Help!
Went to walk dogs at Alderly edge . Our sons beagle has run off . A farmer had his shot gun out somewhere miles away and it's spooked her.
Spent 3 hours looking for her but have had to come home with the grandkids
Can anyone help either with vets numbers or Facebook
I'm not on Facebook
Grandkids are so upset and so am I tbh
We live 20 mins away in the car so are going back after kids are fed

Fantastic news

drinkingwineoutofamug · 09/12/2021 12:00

Clean bill of health! Had jabs, go back in 4 weeks. Apart from tiny cuts on her ears from brambles , nothing.
The vet was in awe.
She's back to howling and attempting to jump at cars 😂

That's no Beagle that's a Sheagle :)

Just go to shows that we view our dogs as reliant on us when in fact they can cope quite nicely on their own when needed. The sheep thing is unbelievable!! That's probably how she avoided getting caught for so long, she was part of the flock. I'd love her to be able to tell you the whole story!

drinkingwineoutofamug · 09/12/2021 13:53

@userxx it would be a best seller!

Aww bless, I'm so pleased she's home and fine.

That look on her face is just adorable, she looks so impatient like you are late picking her up 🤣. So funny she was hiding with sheep, beagles really are a breed of their own!

TheSpottedZebra · 09/12/2021 16:34

Aww, glad she's been OK-d by the vet. And that she has indeed reverted back into 'pet' mode.

So odd about the sheep! You'll be puzzling over that for ever more.
Wishing you some restful sleep tonight, and hope Santa brings her a sheep toy for Christmas.

Santahatesbraisedcabbage · 09/12/2021 17:37

Ewe wouldn't believe it would you??
Maybe the sheep sensed your ddog needed warming up and protected?

gogohm · 09/12/2021 17:47

Love a happy ending. Thankfully every time my ddog has gone missing hes either turned up at the car (miles away) or the house (if near home) clay pigeon shoots have been one cause,

drinkingwineoutofamug · 09/12/2021 19:23

I've bought a sheep toy for Christmas for her .
Both dogs met for the first time today , now considering these 2 are best mates, when the beagle was running free and they saw each, nothing. No recognition.
Today , sniffed at each other then beagle jumped my dog and play commenced .
Beagle has bad farts from eating whatever for the past near 3 weeks . She can now clear a room. Quickly.
But she follows you farting so you can't escape .
Love dogs 🤢

Maybe. It will go down in folk lore round these parts. The beagle that thought it was a sheep 😂

Maybe sheep items will bring you luck forever more op?
Your ddog is the luckiest I know.

She certainly is 😊

I am so happy for you. I’m part of a dog trapping team and I know that the worst feeling in the world is when they are half in that trap but not enough to be caught! Sitting watching on the camera as they managed to do everything but set the trap off it’s just so frustrating!

It surprises many lost dog owners how quickly they go from pet to feral run away, and then back to pet once they’ve caught.

It took seconds. Went to the crate , she sniffed us and then howled! The best sound every, tail was wagging.
I've asked my dog to ask the beagle what really happened😂
My dog looked at me with a head tilt and snorted. Think she understood the mission.

Congratulations, didn't she do well keeping healthy for such a remarkable length of time.

To make her really happy you are probably going to have to get her a bowl of sheep poo for Christmas.

drinkingwineoutofamug · 10/12/2021 09:41

I'm doing a fancy scrap book thing for Christmas for them.
A story of a beagle who goes off on an adventure, making friends with sheep and cows and being helped home by a wizard
The names for all the characters are places around the edge .
Anyone got photos of sheep and cows they own Orr know would be gratefully appreciated 😂

So happy for you all.

Glad that apart from the farts all is going well Op Xmas Grin

Marshwawows · 13/12/2021 17:33

@drinkingwineoutofamug

Look what we caught !!!!!!
😮😲 well done!!
Santahatesbraisedcabbage · 13/12/2021 19:47

I reckon the local newspaper would run your story op. Maybe give the fee to an animal charity?
Or buy a GPS tracker for ddog??

XelaM · 15/12/2021 18:04

OMG I just saw the happy ending!!!! Sooo happy for you!!!

ShakesFist · 15/12/2021 20:12

What a relief! So pleased for you all xxx

NowNumber5 · 15/12/2021 20:40

How is she doing, one week on, back into civilisation @drinkingwineoutofamug?

drinkingwineoutofamug · 15/12/2021 21:40

@NowNumber5

How is she doing, one week on, back into civilisation *@drinkingwineoutofamug*?
She's doing brilliantly thank you for asking. Eating like a horse , but now cutting the food amount back down. I see her nearly every day and when I walk through the door i get aaawwwoooo and her little tail wagging so fast and she stamps her paws . What a welcome.

Happy new year everyone.
Just thought I would give you a little update.
We had a lovely Christmas and beagle loved her sheep toy.
She's been back to the vets for more injections and worming. Pads are healed.
She is now back to having her walks. She got a new harness for Xmas with catch me if you can down the side of it 😂
No off lead.
Never taking her back to alderley edge.
Happy ending all round
