    Were they missing when the ferry docked or did they escape when the ferry docked? I'll keep an eye out for them as I'm not too far from the ferry terminal.
    You you want me to go over and look for them now or is it just a general notice?

    They were missing when they docked... :( If you could have a look around for them it would be much appreciated. The owners are heartbroken and fear they have gone overboard or stolen.

    Would you consider getting on to 96FM or RedFM and see if they would include it on the news or something considering the circumstances and all that, its certainly an unusual situation and I'm sure they might help out if you plead that the dogs belong to people over here on holidays.

    I think dogslost.co.uk are already working on it. I have been in contact with Galway FM and they agreed to broadcast it tomorrow afternoon just in case the dogs were brought to the West.

    Thanks!

    I'd say try Cork too because its more likely to find them around here if they jumped ship or went overboard they might have swam ashore...its worth a shot anyway.
