I can understand your way of thinking to a degree, but honestly, they are hardier than they look!
They also run like the wind!
All your suggestions have been done already & she isn't likely to approach strangers anyway,
I was just really looking for some help with gundogs to see if there was any way we could find her,
the area she is in is vast forestry & scrubland that people have no way of getting through to search.
Do you know of anybody in the area that would help with their dogs please?
Thank you...Cheryl.
