Lost Springer Spaniel - Luton area

[Piglet]

Bit of a longshot really.....but Alf the Springer has gone walkabouts...his owners have a positive sighting of him around the M1 Toddington Junction, Jct 12, heading towards Sundon Pit in Upper Sundon (I don't know the area, hopefully that might make sense).

If you're in the area and see anything can you make contact through Dogslost - full details on the link below. Needless to say Alf's owner is in pieces at the moment

Im at a loose end tomorrow, im just outside Milton Keynes.

I will go and have a drive around for a couple of hours.

Hope he turns up.

[Piglet]

Thanks, there are full details on http://springthing.3.forumer.com/index.php?showtop... (the thread is pretty long though...)

I can't imagine what it must feel like to know that your dog is out there on its own somewhere

[spikeyhead]

I drove that route this morning, may dig out the bicycle tomorrow and go for a ride if the weather is ok. I need some exercise.

Hoping for a good result, fingers crossed.

Springers can cover some ground but I think that's pushing it....thanks for the excuse to bump though

Aww. I hope Alf is soon reunited with his family. I would hate to lose my Dog.
Some friends have a Springer, and she escaped the garden a couple of years ago. After two days, they spotted her in some local fields, covered in mud and tired. She came to them, and has never attempted an escape since.

Have you called the police or the local pound, they could be in there.

Good job Luton is no where near Vietnam, they'd have him on the table by now

We lost ours once.

I phoned all the taxi/local delivery companies in the area, mentioned £50 and we had her back in four hours.

Hope it (or anything) works for them.

[root 666]

Thanks, I think that is where they are heading off to search today. They (and others) have rung all of the dog wardens, pounds, rescues etc. and postered around the likely areas as well as ringing local farms, vets, network rail etc. etc.

[ali_kat]

Shameless bump for any news please?

[Piglet]

Nothing as yet...the searchers are out and there are a good few people ringing and emailing everyone they can think of who might be able to help.

Someone suggested that Amazon.co.uk have a big warehouse along the motorway at Toddington - I don't know if it's true, if so does anyone know anyone who works there who could stick up some posters or post on an internal message board?

That's near Brogborough, some way from Toddington at J13 of the M1.

What a superb idea, never thought of that when our Collie took himself for a walk.
