An owner has put out a plea for help in finding her missing dog which she describes as her "little girl."

Jayne Stoneley's dog, Dolly, went missing on January, Thursday 11, after she ran away during a walk close to her home in Grays.

The white Cavapoo has been spotted running across the Ikea car park near Lakeside and was last seen as far as the M25.

A number of attempts have been made to catch Dolly, but she has evaded capture and scampered away each time.

Jayne, 42, has advised people to call her if they spot Dolly and avoid chasing her.

Jayne has been overwhelmed by the support that she has had.

She said: "The sense of community has been amazing.

"The post on facebook has been shared over 14,000 times and received more than 1.2k comments in 3 days, with several people going around Thurrock posting flyers and raising awareness, but Dolly still hasn’t been found."

If you see Dolly, you can contact Jayne on 07583 065224. You can also follow the Facebook group to find her here.
