An appeal went out on radio Northamptonshire yesterday by Mic Martin of dog borstal asking for info on Wilby.Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

Have put posters on Souldern notice board, in Stoke Woods and on bridlepath between Croughton andB4100. Has anyone put a poster in Buckingham pet shop? Have you searched the hedgerows around where he was last seen and his usual walking places. My spaniel cross was lost while hunting. He was found 27 hours later hung up on barbed wire. A clump of burrs had tangled his coat and caught on the wire.Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

Thank you all, again, for all your kind thoughts and your unending assistance.  Wilby made the front page of the Brackley Post newspaper which reaches almost 12,000 homes.  We are told he will also feature in the Banbury Cake, but have yet to see if this comes to fruition.  However, despite the kind help, the notices and general chat about Wilby, there has been no sign.  Fingers crossed for some word soon.Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

I haven't been on this wonderful site for some time as my son was involved in a serious car crash, so I've only just become aware of Wilby. I have several relations living in Brackley, so will make them aware of him. I think my sister-in-law takes her puppy to a local dog training club, so will ask her to spread the word. Hope he's home soon xLast edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

Any news on Wilby. Did he go in the Brackley local paper???. I will have a word with a lady I know that works at Croughton base and see if she can put some posters up. Although the area has secure fencing it only takes a little hole to get through. Will let you know what she says. Annabelle    Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

Thanks Marcus and dont forget we will help in anyway we can to get little Wilby home. If you could print off some A5 posters we can get them on all the poo bins in the cherwell area and we can inform some of the workers for cherwell to keep a look out. I spoke to Wilby's groomer and she has put him on her website site and has posters up in her office. Everybody is behind you so stay strong. Annabelle  Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

I so hope that you get your gorgeous boy Wilby home soon, I have only lost my Cocker boy Jarvis once for only 20 minutes and I was in a terrible panic so I hate to think how you must be feeling. Good luck in your search this weekend.Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

Owners have enllisted the help of Mic Martin from dog borstal and he is going around local villages with a 3 metre high poster and a megaphone-of course the local media have picked up on this so we are getting media coverage too. I have been with the owner today scenting area where Wilby went missing from and where the sighting was. Ardley Kennnels have rallied local helpers together and are doing out lying villages as we speak. Thanks Annabell your a star! Just waiting for some more sightings to come in. Thanks majorjet for e mailing local helpers.Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

Marcus I am so sorry to see you have lost Wilby and thankyou for registering him with us. It is vital that you poster poster poster the area he is missing in to raise as much public awareness as possible. Please email us a photo at admin@doglost.co.uk  or upload one yourself directly to Wilby's page. Once a photo is on site you can print them from the site yourself but you need to be logged  in first. Just click on 'dogs'poster' above Wilbys description. Dont forget to inform local dog wardens and vets that Wilby is missing and check all local stray kennels as although Wilby is microchipped some dogs do slip through the system and sometimes microchips are not picked up. Good luck and I hope you have some news of Wilby very soon ~ Pam   Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18

Marcus, could you possibly email a photo of Wilby to admin@doglost.co.uk? It will be added to his poster and you will be able to download it by clicking on Poster 1 above. Print off and distrubute everywhere in the area where he went missing, and more. Inform the dog warden ASAP and put an ad in the local paper. Get his profile out there and hopefully he will be found soon. Best wishes.Last edited: 2010-05-11 02:17:18
