There has been a 99.9% sure sighting of Angel on the M1 - around Junctions 37 to 40 If anyone is travelling around that are - Barnsley/Wakefield etc and by any chance sees her can you contact me immediately on 07984663721
Dawn is out searching with about 50 volunteers but it's a big a\rea and lots of side roads.  Any help very gratefully received.
Thank you

No, not a sign of her anywhere- please everyone keep looking - that's 15 days now.  Dawn left her sitting in front of the car after their walk, went to the boot to put the other two dogs in, went back to take Angel for her usual half hour training and she had disappeared.  Dawn turned round and saw a white van heading to Barnsley.  There was apparently a sighting on the M1 but it turned out to be a boxer.

Please keep looking fro Angel - that's 5 weeks now.  We think she my have been stolen to order as she is not only a Show Champion but also a Trial winner.  She has been spayed so not able to be bred from, whoever has her would be better taking the £3000 reward money and buying a bitch pup of their own and paying for training. £100 per week for boarding training, £30 per 1.5 hours training handler and dog -  that's more than 6 months of boarding training and a helluva a lot of one to one!

Yes, she's been on a few local stations, Good Morning, Calendar, as well as Daybreak. Twitter too, and Linkdin.  Many newspapers. Most gamekeepers in the UK, NOBS, PUBS, all HPR clubs. All top Trainers know of her. 

Someone somewhere is hiding her thinking the heat will go off, but it won't.  Angel has an army looking for her.  Dawn will NEVER give up. She has now re-mortgaged her and Dominic's house and the reward for Angel's safe return is £10,000

£10,000 is alot of reward money. no wonder so many dogs get stolen if the stakes are high.

They aren't usually - Dawn has her mission.   £500 or £1000 is more normal

Still missing, Jackie - she has her own Facebook page and website - just look for find missing angel.  We're in the process of translating the poster into as many different languages as possible - friends of mine have given me the Greek, French, Italian, Norwegian, and German versions,. and others have done Polish, Croatian, and Swedish

With all that and the high reward I wonder if she isnt now still alive  :(

My thoughts too, Jackie, I think as soon as her captors knew she had been spayed her value would plummet.  But I can't say that to Dawn, it would break her heart.
