Catt harris 9 Apr, 19:04

Hi Robert, can you please confirm if the sightings were Sam or just wildlife please

robert geissler 9 Apr, 19:11

Very sure it was her yes. I believe she has left the area now as no sightings. I am going back to the feeding station tonight it wasn't touched last night if nothing again I will remove it. I will update this site afterwards.

Catt harris 9 Apr, 19:45

Have you gone back to the site she went missing from with your unwashed clothes and some smelly food? Sit in the car with all the doors and boot open. No lights on. And just sit there talking. Most important thing is dont call her name as this will scare her more

robert geissler 9 Apr, 19:49

Yes smelly clothes and wet food has been left Tuesday 7th April with fresh smelly top left as well last night 8th April checking the site now 9th April

Catt harris 9 Apr, 20:08

You need to keep changing the clothes to keep the scent fresh. Have you registered her on lostdog.co.uk?

robert geissler 9 Apr, 20:22

I changed the top last night. There has been nothing drank or eaten was a camera there but the owner needs to review it. The dog has be registered on that site yes as well as the chip company.

There is yes. I have been to the sight this morning at 6 30 am the food and water is still there. I have also left an item of clothing there on the ground next to the food station

robert geissler 8 Apr, 12:50

Catt harris 8 Apr, 13:00

Make sure you keep changing the clothes over to keep the scent fresh. Have you spoken to the owners and staff at the club? Have they got cameras out side the property?

Kevin Garthwaite 8 Apr, 13:00
