PLEASE HELP Our dog TOBY has been lost.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PLease help us find Toby our springer, he's 4yrs old, liver and white and is very friendly.
He went missing from Brisbane Airport on Wednesday 17th October. He was being delivered in his crate when it fell off the trailer, yes fell off the trailer! and on hitting the ground it split. Toby obviously very frightened has run as fast as he could and was last seen going under the perimeter fence into the mangrove area between the airport and Nudgee beach. This area is approx 22km's in size and we've been looking every day since.
We've contacted all the local vets, RSPCA, police, dog pound, radio and TV stations. We've put posters up everywhere and there's a $1000 reward.
I can't believe this has happened, Floyd our other springer was in a separate crate and thankfully he's OK. Australian air Express who are responsible for the safe transfer of our pets from the plane to us have said " Very sorry, these things happen from time to time and that it is not standard practice to strap down animal crates".
Obviously the driver at the airport was in a hurry and now we're one dog less. Here's a pic of Toby, please help us find him as we're totally devastated.

Re: PLEASE HELP Our dog TOBY has been lost.
Hi guys,
We've had a sighting of a Springer in the Bracken Ridge area near St Josephs Primary School. The lady stated she saw the dog and it looks just like our Toby. This was at about 1030 last night, she tried to get near him but he ran off.
We're making our way up to that area in the next hour so we'll keep you updated. If there's anyone who lives in or around that area could they keep a look out and give us a call.
Mobile 0420417360 or 0420545635 Ken & Diane.
PS we'll be putting up posters round the area with some contact numbers on.
