Buddy – December 2016 – tracked by Tiga
Who needs a guard dog when you have got Buddy the Beagle looking after the Christmas presents!
Buddy was asleep downstairs, baby asleep upstairs, mum upstairs wrapping presents and dad was out.
At close to midnight mum came down to a noise and disturbed an intruder that had broken in through a downstairs window. Mum was confronted and the intruder picked up a kitchen knife – but Buddy the beagle sprung into action and chased the intruder out and off down the road, on and on …barking.
Police were soon on the scene and drone brought into action but no sign of Buddy or intruder.
I was tagged to help in the morning and off we went with Tiga.
Tiga was soon off on a strong scent ( I wont say the route – as CCTV will be checked along this route as it is believed Buddy was chasing intruder).
We soon got to a point where we later learnt of a sighting of Buddy 20 minutes after incident which ties in with the time taken to do Tiga’s route.
Tiga continued but lost the scent – there were many areas where the leaves had been swept/blown by street cleaners which made it very difficult.
Not long after calling it a day – we got several sightings in the area Tiga had tracked.
After giving owners advice of how to guide Buddy home, I was now confident that Buddy would also have the confidence to wander back home.

- I had a ping on my phone at 3.30 in the morning – HE IS HOME!!!
- He was quite scared, tired and hungry.
- What a hero beagle you are Buddy!
