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

Time to take stock

No calls today. Food untouched on kennel.
Not heard from the bloodhound club secretary - Ian from Bournemouth has sent her a message but thinks she might be doing the bloodhound show in Bedfordshire.
Have spoken to a lovely lady called Kate from the Rugby area who has trials dogs (border collies) who are excellent at tracking humans. They've not tried tracking another dog before now though. The paw prints are still there at the Lount but there's been a steady wind since Wednesday and although Kate is prepared to give it a go tomorrow morning, we feel that with no food gone, the best case scenario is that Meg the dog picks up a scent but eventually it will lead nowhere, she could get stressed, and we will be using up Kate's time, when it may be better "saved up" for another sighting.
We feel there's no point in setting the trap at the moment either, until either the food has gone for a few days or there are more sightings.
With only 6 days until we depart to New Zealand we need a bit of a think through various scenarios.
For the first time in many weeks we have a clear weekend to prepare.
