Sky, our beloved Black Labrador, went missing on 1st December 2008. We have been trying very hard to find him, and have been overwhelmed by the number of neighbours, friends and complete strangers who have been offering help and support. With so many people helping we cannot make calls in person to keep everyone up to date with the search, so this blog is our way of letting everyone know what is happening. CONTACT NUMBERS FOR US ARE 07951-722747 (PREFERABLE) OR 07921-545615

A quiet day

Typical - when you're not rushed off your feet in work and have a day at home, the phone stops ringing.
Thanks to Val and Fay who went brainwashing anyone they could find today.
Thanks to Jo who first rang us on Thursday evening, for ringing back to enquire how we're getting on.
Tomorrow's plan:
Ring Oak FM and get an update out to local listeners.
Ring Ann the dog warden to give her an update and check there's not another black lab reported missing or loose.
Wait for phone calls - the hunt yesterday could have moved him to quite a different area. As people go to work etc they may see posters and we just have to be patient.
The behaviour of Twycross dog is bolder than Green Lane dog. Either it's another dog, or Sky / Green Lane dog is getting more confident or more hungry. Since the description isn't a skinny dog you might (??) hope more confident which would be fantastic, as someone might eventually entice him to them.
Plan to keep the trap going off Barton Lane at the bottom of Green Lane.
Tim put a new kennel up yesterday with an internal camera this time, alongside Green Lane but in a different location from previously. We are aiming for low maintenance - once daily car battery switchover, and tripe stick instead of a dog's dinner. Today 2 out of 4 tripe sticks had gone but the camera had swivelled backwards! Hope to catch footage tonight / tomorrow. Mr Foxy is under suspicion right now.
