Dog owner gets reunited with lost pet thanks to appeal in The Courier

A devastated dog owner’s heartbreak turned to joy after she was reunited with her precious pooch thanks to an appeal in The Courier.

Jack Russell cross Millie went missing during a walk with Perthshire woman Ray Brass, who was holidaying in Elie.

Ms Brass searched for two days for Millie but could not find her. As a result, she was forced to return home to Abernethy without her beloved four-legged friend.

Recalling how the two became separated, she said: “I was walking with Millie on Kincraig Cliffs at Elie when I lost her after she chased deer down the cliff.

“I searched for two days for her and was broken-hearted having to come home without her.”

Fortunately Millie was found almost six miles from where she went missing, wandering along the coastal road near Lower Largo, by local woman Karen Allan.

Mrs Allan then contacted The Courier to appeal for her owner to come forward.

An overjoyed Ms Brass was contacted by friends who saw the article and she was later reunited with Millie.

“I cannot thank the Allan family enough for returning my wee dog,” she said.

“I would also like to thank The Courier for their help in bringing us back together.”
