Rachel Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Frankie, 6 y/o B & T GSD x was hit by a car on her walk tonight and has bolted. She went missing from close to her home in Scarletts Road, Colchester, CO1 2EZ but the police have had reports of a loose dog several miles away so she could be anywhere. Nobody currently knows how badly she may be injured. Owner and half the neighbourhood are out searching and the police and emergency vets have been informed. Frankie is wearing a collar and tag and is also microchipped. Frankie is a PFK dog we rehomed 3 years ago. Any information or sightings we can be contacted at any time on 01353 777399. If we dont pick up, please leave a message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owl Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Just spoke to Dave. They have to get in touch with Frankie's people to check if she has been found this morning, otherwise she will be going up on Doglost later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owl Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Just looked at satellite map. There is lots of parkland/woodland near there where she could have holed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rachel Posted June 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 As a result of a sighting reported to the dog warden this morning Frankie has been found and her mum is with her now. Frankie has what appear to be 2 broken legs and is on the way to the vets. Not as good an outcome as we hoped but at least she has been reunited and fingers crossed will make a good recovery. Will update when I hear more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rachel Posted June 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Thanks Ange Update from the vets is that Frankie has a badly broken back leg and some nasty lacerations and is dehydrated and in shock but thankfully no signs of any internal injuries. She is on IV fluids and antibiotics and will be stitched up and have the leg set later today once she is rehydrated. The break is nasty and may need a refereal for specialist pinning but we wont know for certain for a while. The good thing is that, although nasty, non of her injuries are life threatening so she should be OK. Thanks to everybody that has helped, crossposted or just sent nice messages. It is much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
