OK GUYS I DESPERATELY NEED YOUR HELP - TED'S GONE AGAIN!!!!

Post by suziebear »

:( I know we posted about our little dog a couple of months back and we were fortunate enough to get him back, he just trotted up our road after 7 hours. However, on Wed 13th August, he disappeared again , we don't know how as we have fenced in every available hole, brick whatever in since he went last time. I haven't posted it before now, because we seriously thought he would come back. We are all devastated, especially our daughter and we leave his bed outside with food and water every time we go out in the hope he will come back. He had been seen around the Country Club Sesmarias area, he had even spent the afternoon with a family up there, who didnt know who he was until they saw the poster at the shop the day after, his tag has come off. Last tues 19th Aug evening, one of the guys in the bar at Smilers said he saw him at the cafe at Poco Partido? We have posted pictures and details around on as many bins as we can, & other places, informed the GNR in Lagoa and others - even the Family Frost man has a photo of him. We have had a few phone calls with sightings, and have spent a great deal of time searching for him everywhere over the past two weeks, so I need your help now, a few people have said that he will probably have been taken as he is a Staffie - but he is micro chipped and I have informed the chip company. We live in hope. His name is TED, he is a 3year old Staffordshire Bull Terrier, brindle (brown,red/gold) very loveable and friendly, (although if anything has happened to him whilst he has been out there, I couldnt say) He has a white flash on his chest and had an ORANGE collar and a white flea collar on. If anyone knows where he is, or have seen him, even if you want to remain anonymous, PLEASE,PLEASE contact us on 914522079. We are offering a reward for his safe return. Thankyou

Hi

:cry: Sadly,Ted hasnt turned up yet, although we have had sightings from different people who say he has been seen nr Poco Partido, the only definite sighting of him was on Friday 15th August around the Sesmarias Country Club area, which is only 5 mins away from our house, although on the opposite side of the road to Country Club Sesmarias, so we cant understand why he didnt find his way home from there. We are sure now that he has either been knocked down or, the most obvious one is that someone has got him.

As it happens, the GNR brought a dog to our house this morning who they thought was Ted, but it wasnt, bless. It is a bull dog that is the same colour as Ted, with a white flash on his chest, he has a chain collar and a white flea collar, he looks like he has been looked after, although he is a bit skinny. The GNR couldnt get any response from any of the refugios or kennels today and as tomorrow is a holiday, guess who has took him in for a couple of days. There is no way we could have turned him out again and the 3 GNR guys were genuinley concerned as to what would happen to him as everywhere was shut. So we are fostering him until everywhere opens again on Tuesday. So if anyone knows of anyone who has lost a bulldog, pm me AND if anyone sees my little TED, pm me also, we are now offering a reward for the safe return of him we refuse to give up.
Thanksxx

Hi

Have you tried encontra-me.org. They are pretty good and send out notices to all their members. Just a thought.

Hi people, as it has been almost 6 months since Ted disappeared, I thought I would give it another go on the Forum. We met up with some people earlier this week and we got chatting about dogs, like you do. It turns out that they saw Ted, not that far away from where we live at the end of September and have seen him since on a lead being walked by a man. Unfortunately, they dont know where the man lives and until we told them, had not seen the posters we originally put around for Ted. So, anybody out there, please keep an eye out for him, who knows, the person who has got him now may not know that he belonged to someone. Saying that he is chipped, so am guessing they havent taken him to the vet as yet. Any help appreciated please. :(

So sorry to hear you are still looking for Ted. Can't see any pics of him on the forum tho. It might help. Looked in Chit Chat and didn't see any there either.

I have a home at Sesmarias Country Club and would be pleased to keep an eye out for him when we are there from this Thursday. Please put a photo on the forum so we can recognise him.
