Sadly still missing & still very missed xx

T/c to tel number today and spoke to this lovely owner. Asked her if she was still actively looking for her dog. She explained whilst she would welcome her dog back if it was found it has been 4 years now and she did all she could to find her. However if an unchipped, un spayed similar looking black lab was found please could you email her at happybuddhaland@yahoo.co.uk. This dog does not have a face book account

Phone call today about a black lab, looking a little thin around Argal reservoir,Mabe, Penryn. Not wearing a collar. It could be a local dog but have contacted owner who will poster when she returnes from London on Tuesday.

This sighting could also be the black lab lost in Falmouth but that one has a red collar (which could have come off) This is only a mile from where she has been seen recently. I will bump both dogs.

2013-06-19 20:42 Unknown

Hope Rene will be found soon. Paws, and fingers xd.

Hi everyone, we can confirm that the dog reported in Mullion is I'm afraid not Rene. "He" was spotted with a red collar on this afternoon & when approached his owners were discovered nearby walking him off the lead. See Dog ID 52103 for full posting.

Sorry but the search for Rene continues & hope she is found safe soon. Rgds Tiana

2013-05-22 09:28 kia

Tiana, sorry for delay in coming back but my computers been down. Unfortunately we can't get across today but will keep checking to see if there's been a sighting after bin collections. We're away visiting family from tomorrow till next Tuesday and will gladly help with a search after that if she's not been found. Fingers crossed she will make an appearance today.

2013-05-20 21:41 DogLostMax - Area Co-ordinator - Cornwall & Area Volunteer - Durham & Ireland

Tiana, sadly it is too far for me to go back this week. I actually had business in Mullion today & had another good look around the area, but not a sighting.
Perhaps if Kia is nearer she could assist. Kia, for your info a dog Poss Rene) has been seen in Redannack & The Commons, which is the road out towards Poldhu on the edge of Mullion.

2013-05-20 15:11 Tiana

Kia/Max - as Wednesday is their weekly rubbish collection day, have notified the HQ of the "bin men" to keep an eye out for us this week. Are you free to do search on Wednesday? We have requested loan of dog trap should we locate suitable place to position it... Max maybe Delphine could help? Thanks

2013-05-17 09:15 DogLostMax - Area Co-ordinator - Cornwall & Area Volunteer - Durham & Ireland

Sorry there were no sightings last night. I got there and walked the area, which is a mix of country lanes & housing. I spoke to some people nearby who hadn't seen any stray dog, & some others who are aware of the missing posters in the area for Rene. It seems word is spreading, so whichever dog it is, hopefully soon it will be seen & caught.
I spent a few hours in the area, I had a good walk around & then sat in my car for a couple of hours around Reddanack & The Common (which is a road, not a common!) I put out a dish of smelly Sardines, which only attracted curious looks from neighbourhood cats~ they clearly are all well fed! Delphine who lives on Redannack will try to get a photo if it comes back & is willing to set up a feeding station or trap if one can get to her.
Sorry to disappoint you all.I am upset that nothing came of this.
There are lots of people rooting for her.

2013-05-16 20:14 B30

KIA thanks for your offer of help. Please call the owner on the number above to check where to look

2013-05-16 19:05 kia

We might be able to help with a search as we don't live far away. Would this be of any help and if so could we have some guidance on this as to where might be the best place to look etc? Fingers crossed she'll be found soon.

2013-05-15 23:29 Carol

Good lock max ... Just wish we were there with you , xx

2013-05-15 19:48 Unknown

Really hope Rene is found SOON. Good luck Max. Paws, and fingers xd. Keep us posted.

2013-05-15 17:09 DogLostMax - Area Co-ordinator - Cornwall & Area Volunteer - Durham & Ireland

ok, not going to write this off, i will go tomorrow evening & see if anything turns up, will take some food. fingers crossed.

2013-05-15 15:52 angi

don't write it off completely yet as labradors kept outside have a totally different coat to those used to being indoors. It is thick and woolly and they grow a sort of mane.I hope these poor dogs can be caught soon x

2013-05-15 10:57 ESSJ - Area Co-ordinator Rutland

Hi Max, Cindy, Carol etc. Just had a phonecall in to say that a black labrador like looking dog has been sighted again this morning scavenging the bins. The lady was driving past in her car and saw the dog in Redannack (sp) North - when she turned and went back it had gone. She lives on The Commons- her bins are recently very often ripped apart and she has said that she is willing to help set up feeding station and possibly a trap if we can get one there. Something is visiting her garden regularly.She believes that he/she was wearing a red collar as she saw a flash of red.Have just spoken to René's owner and she said it is still possible that it may be René though her coat was short at the time she went missing. Max- if you are about could you give me a ring or text please and i will phone you back.Jules- have tried to get hold of you- will try again shortly x Bumping both pages just in case x

2013-05-15 10:32 DogLostMax - Area Co-ordinator - Cornwall & Area Volunteer - Durham & Ireland

I have spoken to the owners this morning, & yesterday she spoke to the man who spotted the other black dog in Mullion. She really thinks that this is not her dog, as the chap said it had longer fur (hers has very short hair). It has not been seen since, although they will keep an eye out for it today, as it is 'bin' day.

2013-05-14 17:41 ClaireC

Everything crossed xx

2013-05-14 02:01 Carol

Max take some food xxx

2013-05-13 22:06 DogLostMax - Area Co-ordinator - Cornwall & Area Volunteer - Durham & Ireland

If the owners want to do a watch/search one night/evening, I am willing to go over to Mullion & have a doggy friend who has said she will come with me.She may come out in the night when it is quieter.

2013-05-13 19:59 cindy

Has there been any more sightings since the 8th May?

2013-05-13 17:17 Carol

The distance between TR12 and TR16 is 13 miles so this could be Rene xx

2013-05-13 17:14 Carol

Hi all is anyone near to mullion to feed this dog xxx

2013-05-13 09:03 cindy

If it is a strong possibility that the very thin dog running around area TR12 could be Rene, and the area that Rene comes from 'TR16' is nearby is there any chance the owners of Rene could set up feeding stations for this dog. It would be a great shame if something happened to this dog and it was indeed Rene. xx

2013-05-11 17:51 Carol

Bumped xxx

2013-05-09 21:06 DogLostMax - Area Co-ordinator - Cornwall & Area Volunteer - Durham & Ireland

I do hope this is Rene & she is home soon.

2013-05-09 20:57 Carol

Bumped xx

2013-05-09 10:46 Carol

Hi all the southwest coordinator just rang me to say the dog warden has now been alerted so lets now hope this little one is found today and that its Rene xxx

2013-05-08 16:31 angi

a very thin black labrador has been seen scavaging from bins around the common,Mullion 52103. Could this be Rene?

2013-03-19 19:05 DogLostMax - Area Co-ordinator - Cornwall & Area Volunteer - Durham & Ireland

Am still driving around with the poster in my car, hopefully there will be some good news soon.

2013-02-23 19:28 DogLostMax - Area Co-ordinator - Cornwall & Area Volunteer - Durham & Ireland

2013-02-21 12:22 debsbristol

Oh No ... I think I saw this dog last Tuesday 12th February about midday . It was running around the village of Goonhaven by the New Inn pub on the A3075. It had a red collar on and people were trying to catch it . Itran across the mini roundabout in the direction of Perranporth B3285

Just a thought she may have come across or even found your little girl

2012-12-24 08:32 DogLostMoogie - Area Volunteer, Cornwall

Ok I'll will advice owner to put up more posters if possible. The sighting was on 17th December near the coppice pub, Lanner. No thing since then and haven't eliminated this dog. Yes neighbours dogs are still missing but spotted in the beacon area a couple of days ago. Although I'm on Facebook with updating posts, don't worry I also make sure here is updated so don't worry... You're not missing information.

I've had and email off owner that there is now a £100 reward for her safe return could admin please update posters and info ASAP.

2012-12-23 23:24 Tiana

Not enough posters realistically. What was the illogan link n when? I'm not on Facebook if shown there. Need this site updated. Are neighbours dogs still missing? Again any links? Thanks

2012-12-23 22:02 DogLostMoogie - Area Volunteer, Cornwall

All mines are clear. No sightings since Illogan...not sure if it was here. Were there many posters Tiana? I know owner has been very proactive.

2012-12-23 21:02 Tiana

Has there been any news or sightings for Rene? Drove nearby area today wasn't sure if she was still missing or not.
Thanks

2012-12-20 20:10 Unknown

Any news at all of the mine searches?

2012-12-19 19:02 DogLostMoogie - Area Volunteer, Cornwall

Thanks Tiana, the expert has contacted owner is there are two open mines which are going to be checked out tomorrow I think. She told me some disturbing news that her neighbours 2 dogs have gone missing. The bitch has got two pups that she wouldn't have left. I need to find out more info on this and update as soon as I know.
Owner is postering and leafleting the area well.

2012-12-19 18:32 Tiana

DogLost Volunteer Zim has I believe... or Admin mentioned ZZ before. Maybe drop Admin a note through the Contact Us link, top left of this page

2012-12-19 10:52 DogLostMoogie - Area Volunteer, Cornwall

Owner has been in touch with traveler liaison officer and has stated that she isn't on the local site. Still trying to get info on mines being searched. Anyone have any contact details for someone to check out local mines?

2012-12-18 23:36 DogLostMax - Area Co-ordinator - Cornwall & Area Volunteer - Durham & Ireland

Have sent e-mails to Radio Cornwall/pirate/heart to contact doglost in case of any info

2012-12-18 22:54 DogLostMax - Area Co-ordinator - Cornwall & Area Volunteer - Durham & Ireland

Will do, I have seen other post as well.

2012-12-18 20:05 Tiana

Hi Max, not sure but wouldn't hurt if you could contact them. We also have another dog Brooke nearby at Chacewater that went missing last night. Could you do both please? Thank you. Need to get as many posters up in vicinity as possible, so others can help with sightings...we can then plot where Rene may be. I'm wondering if she's back tracking to Gwennip Pit? Her favoured walk area with owners. Thanks.

2012-12-18 18:54 DogLostMax - Area Co-ordinator - Cornwall & Area Volunteer - Durham & Ireland

Has anyone contacted local radi stations? Cornwall/pirate/heart. I can do this if required

2012-12-18 14:21 DogLostMoogie - Area Volunteer, Cornwall

Yes lurcher type was brindle and both been reunited as far as I can tell. Owner is aware as she was told dog warden had black lab but not sure of sex

2012-12-18 13:33 DogLostZim3

Hi, Just had one of my clients in who lives in St Day, she told me she saw the black lab and the lurcher twice,once on Saturday and again on Sunday. I have just seen they have been eliminated but just in case, was the lurcher type a brindle colour. She thought the Lab was a bitch, said they were friendly. I'll pass on any info to her.

2012-12-17 21:16 DogLostMoogie - Area Volunteer, Cornwall

Thanks Max the more eyes the better.

2012-12-17 16:59 DogLostMax - Area Co-ordinator - Cornwall & Area Volunteer - Durham & Ireland

Will spread the word to friends in area.Hope she is found soon. Will keep an eye on the thread in case I can assist with a search if needed.

2012-12-17 12:16 DogLostMoogie - Area Volunteer, Cornwall

New POSSIBLE SIGHTING of a black dog (not sure of breed) wondering around on its own near The Coppice Pub, Lanner TR16 6JB. Owner is going up there to put some posters up just in case.
Jenny, I'm on the case about the mines. Hopefully get them checked out asap

2012-12-16 23:47 DogLostMoogie - Area Volunteer, Cornwall

That's a shame but it's good we've eliminated the two dogs. Regarding the mines, the owner has checked mines close by to where she went missing. There's no movement or sound coming from them. Owner thinks that she's possibly been taken.
I've left a message with zz with location of where she went missing with regards to local mine shafts.

2012-12-16 19:17 Unknown

Thanks Moogie, just heard the Lab found in St Day woods is a male, plus a Lurcher so 2 dogs saved today , shame it isnt Rene hope she comes home tomorrow.Is it possible the mine experts could be called in tomorrow, just incase.

2012-12-16 16:44 DogLostMoogie - Area Volunteer, Cornwall

Yes owners out looking and postering. There is a travelers site nearby and I've advised not to go there but I've given her the number someone who can liaise with the travelers.

I put posters up from Gwennap Parish church all down through to St Day including United Downs dump yesterday,I will get some out in Lanner tomorrow as I've been out looking for another dog today

2012-12-16 13:32 DogLostMoogie - Area Volunteer, Cornwall

Just spokem to owner. There has been a new POSSIBLE SIGHTING of Rene about 15 minutes ago on Consols Road, United Downs area of St Day. She was seen with a lurcher (which isn't the owners dog) but the pair didn't look as though they were with anyone. A friend of the owner who saw them called her name and she looked round but couldn't keep up with them as they ran off). There are posters up in this area but if anyone is local to here please could you keep a look out and call 01209 820874 with any sightings. Please bump

Owner has checked all mines close to where she went missing and is pretty confident she hasn't gone down them. I've messaged zz with situation. She has contacts etc with mine experts and can hire out listening devises.

2012-12-16 07:17 Unknown

Is it possible to get someone out to do a check of all the local open mine shafts?I know there used t obe someone on here who knew of someone who helped with this sort of thing.As there has been no sightings I am worried she has gone down one.

2012-12-15 22:03 DogLostMoogie - Area Volunteer, Cornwall

Thank you tiana for postering and supporting owners. I've posted on Facebook group to see if there's anyone who can poster in the areas you suggested below

2012-12-15 18:12 Tiana

If any one else local ??? can put posters up around Lanner (by the Coppice Pub & road which runs down to the left of it. Also St Day village itself & Carharrack village would be appreciated. Spent this afternoon out doing area near their home but ran out of posters, as gave to locals on horse back/dog walkers etc. Unfortunately busy tomo, so hope others can keep momentum going. Owners are lovely & very worried, so hope we can help - they really appreciate all the efforts of DogLost thus far.

Also spoke with owner who gave me actual address that Rene went from, very close to the back of Gwennap Pitt. Have put posters up around perimeter but believe Rene may also have gone down towards Carharrack. As area v.rural with small holdings, left poster at Agricultural Animal Food store nearby & also at Mounts Inn Pub, Redruth - the spa shop along the new Redruth Highway etc - which the fields that Rene went missing in back onto. Gave owner more advice about how to canvass & raise awareness. She may contact local Redruth cab firms to ask if their drivers can keep an eye out.

2012-12-15 14:28 DogLostMoogie - Area Volunteer, Cornwall

Just spoken to the owner. She lives on a farm with 7 other dogs. Four went out and only 3 came back when called. There are at least 7 open mines. The nearest ones have been checked many times and it doesn't seem as though she has fallen down any. Other mines further a field have not been checked thoroughly and have advised to do so and ask for further assistance in searching the mines further with experts etc. I've given the contact name and number to liaise with travelers. Advised to plaster the area with posters to make her too hot to handle if she has been taken. Thanks Tiana for postering and searching. Any more assistance in postering in the area is very welcome!
