I had visited the Harwood Park Crematorium, Watton Road, Stevenage on the 15th January 2010, taking with me my two dogs. While walking the dogs at the crematorium we could hear the sound of bagpipes from a funeral and also gun shots coming from a field nearby. I feel my Scottish terrier bolted at these noises and ran off. He is an extremely nervous dog and frightened of any loud noises, especially gun fire.
He is a black Scottish terrier ( Scottie) 9 years old, neutered, microchipped, and wearing a broad brown leather collar with gold embroidered dogs on it. The collar has a brass barrel ID tag with telephone numbers on it. Since that day there have been no sightings of him which is unusual as he would try his best to make his way home. He was a rescue dog at one year old and is an extremely nervous dog especially of men and strangers as he was badly abused by first owners. It has taken him much time to trust anyone and he is especially bonded with his owner. He would try his best to get home if he could. The crematorium is about two and a half miles from home. I am desperate to get a sighting so I would know where to look and coax him back home. At the time of his disappearance there was snow on the ground but it was thawing. It would seem that most of the farmers in the area have automatic gun fire in the fields to scare of birds. While this is going on I know my dog will be running away from it as he is so frightened of these noises as are many other dogs. Any sightings please contact owner immediately.
