The owner of a dog missing in Bushy Park is appealing for help in finding her beloved pet.

Cocker spaniel Margo, who is nearly three years old, went missing on October 13 after chasing a group of deer in the park, and owner Mandy Pitcher is offering a reward for information leading to her return.

Ms Pitcher, who has three children aged 13, 16 and 19, said Margo was part of the family and it was very out of character for her to run away.

She said: "She’s just a mad, typical spaniel, very friendly and curious but she never bothers the deer normally and will stay very close to me.

"We’ve searched every inch of the park for her."

The 47-year-old stylist and makeup artist, who is putting up posters of Margo around the area, was worried someone may have taken her dog.

Margo is a blue roan with a white mark on her head. She is relatively small for a spaniel and was wearing a green-brown collar when last seen.

Call Ms Pitcher on 07545 261205 with any information.
