Rail campaign in search for dog

Diane Cousins' car A couple who re-mortgaged their home for £40,000 to help find a lost dog are now widening their search by handing out flyers at London's train stations.

Natasha the tan-coloured adult labrador cross went missing from her Bromley home 12 months ago.

Owner Diane Cousins said:"My love for this dog is so great I can't turn this page in my life and move on."

The 55-year-old hired a pet detective and sold her wedding and engagement rings to fund the search.

"I haven't had a life since she's gone missing, I've given up everything to track her down"

She also sold her mother's antique jewellery, covered her car with pictures of her dog and created a website to help track her down.

"I haven't had a life since she's gone missing, I've given up everything to track her down", she said.

In the latest attempt to find her pet Mrs Cousins will be handing out flyers at mainline train stations including Waterloo and Charing Cross.

"People might think I'm raving mad but I hope people will support me and realise the pain I am suffering."

Mrs Cousins says she is unable to pay for a full repair to a burst water tank which has flooded her house because she has remortgaged to raise the money for a £40,000 reward for anyone finding the dog.

She still spends her weekends driving around the Bromley area looking for Natasha.

Anyone with information can contact Mrs Cousins on 02086982713.
