Katy was found to-day yipeeee! she was seen to cross the railway line and the Farmer caught her!

She is ok a bit too thin but owner says she knows where she is and is happy to be home.

dividon and I were there (at different times) we were both very near to where she must have been!

I am going round with Dividon on Wed to see her and give her a cuddle. xxxLast edited: 2011-02-14 20:34:15 by Reynard

So pleased you are all still looking for this little girl. I hope all these lovely dogs are found safe and well but have to say I cant stop thinking about little Katy. I second what Nina has already said :o)
DogLostNina
Well done Reynard and Divadon in keeping up the good work in trying to find Katy.. Sending good wishes and thanks from miles away for a good result.
Divadon
Me and Dave have had a wander around the cycle track this evening, have put some more food down. Horrible, wet and very muddy around there, so hope Katy has found somewhere dry and safe.
DogLostReynard
Its raining here like mad roads are flooded, hope Katy is ok as we have had no news of her?

Will go have a look tomorrow evening.
DogLostReynard
Sadly no :( been going all week putting food down, spoke to loads of people that walk the route daily and have a friend going to-day and Sunday Dividon is going, thanks guys It is very sad, we just hope we get another sighting or she finds her way home.Last edited: 2011-02-13 19:20:50 by Reynard
Lisa123
Take it there has been no news of this little girl?
DogLostReynard
Have been again to-day a bit earlier this time spoke to the builders that are doing a huge construction on this Cycle path a big bridge over the railway line (I guess because there is going to eventually be loads of houses on gorgeous countryside, Swindon Council eh! ) Any how got told off for parking me car at the beginning of the track (neatly to one side and a lovely note saying what I was doing and how to contact me) because a huge lorry with aggregate had a job to get by! Anyhow the man went on to say that some of the builder chappies saw Katy two weeks ago at the back of John Lewis which is the same track but quite a long way off from where she has been sighted recently and they tried to catch her ,,,I thanked him!

So she could be making her way up the track towards Blaygrow where there is an underpass which will come out into Freshbrook Park not far from home.....I hope she makes it soon !

Never mind Lisa123 keep with the positive thinking xxxLast edited: 2011-02-09 20:47:50 by Reynard
Lisa123
I have loads and loads of positive thinking for this little girl...... just wish I could get from Nottingham to come and help you search :o(
DogLostReynard
Dividon went there today put food down and sat for a while ,,,,,,,,,,,,nothing :(

We need some positive thinking here to get Katy to show her self,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
I will try to get there tomorrow ,,,traffic too bad to get there this PM, flippin road works.

Will try to get an organised search going if we can get enough lovely peeps?

Was hoping there might have been at least a sighting of her by someone. The stress can’t be doing this couple any good bless them. Come on Katy we need you home.
DogLostReynard
Food & scented this afteernoon.

Sadly saw and heard nothing this morning, nothing out of the ordinary and my dog did not pick up on anything really :(
Spoke to loads of peeps and put up more Posters so hope someone will come forward.

By the way Reynard I emailed some local churches as well, who knows we may have someone on high looking down on us to give us some much needed help!
DogLostReynard
Brilliant job Nina thanks sooooooooo much for your help xxx

Thanks for the advice Lisa123 I will bear that in mind , had a good look round this morning & put Pee down & one of her soft toys so hopefully she will pick up on the scent.

Thanks Divadon I will pop over again tonight.

Anyone got a Cat Trap they could lend me , no worries I will check it every day and hide it well, I have big traps only & hubby is setting about making one but in the meantime if anyone can help please?Last edited: 2011-02-05 14:55:43 by Reynard
Divadon
Good to see you last night Reynard. We are going to pop down to the area again later on this morning. We put a few posters up around there last night and will take some more today, will take some more food too.
DogLostNina
Reynard have emailed schools as requested. Hope they get involved. Good luck.
DogLostReynard
Nina perhaps you could email the schools in the area Ta!

I am back out there this morning.
Lisa123
Oh bless her. I have Yorkies always have had them and they usually tend to hide if frightened. Hopefully this will keep her away from noise etc. My mum lost her Yorkie a few years back and she was found 4 days later hiding behind a rock .
DogLostNina
Well done Reynard so pleased that the owners are getting some help. Have schools been contacted children are so usefull in these situations.
DogLostReynard
Yep not long got back met up with Divadon which is a lovely duo thanks guys.

Left food & Posters (& One at John Lewis!)and will leave scent tomorrow as now got pee from Katy's owners bless them, they had gone to bed but were very glad to see me and my sniffer dog.

Our Fab Dog Warden has also been walking the route looking for Katy this afternoon and has asked Joggers and the like .

Come on Katy show your self sweetie

Yes Lisa she was sighted on her own quite a distance for a little dog she would have had to cross a busy road or go on the under path, unfortunatly there is also a main line Train that runs paralell with this cycle track but she could go towards the canal or over the fields to Wroughton in between is the M4 motorway !!!
Poor little mite its windy and raining tonight! :(Last edited: 2011-02-05 14:57:15 by Reynard

Was she on her own do we know? Come on Katy we need you home!

Sighting last night at Blagrove, John Lewis . Bumping.
doglover1
Shared Katy's missing details on Facebook.I hope this lovely girl is home soon.
Lisa123
There is a contact number etc on the BBC Wiltshire website. I think if someone who knows the couple or a relative could contact them it would help...
DogLostReynard
Thanks everyone! Toothill area would be a good place to start with Postering, Postering is very important as it makes it difficult if some one has her i.e Too Hot To Handle & if anyone has seen her they know where to call, thats my mobile and email BTW land line is owner.

If anyone has contacts with the media could they help!

This is a terrible thing to have happened to an elderly couple and Katy was from a Rescue, its all so sad :(
DogLostNina
I am miles away but I brought up Toothill Swindon on google and have emailed as many as I can find. Hopefully local people will get involved ie schools, churches especially if they get to know the story.
Lisa123
So sorry Katy is not home yet. Would it be worth someone local or who knows the couple to contact BBC Wiltshire. Just thinking with Katy's story of her past and the elderly couples health etc they might just take an interest. I know the East Midlands news do this kind of thing sometimes.
Divadon
Saw a poster in our vets yesterday for Katy. What areas do you need postering as can help out with postering this weekend? Is it worth contacting the evening advertiser again, to see if they will run another piece? Hope she is found soon.
DogLostReynard
Called for an update and no news at all!

Elderly and poor sighted Owner still thinks she has been taken in localy but unfortunatly she has received very little practicable help from anyone (other than myself) :(
