So difficult to see markings and gender unclear but worth checking this dog found in Dublin

Selling on sphock, but due to how big the dog is could lie about age! https://en.shpock.com/i/WsZmJvJKD3eOEUBB/?lft=

Could this be Rocco on dog lost? http://www.doglost.co.uk/dog-blog.php?dogId=119892#.WbqBbMh97IU

Found 69779 dog described as a Great Dane loose in Bournemouth. Very thin and scavenging from bins, will not let people near. Someone has suggested it could be a Cane Corso. I am posting now simply because of that suggestion and the chain around its neck, like that on Rocco.Last edited: 2014-06-13 21:08:53 by Fergal - Area Volunteer - Cornwall

Mobile number does not appear to be live either - have sent text asking to contact me urgently but dont hold out much hope - not my area so wondering if anyone could contact the dog warden /police covering this area just to see if theft was registered and there could be a name at least

Just seen the comment left by Vincesapplemac, will try and contact them but post was left a while ago. x

Don't know if Rocco's been found yet, but we have a Cane Corso & as there's not many in the NW, a friend contacted me today to tell me about a male Cane Corso, he'd met in Sale Water Park at the Weekend called Rocky/, name rung a bell with me, and looking here Rocco, could easily sound like Rocky/Rocky (if Rocco had a name tag on when he was stolen, they may well have just changed his name slightly so he would answer to them). Hope this helps if it is him, friend seemed to think they were local and told them about our Cane Corso and where we can usually be seen walking her, so hoping we may bump into tjhem and find out more

Hi there someone has said they have seen a similar looking dog in Daisy Hill with a large built man walking the dog,just letting people know on here...
DogLostMajorjet (Jan) - Area Co-ordinator - Liverpool/Merseyside, North West
SashaLeigh thanks for posting on Rocco's page, did you get the info/advice email and has it been forwarded onto owner? There is lots of info advice on things to do in it. Postering and media coverage are the way to get Rocco back.

I did speak to someone on the landline and they said they would get owner to ring back, which they did left a message and have not been in contact since. We needed more info to update the details.

Thanks Jackalee for your advice greatly appreciated. :) x

SashaLeigh. I stand corrected, there is a new dedicated dog warden for the Oldham and Tameside area - AT LAST!!! He is available on 0161 342 8355. He works between the hours of 8am to 4pm, Mon to Fri. It is still the Animal Wardens after hours and on the weekend. Please ring him Monday and log Rocco's details with him :)
SashaLeigh
Hi I will have a look on there now, I have never had a dog go missing before and I am quite annoyed at my friend for his carelessness. Thanks for everyones post I am really really hoping he hets back home i keep thinking the worst about bait dogs x
DogLostJackalee (Kathryn) - Area Co-ordinator - Greater Manchester
Has Rocco been reported as missing to the Animal Wardens? Can't see him on there. There is no dedicated dog warden in the Tameside area, just the Animal Wardens who handle all lost/found dogs.

You can input the details on http://www.animalwardens.co.uk/ or you can ring them on 0845 241 7253. Make sure you include a photo.Last edited: 2011-10-14 17:05:10 by Jackalee (Kathryn) - Area Co-ordinator - Greater Manchester

Thanks Jan. Didn't even think of Atherton as it is the other side of Wigan and the Ashton bit through me, doesn't take much you know lol x
DogLostMajorjet (Jan) - Area Co-ordinator - Liverpool/Merseyside, North West
Area maybe Atherton M46. x
DogLostMajorjet (Jan) - Area Co-ordinator - Liverpool/Merseyside, North West
Thanks Jackalee. :) It is a friend of the family who has registered the details on DL. We can confirm the details as soon as we are able to make contact with friend or family. I did wonder about the 01942 code. x
DogLostJackalee (Kathryn) - Area Co-ordinator - Greater Manchester
Really not sure the postcode and area are correct on this one. M4 is the Ancoats/Collyhurst area of Manchester, City Centre. There is an Ashton under Lyne (OL6)Tameside and an Ashton in Makerfield (WN4) Wigan.

As the second phone number is 01942, this is a Wigan code so thinking the area should be Ashton in Makerfield, Wigan WN4. I might be wrong but its about 25 miles between M4 and WN4 so could make a huge difference for emails and helpers.
