Happy ending in hunt for missing spaniel Poppy
Poppy, the cocker spaniel missing in the Forest of Dean since last Thursday, has been found.
The 12-year-old mutt escaped from a garden in Cinderford and led those looking for her on a merry dance.
Her owner Wendy Potter, who lives in Wigan and left Poppy with Forest dog behaviour specialist Jane Tovey while she was on holiday, said she was "delighted" to have her companion back.
She was found by Forestry Commission workers tangled in a barbed wire fence but was unharmed, apart from being a little dehydrated.

“This is horrifying. It's pure luck that the story had a happy outcome. If you read the information carefully, it is clear that the dog's owner left her with a dog behaviour specialist, who then allowed her to escape! Why would a dog behaviour specialist not understand that the dog would try to escape and look for her owner? If that were my dog, I'd be spitting mad; she could have been run over, stolen or even died of dehydration while attached to the barbed wire.”
