WARNING

It looks like there is a new doglost scam doing the rounds

Individuals whatsapping owners pretending to be part of the local “doglost team” and urge you to register on doglost.co.uk (always recommended anyway) . Will then start telling you that you need thermal drone support urgently (at a cost). Once i informed her that i needed to verify her identity I was blocked

Initially appeared genuine - but as we know the local Doglost volunteers quickly realised it was a scam. For info - the key local doglost contacts for this area are Lissy Timms, Debbie Evans and Sarah Gale.

Please - if you lose your dog - always try and use a missing dog team, they put their own numbers on and are used to these tactics, so can filter out this rubbish

In our area free support and guidance is always available from ourselves, PETS LOST AND FOUND IN OXFORDSHIRE and Doglost - you will never be charged. Always check whether the person contacting is genuine or just use a team (none of us ever charge) to help, and never pay money to someone promising to get you help or equipment

Against all the odds, Lulu is reunited and on her way home to London ❤️

Lulu had crossed the motorway carriageway when she escaped - thankfully making it across unharmed and obviously headed for the Costa drive through (girl after my own heart).

Someone had seen her there at 1130 last night so we piled down there and waited for her owners, walked the perimeter slowly and quietly. No more than 50 yards round her owner glanced back and saw Lulu following us. Didn’t panic, didn’t flap, dropped straight to floor when asked and Lulu came straight over and was immediately secured

Clever Lulu had sat in the bushes for 18 hours in a completely unknown place, quiet as a mouse, waiting for her mum to come and pick her up ❤️

We all cried

REUNITED - ❤️❤️ CHESTER ❤️❤️

Well this was a first

As you all know Chester went missing from the field by Dogs for Good yesterday morning, legged it across the dual carriageway to cardus school and then ran down to the motorway roundabout. Rather precarious situation to say the least.

Team deployed along with plenty of volunteers who were searching the area but there were no sightings after 10:30 am

At around 8pm last night a sighting came in of him back at cardus running scared. One of the team had decided to divert that way on the way home and arrived just as he’d been seen so we were able to keep the sighting off Facebook to limit how many people were in the area as a scared little dog by a busy road is not what anyone wants.

Area was searched with the thermal camera and an animal believed to be Chester was seen hiding in the hedgerows. He wasn’t willing to come out and as we knew he’d sit tight until morning everyone left the area at around 1030 to charge up cameras and get a couple of hours sleep

Owners were back at 430 am, cameras installed, and another trip back up to the area with the other resident dog. No sign

More cameras and the thermal dropped off just gone 10am ready for the long wait to get another sighting. Drone pilot was en route to get there around lunchtime

As the owners were installing them, one of the team got home, the other was on his way home passing Middleton Cheney, a call came in to say he’d been spotted in Middleton Cheney.

Everyone relocated except me as he’d been spotted in my road 🤣

I walked out of my front door and there was little Chester just running to his dad who’d just pulled up

Had some strange reunites before - honestly we’ve never had one where the dog (who lives in north Banbury so doesn’t know Middleton Cheney at all) turns up at the house of the team trying to find him. Obviously he thought we were taking too long to find him, so decided to hand himself in.

Immediately brought into the kitchen to keep him safe while dad parked up. Absolutely fine apart from needing a good drink.

Even managed to go back and see him scorch past on my ring doorbell 🫣

Welcome home clever boy !
