A very worried dog owner is appealing for help to find their beloved Labrador who went missing while out on a walk on the Curragh yesterday.

The dog is described as being a very friendly male black Labroador and he is wearing a red collar, and he answers to the name 'Phoenix.'

The dog's worried owner said: "He went missing on the part of the Curragh near the firing range, on the road between the Centra shop and Brownstown Crossroads, on the right when you're coming from Brownstown, in on the flat grass area on the walkway. I'm sure he's in the vicinity there somewhere. I let the Curragh camp know in the office beside the Church and gave them my details. I also let the Animal foundation in Kildare town know and left them my details. Please if anyone see's him or know where he's gone, please retrieve him for me. I desperately want him back, he's my dog."

Anyone who may have seen Phoenix is asked to contact his owner on 0833440000.
