**PLEASE READ IF YOU (OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW) TRAVELLED ON THE A9 (BETWEEN DUNBLANE AND PERTH) BETWEEN MON 24th FEB AT 4:15pm AND TUES 9:40am**



Dog Missing. Suspicious Circumstances



This is Daisy. Her and her mum, Tia, went missing from Auchterarder, Perthshire on Mon 24th Feb. At 4:15pm that day, a definite sighting of both dogs was made. They were playing very close to the Northbound carriageway of the A9 that runs from Dunblane to Perth.



Despite many people keeping an eye out for the dogs, there were no more sightings.



On Tuesday at 9:41am, Tia's body was found close to the Duchally estate, which is over an hours walk away.



The Missing Pets search team (who have over 13 years experience searching for pets) found the placement and conditions surrounding Tia's body to be suspicious. And they strongly believe that Tia died elsewhere and was moved to that location.



In the Duchally area, there are many pregnant ewes who are monitored day and night. No disturbance was reported making it unlikely that dogs were in the area. Also, Daisy and Tia were inseparable. Their family are adamant that, even though Tia had passed away, Daisy would not have left her side.



Daisy is still missing. Whoever hurt Tia may have crucial information on the whereabouts of Daisy.



If you were driving along this stretch of road between those hours, do you have a dash cam? Did you notice anything suspicious?



If you have any information at all then please let the Missing Pets, Perth and Kinross team know.

If you want to report anonymously then create a fake email and message help@missingpetspk.org.uk or set your phone to withheld number and phone 03003650099.

If you have Daisy or know someone who does, hand her into your closest vet. Tell them that you found her wandering around. You don't have to give the vets any of your details.

Daisy's family are distraught and desperate to know what has happened to her, whether good or bad. If you have any information, please do the right thing and let someone know.

If something happened to Tia on the A9 then the person responsible may live anywhere. So please share far and wide.



Daisy is a red working cocker spaniel with a white chest and a small white patch on her nose. She was wearing a green collar at the time of her disappearance.

Natives were aware of how important it was to prevent inbreeding to keep their dogs healthy. In order to prevent this, the tribes would introduce new blood from other tribe's dogs which accounted for the many types of dogs that were often portrayed in history books.
The northern tribes developed a dog with more of a wolf like appearance while in the western regions the smaller Plains dog was developed. These dogs were very intelligent and versatile as they were expected to fill many roles in the village. In some tribes, dogs pulled a travois carrying the nomadic family’s belongings as they followed their food supply. Dogs were used to hunt for food and as faithful and protective watch dogs over the village. They were even reliable as “babysitters” for the children and elderly when the women were gathering roots, berries and herbs. In certain tribes ,some of the dogs even played important roles in the tribes’ religious ceremonies.
Scientists say the "black wolves" are actually the earliest Native dogs. The black fur of some North American wolves is the result of long-ago dalliances with domestic dogs, probably the companions of the earliest Natives.

It’s really simple, dogs are not children and we can’t explain to them that the visitors or new smells, noises, sights are fun.

When people come round to visit just put your dog into his own space, all dogs deserve to have a place to retreat to they won’t be hassled. It’s lovely to think that everyone will love your dog as much as you do but it’s really not necessary and the world doesn’t work the way you think it does.
Excited jumping up is over stimulation and bad for your dog’s physical health.
So is shaking, growling, barking.

You don’t have time to sort this now (but get in touch for working on this all behaviour can be changed) as it takes weeks-months to resocialise an un-calibrated dog.

Home-reared pups available. Photos to follow.

Deely has a litter of Kangal pups - 7 females, 3 males - currently available. They will be ready to go in February.

Kangals are a rare, pastoral care breed and work as livestock guardians, not as herders, but as carers, and can divert against potential predation and give protection for lambs, calves, alpacas, goats, poultry, pigs, whatever their given task.
They are an intelligent breed, with a sense of purpose, and need a job to do.

They are also great human companions and this is something that is often not focussed on in the world of media. They make great pals and bond with the family.

Further to this, with good quality training and socialisation they will adapt readily to showing, trailing, agility, canicross, search and rescue, pets as therapy and other activities they enjoy doing, especially sleeping.

For further information please contact Deely, who has lived with her Kangals and Tibetan Mastiffs since 2004, as well as the Bernese Mountain Dogs, first one of these was in 1987, along with Highland ponies, Shetland sheep, pigs and goats.
