This probably isn't your dog but please check anyway. Markings look similar but I don't have a full view of this found one so can only go by similarities on front and towards back. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=473587209412014&set=gm.232200196966079&type=1&theater

So sorry that Sammy is still missing, Helen. I guess that you will already know that the Betley Game Fair will be on in early July - http://www.thegundogandgamefair.com/

Perhaps it may be worth printing out some more flyers or handouts to give to people who attend the fair - may jog someones memory or at least will raise the profile again. I guess they will get visitors from across the area and further afield in neighbouring counties?

COPIED FROM A POST ON 32206
Apologies for posting here as unlikely to be connected to this case but may be relevant to other lost spaniels. Some travellers were evicted from a site just outside Brighton a few months ago & were camped out in parks all over the city. They were selling puppies mainly jack russells but someone has told me they were also selling pedigree spaniels.x

I have just spoken with Helen who is out searching at present, and she has asked me to say yes please, that would be very helpful.

Hi Helen,

I am a newbie on here and just seen this. Sorry to hear about Sammy.
I am near the Stafford area and sometimes go up to Coombes Valley, Consall and the surrounding area to volunteer with the RSPB. They are always in and around the area and particularly this time of year to do practical work. If you haven't already, I can Email the RSPB at Coombes and ask volunteers to keep their eyes open and let others know. I will also put some posters around my village and in the pet shop, local shop and restaurant.
Helen Bailey
Hi search party went ok thanx but still no further forward with finding Sammy altho Phebe says Whispa picked up his scent and he took us the same way as the sighting was but the woods is so vast he could be in there for months without being seen. Put trap out last night but still no joy trying again tonight Thanx for all your concerns and posts xx will keep u posted xxx
Dainty Daisy
How did the search go today, any word on Sammy?

Helen you're working so hard getting all this media coverage for Sammy.

ALSO, JUST A REMINDER OF THE SEARCH TAKING PLACE TOMORROW AFTERNOON, DETAILS BELOW. PLEASE JOIN IN IF YOU CAN AND HELP FIND SAMMY xx
Helen Bailey
it is frightening the fact that the License is with one authority and it only covers welfare not ownership and the contract with other authorities who only receive tickets (paperwork) for the dogs their wardens take in so if Jo public takes a dog in there is no audit trail for that dog its sole responsibility lies with the dogs home mad or what :(
Helen Bailey
Here goes update on Sammy been to dogs home and spoke to manager she checked book which had an entry of dog on the 30th collected by owner, having thought about it i wasn't happy so returned with hubby this time the girls stated that the one listed on the 30th was not admitted it was just a notice of dog lost at this point i clocked the number and later confirmed this to be true. Having said that after I explained that I had a witness the girls did confirm that a springer was taken in and handed to the elder guy who gave it to the younger lad, so i waited for them to return and was told that an off duty RSPCA guy from Telford called Alan had dropped it off one saturday morning they had scanned it and the owner from Newport collected it the next morning (Sunday) I contacted Shropshire RSPCA and they haven't got an Alan ??? he told me there was no paperwork done because it was reunited with its owner straight away who brought evidence of chip number but funnily enough the guy hadn't kept a record of that either, someone is not being honest me feels :(

Have spoken to Helen with regard to Stoke City Dogs Home and she is going to visit them.

Well done Helen on getting all this media coverage for Sammy.

Fingers crossed for some good news. Liz xx

bumped due to press coverage.
Helen Bailey
In tonights local paper also in verts magazine and shooting times and Cheadle times and echo. Had a telephone call from a lady after seeing Sammy in paper she says she saw one looked just like him in City dogs home two weeks ago she also told me City dogs home had her dog despite her ringing everyday she caught him just before they sold him on he was also chipped. This is the second person who has told me similar story about same place. Does anyone know if i have any rights at all regarding knowing who they sold him to? i gave his details to this place nearly 4 weeks ago PLEASE ADVISE???
BBKM
Has there been any more sightings, try keeping a map and marking the spot where he was lost an where he has been seen. If Sammy is still wandering he will be in survival mode, are there any pubs, b/breakfasts in area where he might go to for scraps of food or the smell of food, also any barns, unused sheds etc what he could be using as a den xx

Sorry to say still no Sammy God I hope it wasn't a hoax its bad enough him missing but to get hopes up then nothing, it has given me some hope tho that he is still in the area its just so disheartening when there was no footprints or other signs just the word of a group of teenages :( They did seem genuine tho so here is hoping to the next few dusk and dawn searches. Thanks everyone for all your support. I am going to contact the chip people again tomoz scootjockey cos when i last spoke they were not too helpful but i will try again as the lady might have just been having an off day we all have them eh :) Thanks again to all you lovely people xx

I Hope its good new when you get home Helen. Hope you've got Sammy with you, Thinking of you XXX

Keeping everything crossed for Sammy to be found safe tonight, come on gorgeous boy smell the sausages, its your mummy cooking them for you x

Sighting of Sammy around the visitor's centre so sounds like he's scouting around for food. Helen on her way up there now with a BBQ. Good luck Helen!

Sammy Bailey is on twitter + being circulated.

Hi Helen with regards to contacting vets etc.You could ask your microchip company if they provide a service to help you find your missing dog. Such as "Locate" We purchased after Tay was stolen App £22.they then inform all vets, kennels and other doggie related organisations etc within a 20 mile radius of where they went missing.Its perhaps more effective if puchased before your dog is actually lost, as youd have a wallet containing everything required by them in the event your dog should be lost.Best wishes Tays mum Gail, xxx
magda
I tweeted and shared on facebook. There is no way one can contact vets but by calling every one and sending pictures/posters.I know it is stupid that they don't have one site and most if them don't even have e-mail addresses... but you can write to the dogwardens on info@animalwardens.co.uk with a picture. Check their web site regulalry. Good luck! I know how you feel as my Biscuit has been gone since November last year. Hugs xx

Now on DogLost Central facebook

Sorry there's been no further news Helen, maybe it was a false alarm. It's such a shame that you can't trace the campers.

Sammy's advert is due to be published on Wednesday so that will get some media coverage all over.

I will try to phone you tonight.
Helen Bailey
Hi All I think the sighting was a false alarm as there has been absolutely nothing. I believ people were camoping near by on the night he went missing from Nottingham but cant trace them Does anyone know of a service that will inform ALL VETS everywhere because its proving impossible to call each individually. I contacted Cornwall no joy but thanks Pam. Kingsley is near our home but he has not been sighted since and its odd that a child sat in the back seat saw him whilst driver and passenger didnt. Have been back and left items in wood, also emptied contents of vaccum cleaner and even spent the night weeinplease God let him come home. Thanks to all for commenst and tweets etc PLEASE KEEP retweeting i cant give up on him and its driving me to despair. Thanks all
BBKM
Hope Sammy is found soon x C'mon gorgeous boy be sighted again xx

Is Kingsley part of the Nature Reserver Helen?

And would that mean he was travelling in the direction of your house?Last edited: 2011-08-04 12:28:59 by B30

Thank you Sammy still not home followed all the suggested ideas we have lots of fields and woods around so lots of smells to distract him, its really disheartening to keep going back to the spot where we always park and still no sign.
Barney 'n' Ozzie's mum
Keep going back to where you last saw him. Dogs often return to the spot where they last saw their owner. Leave an item of clothing with your scent on there and it will hopefully keep him in the area. Good luck xx

Thank you for registering Sammy. A helper from Central will be in touch with you soon but in the meantime please follow the advice below.
Admin
Sorry to see that SAMMY BAILEY is missing.
  • If your dog is microchipped please let the microchip company know that your dog is missing and check that all details are up to date.
  • Owners targeted by a malicious hoaxer demanding money for the return of their dog should phone the police on 101 immediately and contact admin@doglost.co.uk
  • A photograph of your dog is essential for the website. If you have not already uploaded one, please do so by clicking on Update details. Alternatively you can email it to admin@doglost.co.uk quoting the dog's DogLost ID number: (31260)
  • Obtain a missing poster by clicking on View poster above. Posters are very important so start postering now!
  • You will need to be logged in to upload photos, edit your dog's details, or add comments. You can add comments by clicking on Click here to add a comment.
  • Contact dog wardens, vets and local rescue centres, and in Scotland, the Police. Give a detailed description with any distinguishing marks/scars or send them a copy of your DogLost poster. You can find vets in your area here.
  • If your dog has been stolen inform the police immediately and obtain a crime reference number (CRN). Send an email to stolen@doglost.co.uk.
  • If your dog is picked up and taken to rescue kennels, it can be legally re-homed after seven days. Visit rescue centres in person and do not rely on checking by phone alone. Other people may not recognise your dog by your description, so give them a DogLost poster.
  • Keep us updated by keeping your dog's page up to date and check for posts from helpers who may have suggestions and possible matches or sightings
