dirtychicken Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 We spent most of yesterday afternoon trying to catch a crossbreed bitch who was wandering around Easton-In-Gordano Services She looks like a leggy terrier type crossbreed with a short coat and a long tail. She is white with ginger patches. Despite looking grubby, she looks reasonably healthy and her coat still has some sheen to it. She has recently had pups and doesn't look to be very old After talking to the manageress at the services, it would appear that it had been initially thought that she had escaped from a van in the early hours of yesterday morning, but then transpired that she had been spotted in the area by the hotel staff throughout the previous night. So she had been in the area from the evening of Saturday 21st June. There is little doubt that she'd been abandoned as despite being terrified, she was choosing to stay within the boundaries of the services, even though there are vast fields bordering the area and houses beyond that. The dog warden and police refused to do anything to help yesterday, but she was thankfully caught by the dog warden this morning. She is now at the kennels used by the North Somerset DW and will move into rescue in 7 days. They weren't very helpful with specific info so I can't say exactly where she is or exactly where she'll be I've had a look on the DogLost website and can't see a dog matching her description.

Rudi Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 Good on you for trying to catch her It's ridiculous the police don't come out - even as an accident prevention measure - imagine the chaos if she'd got onto the carriageway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owl Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 I'll crosspost to K9-999 yahoogroup. I know a dog was lost at Gordano but can't remember what or when. I think it was a Petsearch posting on K9-999, will try to find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtychicken Posted June 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 I know Rudi If she'd gone down one bank she would either have been on the slip road or the actual M5 Thanks Phebe I've just checked Petsaerch and have found a young JRT boy went missing in Clapton in Gordano just over 2 weeks ago but can't see anything else there.
