Hi there, I am sorry to hear that your dog has been stolen. If you are interested, we are forming a group to have a meeting with police officers covering the south east to highlight the fact that dog theft in our area is a problem. My dog was stolen in April and it has been hard to get the support of the authorities. Please contact me at jodie.coller@ntlworld.com if you would like to be involved. Best wishes Jodie

Carol, I have sent email again. Sorry for delay. Sometimes owners don't understand that there really is a chance to get their dog back and so I think they withdraw mentally, as well as physically. They have to shut it out because its too hard to face. You have done extremely well Carol. Thank you. Sometimes dogs do crop up and even dig wardens check this site, so you really never know. Thanks to you, Dotty is on here. x
Carol

There's another dog stolen from a Colchester park: From Animal Friends Insurance - "We have just received a message that an 18 months old salt and peppered colour Miniature Schnauzer has just been taken from the Langam, Colchester area. She was taken by a man in a black Range Rover whilst the owner was nearby!"
Keep a look out in Colchester areas and BE AWARE!

Hi Carol, try this link https://www.facebook.com/pages/create/ best if the owner or you if you know more about the situation does it. I'm guessing it's cause or community you want. No expert myself to be honest. x
Carol
