***ROSIE REUNITED***
We are so so happy that darling Rosie is now home safe after being missing for two weeks with not a single sighting in the entire time she was missing!
Rosie went missing on 19/08/23 while out on her evening walk at Bertha Loch, Bertha Park, Perth. She was doing a walk which she had done before and was there one minute and gone the next.
The night she went missing her dad walked miles and miles searching for her but there was sadly no sign.
The next day Missing Pets were contacted for further assistance.
We offered the standard advice of leaving scented items of clothing at missing point, make sure someone is at home and also important steps like making sure microchip information is up to date and other relevant authorities were contacted (police, dog warden, local kennels).
Team members assisted with ground searching with thermal scopes and one of our volunteer drone pilots Jamie came out the same day we were alerted Rosie was missing with his thermal drone.
James who is a member of the organisation Search Dogs For Lost Dogs Scotland and search dog Raven assisted in Rosie’s search too. Raven was able to indicate on more than one occasion that there was a fresh scent of Rosie still within the Bertha Loch area.
Despite all our efforts, Rosie was proving a champion at hide & seek!
Feeding stations were set up, BBQ’s tried, miles and miles searched on by foot by volunteers and local residents of Bertha Park. Local businesses helped with displaying posters too.
A special thank you to Starfish Cakes & Bakes for supplying yummy brownies and refreshments to the volunteers!
All the team were baffled to where Rosie could be as there was just no sign.
This morning though Katie received a call from a gentleman called Saif saying he thought he had found the missing dog from Bertha Park and that she had wandered into his takeaway Baba’s!
Katie didn’t quite believe it until the camera was switched on and there was Rosie quite happy 😃
Chrissie and Ross rushed to Bertha Park while Rosie’s dad Mark headed to the location too.
As you can imagine there was lots of happy tears from everyone at such a reunion ❤️
Considering Rosie has been missing for two weeks she is doing very well. She bas been checked over by a vet and is doing fine. She has lost weight and was covered in ticks but nothing being back home with her dad won’t sort.
Thank you so so much everyone who has been involved in Rosie’s search and for all the lovely kind words of support and comfort you’ve given her dad these past two difficult weeks.
Welcome home Rosie! ❤️🐶🐾
***Rosies dad has also kindly set up a Just Giving page so help us continue the work we do rescuing animals across Perth & Kinross.
