Please Can You Help?

I imagine that most of you have read last Saturdays Cyprus Today, and were as shocked as i was to read the front page story about the Welsh couple stripping the house of a sick elderly couple? Well, this post is not about what they did, but just an attempt to find the 3 dogs that are missing.
I am asking everyone to keep your eyes open and if you see any of them please call me on 0533 833 1292.
I respectively ask everyone to not discuss these peoples action on this thread (i believe there is one already open) as it is an ongoing investigation, and the police are doing what they can.
So please if you see them, do call me.
The brown one is called Roxy, and has clipped ears. Do not be afraid of her appearance as she is extremely friendly.
The black one is called Barney, he is rather timid, and may need a little coaxing.
The black and white pointer, who has a distinct white stripe down her face, is called Pickles and is also very friendly.
Thank you for your time.

will certainly keep my eyes open for these dogs, what a dreadful thing to happen to them. Is there any further information about what happened to the dogs? Were they just let out or were they taken somewhere and if so where, it might be helpful to try to pinpoint an area.

As you obviously know these animals very well, I would suggest that you go up to the KAR centre and see if you recognise them as having been brought in as strays. If they were taken off the street by the Dog Warden , then they would have been neautered or speyed, had their red tag inserted and taken back to where they were originally picked up. Either way, it is certainly a place to start your enquiries. KAR are always getting dogs in where the staff say "he/she understands English instructions". Good Luck.

Ok, will keep an eye out for them, hopefully they will still be ok. Is anyone back in the house now, as maybe they might return to their home.

We are over in Catalkoy and will certainly be looking out for them and asking others to do the same.
Let's hope that we are not too late for these poor dogs.

Do you have a rough idea when they might have been let loose, as I think I saw them twice in the last part of December. I was out walking Ice and saw these 3 dogs and made a hasty retreat as didn't know them and 2 were big. I remembered them, as there was a large black one and a coloured one, but did not get close enough to see if it had Pickles markings and another one, but it was the 2 big ones that caught my eye. If it was them, then the goodish news is that they have stayed together. If you go past Lapta Belediyesi and keep going up to Baspinar, past my house and further up (before you get to Baspinar) is a goat farm on the right, with a dirt track that leads to I know not where, except it keeps going downhill. I used to walk down there with Ice, and each time I saw them coming up the dirt track from below, which would have been roughly the area that they come from. I walked down there today but didn't see them, but will keep a look out for you.

Rowan....Two of the dogs have not been seen since a week or two of this couple moving in...so it's been quite a long time, and i do realise that this is a long shot.
Sophie, if i go to KAR, i will either leave with a broken heart, or 15 puppies!! But i do believe KAR are aware of these dogs.
Stellastar, they have definitely not returned to their home No one, seriously, no one apart from the people living in the house at the time, has any idea where they might be...it could be the mountains or freaking China...this is what is sooo darned frustrating, and no one is talking!!
As a final kick in the teeth, the husband Thomas Cable, posing as Thomas Touty, is now posting pictures of himself with his dog in Wales....i need to get offline before i really lose the plot!! Here is a link to his profile.

There is also a post in the lost and found section on this site concerning the same dogs, however if you see, or might have seen these dogs, please call me, as the owners are not here in Cyprus at the moment.
The person called Ijarvo who posted this....
''How long ago did they go missing.
There is a tan pitbull with cut ears that turned up in Edremit. A man was looking after it temporarily but had enough dogs of his own and needed to find it a home.
Thanks''
Please get in touch as this matches a description of Roxy. 0533 833 1292 Sam.

Sam,
Sadly the Pitbull I am referring to was found a bit longer than 3 weeks ago, so not sure its the same one.
If you want me to get further info of the one that turned up please advise
Many thanks
Louise

Daisy Dukes, try not to lose the plot, we need your help. Having said that I would have already lost the plot if this had happened to my dogs.
Just a thought, are any of the dogs chipped?
I was at KAR all day on Thursday but did not see any dog which looked like these three, but I did not see all the dogs, there are so may there.
Do we not have clue at all about where they were dumped, I am assuming that is what happened and why was Roxy not dumped with the other two? Is that woman really not saying where they were? How very callous is that.
Sorry, I ask a lot of questions but need to be as clear as I can be about what happened. I have been out this afternoon looking but saw nothing.

Rowan these are my parents dogs, as far as we believe Barney and pickle dissappeared about beginning of dec we don't know why as they was the best! Roxy was tied up out the front of my parents we believe used as a guard dog as was seen about 3 weeks ago there ! They are all spayed and castrated .

How is it that there are so many stray dogs about, yet when you go looking for lost dogs, they can never be found.

I just thinking the same stellastar1.
I went to look to see if Roxy was anywhere near the caravan site yesterday as suggested in an earlier post....no sign.
Later on in the day I was coming back from Lapta and just as I got to the end of the Lapta strip at the Lambousa turning I spot a dog that I thought matched Roxy's photo.
It was out for an evening walk with about 4 other dogs, all wearing collars.
I jumped out of the car and started calling "Roxy, Roxy, good boy, come here" (as you do!!)
Didn't even look at me, too interested on going walkies with his friends.
Followed the pack and one of the other dogs came and sat in front of me and wagged its tail....not the one I thought was Roxy.
So frustrating....but will keep on looking.
