warned about that upsetting picture. But could she be Basket?
I can't see in your photo, the details of her feet.
Found 17 June Brickhill Rd South East.

Charlie, so sorry it wasn't Basket, I really thought it could be ~ We'll keep looking x

2019-04-26 07:04 Charlie

Sharon, thank you-startling resemblance. But Basket is less hairy. Still hunting for her locally, it is so rural here and so much prey about. Thank you so much xx it’s nearly been 4 weeks :(

2019-04-26 05:47 DogLostSharon - Social Media Volunteer

Just in case please check this found female Lurcher https://doglost.co.uk/dog-blog.php?dogId=143052

So pleased there has been a sighting of Basket, fingers crossed she will be seen again x

2019-04-17 17:16 Charlie

A SIGHTING!! Less than an hour ago in Newton (half a mile from last sighting on April 3rd!) Grey dog on the hunt in field. Please keep eyes peeled! Will attempt to send up a drone. Will keep you posted. Charlie :)

2019-04-17 09:56 Charlie

Hi to all, no news or recent sightings. Very concerned we might never see Basket again. Is it too late for a tracker dog? Waiting to hear back from Loki’s owner and a thermal drone company. Such a vast rural area though. Wouldn’t she come home if she was so near? Heartbreaking. Please keep eyes and ears open for this dear dog. Charlie :(

The found dog ID 142347 is now reunited.

2019-04-08 13:54 AnneG

Cheers Emily, i just responded to their post on the other dog :-)

2019-04-08 13:23 Emily

Hi Anne,thank you! I've sent the link to the owners so they can check the pictures.

2019-04-08 12:47 AnneG

Hi to Baskets owners. This found dog looks identical from what I can see, but says male. Might be an error / typo? Here's the link

Try and get children on board in looking/searching. Poster in and on cars, poo bins, bus stops taxi firms Put posters in red post boxes for postmen to take back to the sorting office. Leave a human scent trail by leaving a trail of pee.

2019-04-06 17:57 Charlie

Thank you so much to Emily and anyone who looked (and is still looking ) for dear Basket. The Wednesday sighting has completely thrown me: I have now learnt about how lost dogs revert extremely quickly to a feral state and how their behaviour can rapidly change. So: she could be alive and hunting quite close by. PLEASE KEEP LOOKING FOR HER as it is only through sightings that I could try to get her back. Everyone has been amazing. I have searched for 6 hours last Sunday and over 3 today. I took her son to leave a trail. Any other thoughts, please say, and please spread the word. Thank you so much x Charlie and family

2019-04-06 14:59 DogLostHelen - Regional Co-ordinator - Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridge

Charlie, it doesn't take dogs long to go feral as their natural instincts take over so they will be survival mode, probably keeping hidden up during day light hours and moving around during the night when it is quieter, dawn and dusk is a good time to search for dogs that have been missing a little while.

2019-04-06 12:17 Charlie

Does anyone know or have any experience of how long it takes for a pet dog-much loved etc-to go feral?

2019-04-06 11:35 Emily

That's all I know I'm afraid, I have tagged Dot on the Doglost Norfolk page so you can see the comments made. Sounds promising though. I think this warrants a proper search of the fields by the bridge.

2019-04-06 11:27 Charlie

I’d love to know more about this sighting Emily? If she was only by the bridge she would be able to find her way home? Is it possible we could get more information about this? Charlie :)

2019-04-06 11:18 Emily

Just received a report of a sighting on Wednesday 3rd April near the bridge in Newton, Castle Acre.

So sorry there has been no news yet Charlie, please make sure you have plenty of posters up in the area as these will reach out to people who are not on Social Media, they really do work.
Have you thought about getting her mentioned on the local Radio Station and also approach the local paper and ask if they would feature her in their newspaper, again this this would reach out to a wide area and hopefully get the sightings called in x

2019-04-02 12:34 Charlie

Hi to all, no news on Basket I am sorry to say. I fear she may be lying out of view somewhere. She could of course be still on the run but no more sightings. A shred of hope left, thank god we have her son home-her gift to us x Charlie

2019-04-02 12:31 JEAN

Any news on Basket please?

2019-03-31 21:55 DogLostHelen - Regional Co-ordinator - Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridge

Fingers crossed that this dog was Basket and she will be home very soon.
Bumping her page up because of this possible sighting x

2019-03-31 21:48 Charlie

Hello to all. Basket remains loose. There has been A POSSIBLE SIGHTING OF HER in Great Dunham yesterday (Sat) however the witness said 'a collie' and so this could be a mistake. However, anyone in this area, Little and Great Dunham, Beeston, the Lexhams PLEASE do what you can. Thank you all for your support. We have some hope left. Charlie x

2019-03-30 22:18 JEAN

Basket is still missing. Igor has been found safe.
