Is anyone in Lincolnshire? My friend has lost her whippet - mising for a week now :(

[spiderlight]

Duchess the whippet is missing in the Anderby Creek area. Duchess's DogLost page with photos. My friend was on holiday when she lost her (ran off during a walk) and is absolutely heartbroken. She was lost in Anderby Creek and there's been a possible sighting in Utterby. If any of you guys are in the area, please please keep an eye out and get this lovely girl back home where she belongs.

So sorry to hear this.

Is your friend ringing all the local Councils every day? They may not automatically liaise with each other. Make sure all the Dog Wardens have been given an accurate description and a really good photo, preferably one head, one full body. Also check with any other rescue kennels in the area, sometimes people end up taking them there rather than via Councils. Also, circulate details round the vets in the area, in case she is injured and brought in.

Good luck.

I'm in Lincolnshire, but I've never even heard of Anderby Creek I'm afraid, Lincolnshire is a big county.

I second everything that scuttle said though.

Good luck :(

I'm not in Lincolnshire any more but I've shared the doglost page on facebook and asked my Lincs friends to do the same. I've been to Anderby Creek too, there's nothing there as I recall except lots of beach and a caravan park.

Thanks so much for sharing! Scuttlebutter, I think she's doing all that but I'll pass it on just in case

I've seen & shared this on fb

Parents are at coast not far from Anderby Creek & lots of people are looking out for this lost doggie, fingers crossed for her

Anderby Creek is part of our lovely coastline between Sutton on Sea & Skegness gritters

Lots of dog lovers around there, fingers crossed for her safe return.

I wil pass it on to all our local doggy community, we're about an hour away but lots of us go that way to the sea.

Let us know when she's found. x

Oh near Skeggy? About an hour away from me then.

I hope she is found soon, I saw the doglost poster on LGTs fb page, they're a really good bunch, they all spent 4 days searching for a lost greyhound not long ago.

Good luck x

Thanks. No joy today, apparently :( I wish I was close enough to go out looking, but I'm in S Wales so it's a bit of a step.

Whippet family in Somerset sending positive thoughts. Recommend sharing this with Scruples Whippet Rescue, Lurcher Link and all major dog charity sites.

I've posted it on FB page. Hope she's found.

Any news?

I've been wondering if there's any news on Duchess too - I saw it on LincsFM twitter feed.

GrittersWife - Anderby Creek is the nicest bit of beach on the Lincs coast. There's a free car park, toilets, ice cream shop and cloud bar (v.cool and free). And nothing else. Great place!

Second that review Snap we love going there JUST for the reasons you mention, nothing much there at all.

Will carry some pom Bears with me in case i bump into you nex time!

Hope Duchess is soon found x

I've only just seen this. Have asked to be added to the FB group so I can share it as I have a few friends who live around that area and also lots of doggy walking friends who cover a lot of that countryside.

Thanks, everyone. Duchess is still missing :(

Shoutymomma, Duchess is originally from Scruples so they're already involved in the search, and lots of other rescues and organisations are aware via Dogpages. I'm not sure about Lurcher Link though - will try them in case they haven't been contacted.

It might be worth putting an add in countrymans weekly (or is it times ?), if she has been picked up and passed into the fraternity that reads the paper , an advert may well get her back . A friend had a lurcher stolen and managed to get it back after placing an ad in this paper . Got to be worth a go. I think a lady from the dogslost site told them to do it .

Bumping this because Duchess is STILL missing. There have been sightings, still in the same area - the most recent was in Chapel St Leonards on 12th June. If anyone is going to Lincolnshire on holiday, please keep your eyes peeled for Duches and help get her home to her family.
