    My friend found a dog in the beauparc/yellow furze area just outside Navan. Looks like a jack Russell and seems to be pregnant. If anyone knows anyone who's missing a dog on the area could you let me know please.

    Try the local vets for a microchip and ensure you get proof of ownership before handing him over. I hope you find his owners soon.

    A friend of mine fostered a dog recently.
    Dog had been neglected terribly and was in a pathetic state altogether. Recently gave birth to six pups, and died on the operating table for five minutes as she'd eaten coal and sticks due to not being fed.

    The dog has gone missing this morning from a locked garden in the Ballycullen area in Dublin. She is very unwell and distressed and needs to get home.

    If you could consider sharing it on Facebook or Twitter, that would be amazing. Or even just keep an eye out if you're in the area.

    Thanks.

    I've posted to every website and facebook page I know of that might help, including here.

    I'm hoping so too. My friend is absolutely distraught, and I'm upset too as I met the dog and she's such a sweet thing, but with a broken heart from her first year of life.

    If you can help at all by sharing or you know someone in the area and let them know, that would be amazing. Thank you.

    Hi All

    Gracie is missing over 24 hours now.

    However, we have had some very promising sightings of her this morning down at the Old Mill pub and on the Bohernabreena Road, heading towards the cemetery. Can anyone around this area please, please keep an extra-sharp eye out for her and call the number on the Facebook post if they spot her. We are heartsick with worry and desperate to get her back.

    Thanks so much

    Just to update guys, I'm home now after eleven solid hours of searching for her. Saw her with my own eyes in Oldcourt Cottages (near Lidl Ballycullen) but she got over a wall and away from me. Spent the next two hours knocking on every house that could have an adjoining garden but no joy. I'm convinced she's a whippet crossed with a kangaroo. We've put posters through the letterboxes of all the houses we didn't get to knock into before it got too late. I have food and water left out for her in the last place she was spotted, and will be back out first thing in the morning. Thank you to everyone and please keep sending positive vibes Gracie's way.

    ***GRACIE IS HOME!!!!!!***
    Guys, I am an emotional wreck here. After posting on Facebook a couple of hours ago saying how down I was, I'm now walking on air.


    My sister and I were watching tv at about 1am and I nipped to the downstairs loo (overshare I know, sorry). I heard a dog crying and assumed it was on the tv. I went back in and asked Sinead had Stella on Modern Family just been whimpering and she said no. So I went out and opened the front door and there she was, sitting on the front step.

    Guys, anyone who knows me will tell you that I'm not religious and I don't believe in fate, or meant to be, or miracles, but this is a 100% bona fide miracle. I'm still in shock.

    Brilliant news. Wonder what she got up to? Is she looking ok?
    Been watching this but nothing I could do as I'm other side of the country. You have the makings of a Disney film script there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,099 ✭✭✭maggiepip


    Oh wow, was just checking in to see was there any news of the poor thing, thats absolutely fantastic!


  • Registered Users Posts: 550 ✭✭✭beyondbelief67


    I was dreading opening this when I saw the update, so happy for you and Gracie too,totally a miracle.
    Lots of hugs in store for her I'm sure, but thrilled beyond words that she's home again, and safe.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,824 ✭✭✭Qualitymark


    BRILLIANT! Cyberhug and pet-pet-pet sent!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,626 ✭✭✭Gloomtastic!


    Amazing story! Well done to all concerned. That dog obviously knew she was onto a good thing, she's lucky to have you. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,824 ✭✭✭Qualitymark


    And the great thing is that now she's identified your gaff as her gaff. That's the main hurdle hurdled. (If that's not a tactless way to talk about your kangaroo cross!)

    Lost: 2 medium sized black and white dogs, one male, one female, border collie cross from around the Kilgarvan area of Kerry. Possible they went across country. Been missing since last evening and am very worried as they have never done anything like this before. Any information would be appreciated. The female is microchipped.

    Thankfully they have just been found in a wood a bit away. Seems they went off after rabbits or foxes. They're exhausted after their little adventure.

    Hi
    Two dogs followed me this morning from Cappagh Park.
    One Alsation and what looks like a chocolate coloured gun dog maybe a Labrador.
    If anyone knows who owns them pm me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,687 ✭✭✭✭Penny Tration


    Hi guys,

    This little guy (jack Russel) was straying today, wandered into Artane castle.

    I brought him to amy Lara vets and he's not chipped. Appears to have something like conjunctivitis in his eyes. I'll know for sure tonight, have a wonderful vet doing a house call in about an hour.

    If anyone knows him or his owner, please pm me. I'm keeping him in the house until the owner is found, but he doesn't like other dogs so keeping him separated from Lola has been difficult! Lovely, friendly little thing. Proof of ownership required.


  • Registered Users Posts: 618 ✭✭✭Pingi


    Spotted but not caught lost dog out on his own on N11 by RTE. Very small, all white, possibly a terrier, wearing red bandana on neck.Donnybrook/Stillorgan area

    Huge relief and delight all around :)

    I'm hoping for a story like the above... :(

    My cat Oscar has been missing since Friday evening around the Tourlestrane / Rhue / Tubbercurry area in Co. Sligo.

    If anyone is from there or knows anyone down there, can you please keep an eye out and spread the word?

    He's quite distinctive as his jaw is slightly misaligned:

    Hi Jimmy,


    So sorry to hear about Oscar. I went through it myself years back with one of my cats. The thing that brought him home was that I had posters up on lamposts in the area and a neighbour was able to tell me Boots had been hanging around their garden but was limping. He had dislocated his hip and could not get over the wall into mine. My neighbours wouldn't have known him as he only went out supervised but like my cousin he escaped when we had visitors.
    Please also follow the advice on the sticky as these are your best options for getting him home.

    Good luck and you and Oscar will be in my thoughts.

    FOUND CAT DUBLIN 8
    Rialto / Fatima / SCR / Cork St / Dolphin's Barn area.
    Young neutered male. Grey / light brown tabby.

    I don't know if he's starving & lost or just greedy and friendly!
    He started hanging around our back door about 3 weeks ago and is there morning & night. Very friendly and always wants to be up in your arms having cuddles! Obviously someone's pet or used to be.

    Found in Ballycullen/Hunterswood.

    This elderly gent followed Gracie and I home a while ago. Great Dane/Lab cross, coat in beautiful condition but he's very skinny and limping a LOT so has clearly been straying a while. Wearing a red collar but no tags and he's not chipped. Hopefully someone is looking for him. If anyone on Facebook could share the post linked, that would also be great. Thanks.

    One of our cats, Holly escaped while taking her out of her cat carrier at a cattery in the Glenealy, Co. Wicklow area this afternoon, and disappeared into woodlands. She's very nervous, and will take some considerable patience to approach and catch if you do see her. She's a tabby, 13 years old, and microchipped.

    Shot in the dark here, but...

    Has anyone in the Greystones village area found a small black male cat, wearing a red collar, in the last two months? I only found out recently that a cat is missing from the Bellevue Road area for 8 weeks now. He obviously isn't much loved since his owner doesn't seem to have put in the slightest effort to find him! I thought I'd ask here, in case he was found, and delivered somewhere else, and has a nice place to live now - if not I'll take him.

    I am told he is the spitting image of my cat, with a red collar (but he could have lost that). This is my cat, for reference.

    Cat missing from Boroimhe in Swords. In fact, they think she was stolen. A neighbour spotted someone in a blue Ford Fiesta picking her up and putting her in their car.

    She's an indoor cat, but managed to get out somehow. She's only 4 months, and is on medication.

    OSCAR'S BACK!!

    Three months later and all :)

    I'd given up hope of finding him but I hadn't given up on him yet and kept posting about him and following up on all reports of him.

    Got sent some photos on Thursday of a cat that looked THE SPIT of him in our local town. We looked but couldn't find him. My parents mentioned to a woman they know in that estate about him.

    Fast forward to Saturday and that woman spotted Oscar, took him in and rang my folks to come see if it was him. They confirmed it was so he's home, happy and safe!!

    365265.jpg

    And there's a few sulky heads that the boss is back:

    365266.jpg

    Thanks so much to everyone who kept an eye out and spread the word on him. You're all legends and a big part of the reason he's home at last.

    It's from a recent animal fair and there's numerous dogs of questionable origin:

    So happy for you to have your cat home. Could you have a look on lorslostdogs.ie to see if any of the dogs that are missing match up to the ones that was in the fair. Good work jimmy for posting it in

    I've found 2 male collie pups, neither are chipped or have collars. Asked around our local area (limerick - Ballyneety) and they've been spotted straying since last Thursday!

    Trying to organise a foster home but if this doesn't work I'll have to drop them to the dog pound, the local rescue is full.
    My two ladies are totally intolerant of any strange dogs!!
