DOG FOUND EIGHT MILES FROM WHERE SHE WENT MISSING
A couple from Shropshire have thanked people for their help in reuniting them with their missing dog.
Harriet Jones and her partner Luke Doran were abroad when their two-year-old cockapoo Honey went missing while being cared for by his parents.
She said Honey ran off after being scared by other dogs during a walk on 8 June near Kidderminster.
Thankfully the dog was found in bushes in Hagley a fortnight later, about eight miles away from where she had initially gone missing.
Ms Jones said she and Mr Doran flew back on the next available flight when they found out what had happened.
There were a few sightings, she said, but they were not reunited with Honey until 15 June.
"We tried to be really practical, obviously we were very, very scared, but we had to try and be practical and get the word out there," she said.
"We put it all over social media, we put literally hundreds of posters up around the area."

Ms Jones said there were a few times where she had had "dark thoughts", but that she had remained mostly positive about finding the dog.
Honey is unharmed, she said, and has been checked over by a vet.
She had lost a bit of weight, but was acting normally and playing with the couple's other dog, Ms Jones added.
