Fascinating Aida musical show actress Dillie Keane, right, is appealing for help to find her beloved Jack Russell dog Chips.

The Stratton Audley-based singer/songwriter had been in London rehearsing, and her partner was is in Ireland when the 12-year-old dog went missing on Friday, September 27.

The dog, who was being looked after by a sitter, is described as “battered looking”, white with brown markings to her head, has a red collar, but wasn’t microchipped.

Ms Keane said: “She’s utterly adorable with people, ferocious towards anything with four legs.

“We think it most likely she was picked up, as she is a friendly little dog. Anyhow, we’re utterly desperate as it’s been ten days.”

Anyone with information should call The Red Lion pub, in Stratton Audley, on 01869 277225.
