Attention all those with missing dogs!

Donn Novice Feb 10, 2004, 6:25 PM Views: 8705 Attention all those with missing dogs! Hello fellow sufferers, If you like me, are still missing your dog - we need to get together and do something.I have spoken to the newspapers as well as radio stations about doing stories and interviews about the trauma and anguish of having a pet missing and the level of responsibility of the average Malaysian who finds a missing dog. I will also be writing an article for the Malaysian National Animal Welfare organisation as well as speking at their next gathering about this as well as trying to educate people on the right thing to do when they find a dog/cat that is not theirs. Meanwhile, Infozone on Astro radio has also agreed to mention the missing dogs issue if we can prove that there are many and send all our notices to SPCA - then SPCA has to issue an official letter stating there are many people missing dogs and those who have found are encouraged to call SPCA to check. Please fax all your notices to SPCA and let me know so I can follow-up with them. Could all you you who are still missing dogs, please post details here on this thread so i can compile and keep you all updated and let you know about any publicity I can get to heighten awareness on this and hopefully help get all our pets back home. Meanwhile, we still pray and pray and pray. Donn

shlee Doggyman Feb 10, 2004, 7:52 PM Views: 8696 Re: [Donn] Attention all those with missing dogs! Hi Donna, It is highly appreciated of what you are trying to do now for our missing dogs. I truly wish that your effort is workable and we could find our furkid back as soon as possible. Below is the detail about my MiMi: Name: MiMi. Sex: Female. Breed: Mixed Terrier. Age: 1 Year. Color: Golden Brown. Fur: Short & Curly. Size: Very Small, about 10kg only. Nose Color: Brown. Date of Missing: 17/11/03. Place of Missing: Jalan Nuri, Bandar Puchong Jaya. My MiMi is actually being stolen, not walked away by herself. She doesn't dare to go out even i let the gate opened. In fact, the dog kidnap case is very serious in Puchong area. I heard a lot of the similar cases happened in this area, but seldom of us have made a police report, because we know that our M'sia police won't take any action for dogs. Some of the pet shops also seem quite suspicious for selling stolen dogs! Please let me know if you need my help. I'm willing to do whatever i can. I can be reached at 016-2179739. And my email add is hslee@digi.com.my I really miss my MiMi. Let's hope we can reunite with our furkids very soon later by this year. *****Pls help to look for my MiMi (refer to my avatar for her pic)***** *****MiMi, where are you now? I miss you.....*****

MaryLim Novice Feb 12, 2004, 5:30 PM Views: 8623 Re: [Donn] Attention all those with missing dogs! i lost my miniature schnauzer yesterday, 11/2/04, probably in the morning, in Taman Billion Cheras, KL. He was wearing a orange coloured t-shirt. However, the t-shirt was thrown back into my house while my puppy was missing. i conclude that it must have been stolen. below are the details:- Breed: Miniature Schnauzer/ Age: 3 months plus/ Sex: Dog/ Colour: Salt & Pepper/ Behaviour Problem: Running in circles, non-stop, when left alone. MKA registered. Microchipped. please help~

shlee Doggyman Feb 12, 2004, 5:37 PM Views: 8621 Re: [MaryLim] Attention all those with missing dogs! I'm sorry to hear your lost. No doubt that your dog has been stolen. Better put up your flyers around as soon as possible. Wish you good luck. I wish i can find my MiMi back soon also. She is also being stolen 2 months ago. *****Pls help to look for my MiMi (refer to my avatar for her pic)***** *****MiMi, where are you now? I miss you.....*****

MaryLim Novice Feb 12, 2004, 5:50 PM Views: 8620 Re: [shlee] Attention all those with missing dogs! thanks for your concern. i'll work on the flyers now. this is such a trauma for me that i'm completely lost now, don't know what to do next. whisky and i are so attached, or rather too attached, to each other. we spent lots of hours together everyday, and he needs me to coax him to bed every night. now that he suddenly vanish into thin air, taking all my laughter with him, i just can't take it... what else can be done besides the flyers? Any help of having him registered with MKA and microchipped?

Donn Novice Feb 12, 2004, 7:11 PM Views: 8615 Re: [eli] Attention all those with missing dogs! Hi Eli, It is SO wonderful that you found your dog after 9 weeks! Tell us what you did and how you found her/him. This is the kind of stuff I need to compile to launch a series of articles or forum discussions on dealing with missing dogs and what to do when one finds a missing dog. I am so happy for you! Donn

Donn Novice Feb 12, 2004, 7:28 PM Views: 8614 Re: [MaryLim] Attention all those with missing dogs! Hi Mary, Take heart - many of us have been traumatised and are suffering.That's why i will not let this stolen dogs issue go. I am still pestering The Star and a radio station to do a story on people like us who's hearts have literally been ripped out by this happening. You need to send flyers to all the pet shops and vet clinics in your area and bordering your area. Go see the municipal council (health/Vector Division) of MPSJ,MPPJ or DBKL and give them your flyers too with the picture of your dog. Your flyer should state the date the dog went missing, description of the dog, distinguising items such as collar colour, license number, and your telephone number. DO NOT ever give the dog's name and do not give your name - prank callers feel dumb if they have to ask your name and this is a deterrent. A genuine caller will call anyway. If the dog is old - state that - there is less chance people will keep the dog if they know it is old. Use your flyers as mail drops as well. Keep me posted and lets all keep each other in our daily prayers for our pets well being until they return to us. People like Eli who was reunited with the pet after 9 weeks give us all hope. I am also thinking that putting the flyers on car windshields at the nearest hypermarket to your house may be a good idea - I may do that myself this weekend - lost of people and a faster way than walking around houses - plus if it's a case where the dog is stolen, you don't know whee it may end up so the wider the reach the better. If we have to let the WHOLE of Malaysia know, lets do it! Donn

shlee Doggyman Feb 17, 2004, 5:23 PM Views: 8559 Re: [mackey] Attention all those with missing dogs! Any special identification of your doggie? Actually, one of my friend, he is my neighbour also. He has rescured a stray dog, which is near to his factory at Puchong about few months ago. The dog looks quite similar to yours. But i'm not really sure. When is ur dog missing? But the dog is totally "botak" when being found. But after well taken care by my friend, he got a lot of fur now, like ur doggie. *****Pls help to look for my MiMi (refer to my avatar for her pic)***** *****MiMi, where are you now?

Ohh my i lost my dog around early October at Ampang, he is very cheerfull likes to jump alot, the moment you call his name the ears will go up & he will start jumping, his name is mackey.he knows how to give five, shake hands, he is around 4 years plus now, he was wearing a red colar with friskies label on it. When did your friend found the dog ? is the dog beige in colour also, ahh one more think he lost one of his front tooth & he likes to eat cheese. i guess i'm explainning alot about him. i just miss my mackey alot, wish i could get him back. you know what i tried putting up posters around my place & the nearby shops also at the 7-Eleven most of it was torn off.he was with me since he was a baby, he was a present from my uncle.

shlee Doggyman Feb 17, 2004, 6:24 PM Views: 8551 Re: [mackey] Attention all those with missing dogs! My friend found the dog from a small industries area in Puchong. He was totally botak at that time when being found. Do u think it is possible the dog is yours? What is ur dog breed? Btw, the dog has been found quite sometimes ago. Let's me check with my friend. I understand how u feel coz i'm suffering the same here. One of my lovely doggie is stolen 3 mths ago. Today is exactly 3 mths!!!!! Sigh.....how i wish i could reunite with her. I really miss her.....my little baby! U know what, she is born at my house. From that day onwards, we are very attached to each other..... How did ur dog go missing? Walk away or being stolen as well? *****Pls help to look for my MiMi (refer to my avatar for her pic)***** *****MiMi, where are you now? I miss you.....*****

mackey Novice Feb 17, 2004, 6:50 PM Views: 8550 Re: [shlee] Attention all those with missing dogs! Actually i went to work on that day & he was at home since it was raining so i locked him in the house, accroding to my neighbour she said that he was scratching the doors & he manage to open the door, he squeesed himself out the grill & ran, since she was malay so she couldn't stop him, she quickly called me & i rush back home, i search for him everywhere, then i ask a few kids that was playing they said thay saw him at the playground he was wondering around it seems, i think some one took him. the next day i put up posters but some one tore it. i think he is a mix something like yours but with black nose but longer hair, his hair always covers his eyes, when i'm at home i will tie his hair. i'm really sorry about your dog, i know how you feel, its really depressing. thanks for your help lee, i'll pass you his clearer picture tomorow. i really hope that dog is mine.

Ok, send more clearer pic to me tomorrow at hslee@digi.com.my U should be happy if the dog is yours, becoz he is well taken care by my friend now. But the problem is my friend found him at Puchong, but ur dog is lost at Ampang..... Sigh, it has been exactly 3 mths already, but i still couldn't find my MiMi back. How i wish someone can come across her and inform me immediately. It's really hurt to lose our furkid. For me, MiMi is exactly my own baby. I really miss her..... Anyway, don't lose hope.

So the chance is still out there. *****Pls help to look for my MiMi (refer to my avatar for her pic)***** *****MiMi, where are you now? I miss you.....*****

shlee Doggyman Feb 20, 2004, 12:58 AM Views: 8498 Re: [Donn] Attention all those with missing dogs! Hi Donna, I have just read your article in The Star. Very touched. Thanks for writing such a good article and expressing our real feeling. I'm sufferring exactly the same here. I also pray very hard everyday for my MiMi. Just never forget every moment we have been together. Everything is still very fresh in my mind even though MiMi is already missing for 3 months. After you have collected so many info. Just wondering here do you able to get any useful info or syndicate to recover our stolen dogs? Just would like to try out all the possibility to get back my MiMi. I want to know what else i should do but haven't done yet. Mind to share with me? Besides the artical in The Star, what else are you going to do to find your Colt? The bond between me and my MiMi is very strong although we have been together for 10 months only. She is my little baby. As what you mentioned, taking our lovely baby away is taking our heart with them at the same time. *****Pls help to look for my MiMi (refer to my avatar for her pic)***** *****MiMi, where are you now?

Donn Novice Feb 21, 2004, 12:10 AM Views: 3032 Re: [kesuke] Attention all those with missing dogs! Peter Hi all my fellow dog lover friends, Yes - I am glad I have made some progress - I have so much to share with you all. There is so much we all need to do to protect our children. I have found people who have actually SEEN the areas where pedigree dogs - 70-80 of them all kept in one fenced up area are taken after they are stolen.There is a place near Tanjung Rambutan where at night a boat takes the dogs to Thailand if they are not bought locally. The syndicate operates up to Johor, Seremban, Ipoh. I have to urge all of you who are missing dogs to please make a police report - even if it was one or two months ago - MAKE a report now.The police do not think missing/stolen dogs is high priority, but this will take time and work and I now have a an ex-cop who is also a dog lover who has gone through finding his stolen dogs and getting them back, so he is helping me, so the police have to listen.This is the time for all of you to make a noise - so please go to the station in your area this evening and make your report. I will keep you all posted from here on. Also - check out this email I found on a yahoo group about dog and cat meat being sold at the Pudu market - can someone here please check this out and verify this and let the group know? Thanks - Donna. From a yahoo group - Ahyo this is good luck. You gave it to paws! There is an alternative next time. You can sell it at the Pudu Market. There is a stall that sells their meat. Also I hear they are looking for black dog meat male. I think it better to sell it to them as PAWS will be putting it to sleep any way, so for being a good soul you can get paid. Not only that it will get rid of the POO problem. Cats Rm 9.00 Kittens 3.00 Dogs Rm20.00 Puppies Rm 10.00 Black Dogs Rm50.00 Bitches Not wanted

shlee Doggyman Feb 21, 2004, 12:44 AM Views: 3029 Re: [Donn] Attention all those with missing dogs! Hi Donna, Do you mind to share with me how did the ex-cop able to recover his stolen dog? Did you make a police report already? How did the police react to you? My MiMi is being stolen for 3 mths already, i don't know whether they will accept my case or not. Huh? Tanjung Rambutan? How can i go there to check.....so far. I really wish my MiMi is not there or has been sent to Thailand. For what purpose? I used to look around my MiMi at Pudu Market (is it the one at Jln Pasar?). I didn't see anybody is selling cat or dog meat. I have asked around, they said they only saw some people is selling mongrel puppy once a while. They never saw any pure breed dog is on sale. I think this possibility is very low. Donna, pls share with me, what should i do now? How is the ex-cop helping you now? Pls! Thanks. *****Pls help to look for my MiMi (refer to my avatar for her pic)***** *****MiMi, where are you now? I miss you.....***** (This post was edited by shlee on Feb 21, 2004, 12:52 AM)

hunter Ultra ALPHA Feb 23, 2004, 8:54 AM Views: 3008 Re: [Donn] Attention all those with missing dogs! hi donn sincerely hope you find Colt back coz you both deserve each other. other than the Star and NST, did you had articles published in chinese newspapers as well? if you hadn't do consider about it coz he might be in a chinese educated family. perhaps you should consider offering reward as well? might be a good way to lure ppl to return colt back. and a color photo will do good for reference, coz i have no idea whether colt is a dark brown/beige/white retriever from that B & W photo. good luck finding him. think he's easy to recognize from the white markings on his face. i'll keep an eye for u.

Mi|O^ New User Feb 29, 2004, 10:14 AM Views: 2979 Re: [Donn] Attention all those with missing dogs! Hello Donna! its Laura here, called you up a few days ago. And hello everyone.After reading Donna's article in the papers,i feel that people like us should really get together and take good actions because with great man-power comes great results. I lost my dog 1 year & 2months ago on January 1st 2003.It was the saddest time of my life, i felt exactly the same way as Donna felt. if you could recall, it was raining heavilly on that day, usually,during such weather, she would come to me and seek refuge under my arms.Sadly, i wasn't at home that day and i believe she sat out to find for me.it was the day i received my PMR results...i prayed and asked god,if he could return my dear Barbie and take away all my 6 A's.Barbie is not only a pet to me, but my sister whom i have loved so much for 7 long years.It was like loosing a big part of my heart.We received many phone calls about her whereabouts,she was so near, yet so far.My mum & I kept searching for her continuously for 3 months...i still think she could be around the neighbourhood,but its not that easy to find for such a small dog. I pray each day, that god would keep her safe and warm...that someone would love her and understand her...that one sweet day, i would see her again.If you so happended to have seen a miniature border collie around your neighbourhood before,...please inform me. Name answers to : Barbie Breed : Miniature Border Collie (Black & white)She is not a common breed Sex : Female ( picture will be updated soon ) People... i've done a great mistake and i hope all you dog owners out there wouldn't make the same mistake. PLease do fence your gates,because by doing this, wheter your dog decides to run away, go out to explore the world or is a sight for dog snatchers...fencing your gates will prevent all these.And give your dog a collar with YOUR details on it so that whoever who finds your dog will get to contact you. Donna, your actions have brought many of us forward...my mum asks if you could do the same (advertise in the papers) for our lost dog...do contact me if you could...thanks alot!

Donn Novice Mar 1, 2004, 7:51 PM Views: 2967 Re: [Mi|O^] Attention all those with missing dogs! Hi Laura and all my fellow sufferers, Education, education, education! With all the talk about dogs and the MPSJ ruling, this is really the time to get up and do something. Laura is right - we need to have more voices speaking up for them. There are some other rules which I have been stressing here - 1. Make a police report - Stolen dogs are BIG business here. We want to police to know we know and that we take it seriously. If they only get one report in 3 months, they will never take it seriously. 2.Do not offer rewards - it's a long road but as long as owners send a message that their dogs are a commodity worth money, people will see them that way. I know how desperate we are for our pets, but be smart and appeal to the conscience as a first step - not financial reward. 3. Yes all us owners need to be more responsible - I think we all feel guilty cos we did or did not do something that would have prevented our dogs from going missing/getting stolen. There is a lot people can do and there are groups getting together to do this. I have suggested keeping in touch with the SPCA and MNAWF, do volunteer work, etc. It's not a problem we can solve overnight but we have to start here.

erickoh33 Novice Mar 1, 2004, 10:10 PM Views: 2964 Re: [Donn] Attention all those with missing dogs! thank you so much for bringing up this!!! i also have just lost 2 dogs-jack russell terrier and labrador..both of them are males..they ran out from house and we suspect that they wont be going far from here..maybe those people who are staying here has keep them..i miss them so much..we have actually giving out flyers in our are, section 16, pj behind eastin hotel but there is no reply yet so far..we also have been driving around our neighborhood to check out!! i really hope that we can take action or educate those people who has taken others peoples' dog as their pet!!

Donn Novice Mar 1, 2004, 10:26 PM Views: 2963 Re: [erickoh33] Attention all those with missing dogs! HI Eric, When did this happen? How old are they? I need to tell you all that sometimes even though it is because of our own carelessness and negligence our dogs run out - they can still be stolen after - either by the syndicates or by other people who find a pedigree and keep them quietly. Either way, a police report will help in the instant you ever come across your dog again.For those of you who do not know, if you /your parents have bought home insurance for the building - some insurance companies also cover the loss of a pedigree pet by theft or death (you need to produce Pedigree cert, police report or death notice) to a varying degree of a couple of hundred. The point is we need to make people take our pets seriously - whether they are pet lovers or not. Would anyone dream of keeping someone's kid then selling it back to the parents? No right? In Australia, NZ, the States - you can leave your pet tied to a pole and go shop or buy yr books and rent your videos and no one would dream of unleashing and taking it away. Another thing we cannot deny is that the price of Pedigee dogs at pet shops are exorbitant. This is also another reason people keep a pedigree or resell it, or steal them. So stop buying from pet shops - there are other ways to get pedigree dogs - or if you just want a pet for love and to love you back, always, always check PAWS, SPCA, the pounds first. Small steps...but very necessary in the long run to start changing things...maybe all of us with missing/stolen dogs should meet and talk.

I've truly learn alot fm ur articles. ya, lot's of desparate owners do offer rewards "with NO questions asked" as long as their beloved comes back 2 them. Sigh.....can't blame them but this will really caused more dogs "kidnap & ransom" case. D most disgusted part is that cops dun think dognapping cases r no big deal. This really pisses me off. They r allowing dognappers 2 laugh all d way 2 d bank by doin dirty n inhumane "jobs". lastly, thx thx n thx again 4 ur lovely articles, hope 4 d best 4 u n take care.

If at least, this whole incident teaches me and a few other people lessons, then in Colt's name, good has been done perhaps for toher dogs or other pets. Every experience must have a lesson and the more teachings we can all get out of this, the more good we could do for our pets. We all know we have to learn to be more responsible, less careless, more attentive, take less for granted, be more patient with them, give them more time, more hugs, more love, more pats, take them out, walk them, feed them properly, do research, learn about them and their needs and wants, know their body language, make sure they are healthy, allow them to grow older well...and it all goes on...but it's what every caring responsible pet owner should know and do because unlike kids that ultimately grow up and gain more independance, our pets are forever our helpless babies, depending on us till the day they die.

Hi all, i recently lost a dog and i found him after praying very hard. he came back to the house. i can understand how miserable it feels for losing a dog. i keep all my dogs inside the house and am only allow them to go out from the house under supervision. this is the safest measure to keep away from kipnapper. but i would think some of the missing cases is not due to kipnapper but negligence. during the course of me finding my lost dog, i came across of some nice breed wondering around and lost. fyi, all my dogs are adopted from street and they r all mongrel. keeping them inside the house is the only way to make sure they dont end up miserable in the street and starve to death or any other mishaps. perhaps u can try to find ur lost dog at places like Paws or spca. u never know. i seriously doubt that ppl would find a dog having much commercial value esp if they r bigger than a puppy. (it may sound offending for those who lost thier beloved dogs)

Hi ppl, Do check out at the Aie Panas Shelter, I saw a mini spinzher(brown) this morning when I m sending the cat behind my hoyse for spaying. There was a mongrel just gave birth with 7 white puppies. Their eyes still close, and they r all wet bcos of the man there washing the cage, just splash the water in only. And also some spitzs. Anybody lost their dog may go there and hav a look. That ms look like yuenyuen's dogs', I means the color. (This post was edited by pei02 on May 16, 2004, 8:55 PM)

Hi, Thanks for alerting me.In fact, the SPCA called me on Friday and we were all SO hopeful cos this GR was also male, also found in Subang....I drove like a maniac there - crying and praying all the way, but unfortunately, it was not Colt.

Donn Novice May 17, 2004, 7:34 PM Views: 1843 Re: [icezcream] Attention all those with missing dogs! Thank you....it's amazing how the anticipation and hope opened up such a flood of emotion again, and then the let down - so I cried all the way driving back too.It would have been so wonderful to have my world turned right-side-up again, instead of this pain and void I am enduring daily. I was so upset the whole weekend and even now.It's really hard to be hopeful. Thanks through for your help and words, it helps when I know there are other like minded people and I really appreciate your kind encouragement. Someone at the SPCA also told me that they found a Dalmation - did you see? Donn
