Just want Mark to know that we're all still on the lookout and always will be till she's home. We 'aint giving up!

Mark, can you try again with the posters? Put them again roudn where lost and where sighted. If "they" have her, she could escape and then be spotted. Give it another whirl. x

2015-12-07 11:25 Mark

Thanks again, all for keeping things going. I have check the Facebook entries, and unfortunately they are not Poppy

Hi
Just a thought for u I own border collies and we rescue them to.. I had one jump over our 6 foot fence and run. Couldn't find it for months until someone stated to catch a crazy collie, you need a crazy collie as they often let their guards down when spotting their own breed playing especially if they are scared!
It worked for me 8 months later she was home (fence has been raised to 8 ft now) but might give u something to think about X

2015-11-27 08:28 Mark

I'm sure Poppy has been sold on by now, but I haven't checked any preloved Pet sites or Gumtree. I will have a look today. Thanks for the advise and thanks for keeping the search going xxx

2015-11-13 01:04 *

Youre welcome, have been sharing here here on my page Missing Dogs London/Kent & UK
Just wondered is she on gumtree or preloved any of those sites

2015-07-16 21:27 DogLostKimmybear - Area Co-ordinator, Essex & Hertfordshire borders

Poppy will stay on here until she gets home. Many times dogs do crop up months later and they get matched up and home! x

2015-07-08 10:55 Mark

Thanks x

2015-07-07 19:52 Alfred2004

Just to say that we're all still on the lookout and think of Poppy everyday. We're never giving up!! x

2015-06-29 10:44 Mark

Hi Liz000, thanks very much for the heads up! Unfortunately, this is not Poppy. Thanks very much for helping to keep the fire burning. Please keep searching!! Thanks very much for your support Mark x

2015-06-28 14:48 *

Hi i have been sharing poppy on my missing dog page via fbook, someone has suggested a dog on this website, 6th one down atm on there http://www.westendfarmkennels.co.uk/rehoming/listings Sorry not sure if markings and age may be right though, but pls check out incase

2015-05-14 20:34 Alfred2004

Mark, as I said before, there's not a day goes past when we don't think of Poppy and we will never stop looking for her. Until her return ..... Allison xxx

2015-05-06 13:11 Mark

I had a lady call me saying she had seen a similar dog in Datchworth, when nI got to the lady she confirmed that the dog had been taken to its owner by the dog warden - The dog looked just like Poppy, but it was male!! Its sad that it was not Poppy, but I am so very Grateful that People are still looking for her. I am grateful for any sightings, even if they turn out to be false alarms. Thank you all so very much! x

2015-05-01 19:46 Alfred2004

On way back from holiday in Devon. Will update posters. Poppy still in forefront of our minds and we will continue the search until she's home! Allison xx

2015-04-30 12:55 DogLostKimmybear - Area Co-ordinator, Essex & Hertfordshire borders

You are doing so well, even though it may seem like nothing's happening much, it is. It always is. If feeding station has not been touched for many weeks, then you need to try another spot where Poppy had been seen. These collie types are so clever. Keep renewing posters. I have altered them a little so it shows public she is still out there. x

2015-04-26 13:49 Ceri

I run a lot around that area so constantly looking out for Poppy...I wish with all my heart that I will spot her.

2015-04-15 17:28 Alfred2004

Will be walking there tomorrow Mark so will scan the area, Allison x

2015-04-12 12:53 Mark

I have spread Kebab meat and dog meat around Harmer Green Woods near the top of Turpins Ryde in case Popy smells it and comes out in the open!

2015-04-08 20:25 Alfred2004

I guessed as much xx

2015-04-08 12:59 Mark

Thanks, ALfred2004. I meant to say in my last post "The Feeding station hasn't had any results yet."

2015-04-07 20:30 Alfred2004

Just to say that the search goes on daily - please rest assured that we will never, ever stop looking! xxx

2015-04-07 17:11 Mark

Thanks Kimmybear! The Feeding station has had any results yet. I will email as many of the Vets in Hertforshire as I can tomorrow so they are aware of Poppy being missing and I willl request that they Scan the Chips of all dogs they see who may be Poppy!

2015-03-29 14:05 DogLostKimmybear - Area Co-ordinator, Essex & Hertfordshire borders

You are doing great! Agree, you must persevere and you are. Boy is it hard?! But so worth it when your fur baby is back in your arms. Some dogs, like collies, are very clever and manage to survive in the wild for months. But, they really want to be back home with you. So, keep going Mark, you are doing well! She may be on another part of her triangle now so whether this takes days or weeks to go round, we don't know, so keep this up at a place you have a definite sightings. Poster heavily so you will get more calls. Great stuff! Come on Pops, Daddy is trying his hardest. xxx

2015-03-13 15:57 Alfred2004

Perseverance may be required! We'll be walking that way tomorrow so will (as always) be on the lookout x

2015-03-13 08:13 Mark

Food I put down the other day has not been touched by any one! Scented again last night and left some of Poppy's old toys and bones, sprinkled some more dog biscuits in the viscinity.

2015-03-12 05:47 Alfred2004

Eyes are always peeled Mark - fingers crossed xx

2015-03-11 20:53 Mark

I have just been to the Woods at Harmer Green/Whores Wood area and created a Feeding Station which may get her out if she's there. I have left a Red Polo shirt soaked in urine and a big lump of dog food to intise her out. If you see the station please do not touch it! I also left a trail of "Scent" and small dog buiscuits (bakers complete) back down in to Digswell close to where she went missing. So please keep your eyes peeled as from now! Thanks Mark

Hi Alfred2004 good to catch up and thanks to you and everyone with your amazing help. It would be really good that if this is Poppy rather than run the risk of chasing her out of where she is potentially hiding, sightings are updated at a safe distance. The owner can then get down there and try coax her out. having items of clothing or toys with scent on as Mark has done will def help. It is also right that her name is not called out. If you were in the situation at the time that she was near to you, crouching down very low with soft voice throwing treats to see if she will come near, but no eye contact. If she not prepared to dont push it just let her feel safe. Mark I have tried to call if you see missed number that is me , will try later need to speak to you. x

2015-03-09 13:34 Alfred2004

I will be walking in the area later today and tomorrow morning - can the Dog Warden/Dog Lost team give tips on how to proceed should anyone see Poppy? I've heard it's best not to call out?? Advice please. Many thanks.

2015-03-09 11:17 DogLostJayne - Founder Doglost.

Tx to all...go team Poppy! please share if you know anyone in this area!

2015-03-09 11:02 Mark

FYI... the sighting was at 12.30-1pm Sunday Afternoon!

2015-03-09 08:58 Alfred2004

This is near to my stomping ground ...... will immediately make all other dog walkers/owners aware.

2015-03-09 08:58 Dog WardenDog Control East Herts

Do we know what time the sighting was, owner needs to go out before light and after dark. Dogs in flight tend only really surface when no one is about looking for food.

2015-03-09 08:54 Mark

The Helper had a sighting of Poppy in the Lockley's Wood/Harmer Green Woods/Whores Wood area, around the area of the Railway tunnels near to Turpins Ride, Oaklands, Welwyn. I Spent a couple of hours searching on Sunday 8th March, but had no further sightings. I will continue to search the area. I have left some old clothes in the vacinity, so she may smell them and hopefully re-appear!

I was pleased to see the article too - quite reassuring.
New 'Reward' posters will be going up tomorrow and over the weekend. People seem to have their awareness raised when they see the word 'reward' !!

2015-02-26 11:12 Mark

Thanks Barney and Ozzie's Mum for this article. If Poppy is there, the police will be in touch! But I like this article as it shows, hopefully, that the Police are concerned with stolen dogs! Thanks

Lewis Tyler & Son's Fencing, located on the Hatfield Park Estate, have today put up posters both in their premises and along the Estate footpaths. This is near to Cole Green/Birchell/Holwell roundabout area.

2015-02-11 13:17 Ginnys Mum

Drive along A414 daily to work and am keeping a look out. Will call in garden centre at Cole Green with poster (if there isn't one there already)

2015-02-10 20:36 Alfred2004

I have been in Suffolk for few days so have been out of loop but will be putting more posters up in Digswell/Burnham Green/Tewin area (Tewin may be good call as only 5 mins drive from Panshanger). Also people still keeping eyes peeled for Cole Green, Birchell/ Holwell roundabout area which isn't far. We 'aint giving up!!!

2015-02-10 16:14 Sarah

I found this one but am doubting it but feel I need to post across anyway - it's on a Pets Located listing, found CB2 which is about 25 miles from where lost (I think) so likely too far. Anyway, this is the link - unfortunately no photo Female black medium-haired dog found in Sawston (CB2) on 9th February 2015 http://www.petslocated.com/found-pets-list.php#.VNouP_msU9I

Can someone plot the sightings? We had the place where lost, Digswell, we have Cole Green and Panshager and also that possible one in Burnham Green. Are we getting any kind of triangle? x

2015-02-07 10:25 DogLostKimmybear - Area Co-ordinator, Essex & Hertfordshire borders

This could well be her, we have to pursue all avenues and whaever stay dog it is needs to be found. Poppy's owner said we had a sighting in Panshanger and he is out there now postering. PLEASE can we have helpers to get word out withposters atthe sighted locations asap. There seems to be very few helpers in this area??? Thank you. x

2015-02-05 14:23 Louise

update from Facebook- apparently dog seen was more like a Shetland Collie/sheepdog????? but you never know- Poppy may well look smaller or a bit different now after being missing for all this time.

2015-02-05 13:36 Louise

possible new sighting of Poppy between Elizabeth House towards Lidl in Panshanger, WGC, last night 6pm ish. Info forwarded to owner, details taken from 'The Dog Directory' page on Facebook.

2015-02-01 13:16 DogLostKimmybear - Area Co-ordinator, Essex & Hertfordshire borders

Have texted owners (if there is a sighting by all means call owners direct). This is very possible, so thank you Louise. We need to try and plot her route to form a triangle from where lost. Collies are very clever at living wild, so I am very hopeful. x

2015-02-01 13:12 DogLostKimmybear - Area Co-ordinator, Essex & Hertfordshire borders
