Therapy dog missing in Highlands for two weeks as owners continue 'relentless search'
Golden Retriever Louie is trained to alert the family when teen Ellie Lynn is about to have an epileptic seizure. The family of a support dog missing for two weeks has opened up on the 'relentless search' they've carried out for their beloved pet. Louie the two-year-old Golden Retriever is trained to let the family of teenager Elie Lynn know when she is about to have an epileptic seizure. Desperate, the family have left dirty clothing and food around the area to try to lure their pup to safety. The pooch is now much more than a help for the 17-year-old, becoming "a huge part" of the youngster's family, leaving them heartbroken at his absence. He has been missing since Monday, May 26, when he slipped free from his choker while walking up Glen Nevis, in Fort William. The family say they are absolutely desperate to bring him home. Despite regularly searching for him in the 16 days since he vanished, Louie is still missing. The family were given hope after hearing barking up the Glen on Sunday, June 8. Owner Louise Manson told the Record today: "It's been an absolute struggle. My 12-year-old daughter, Lara, has been out searching relentlessly with me. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

" Ellie has found the two weeks so hard, it would give her security and her companion back. Home isn't home without him, it would mean the absolute world for him to come home for all of us." A Facebook group, called Official search page for finding Louie, was set up to try and help track him down, with members of the public helping in the searches. Louise wrote on Monday: "Update, more barking has been heard yesterday, but it could be coming from anywhere. Which is a positive. We have been given other positive information which indicates he's 100% alive yesterday. "We were out again last night at steall falls until late. Clothes out, food has been left and a wildlife camera. In the hope we can narrow down his location and get him home. "We think with the falls being so busy, he's scared and in hiding during the day. We have been told, shouting his name may make him want to hide further away. So its a case of just seeing where he is and trying to tempt him. "We are confident we will get him home…it's just taking longer than hoped. Again thank you for help, messaging, searching and all your kind words. Its all helping so much at this time." Posting on the group previously, she wrote: "Just putting it out there. On Monday the 26th of May, if anyone was up Glen Nevis and steall falls. "Has anyone has taken Louie, out of good will thinking he was abandoned, a stray or injured or he followed you on a walk and has become your companion. Please return him. We will travel to collect. This has broken our hearts. "Our home isn't home without him. If you pm us no one will need to know. We just need him home. He was originally my daughters therapy dog for her epilepsy but has become a huge part of our wee family."

Nate twist in early Emmerdale ITVX streaming release as legend taken to station
The following article contains spoilers from an episode of Emmerdale that hasn't aired on ITV1 yet, but can be viewed on ITVX. Tracy Shankley (Amy Walsh) and Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) are in the middle of an intense back and forth in Emmerdale, as they continue to believe the other person murdered Nate Robinson (Jurell Carter). On Monday, Cain opened up to John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth), Nate's actual murderer, and said that he really wants to grieve for his son, but Tracy's ongoing theory that he's a killer is getting in his way. Feeling the tiniest bit sorry for him, John decided to form a plan, and it involved framing Tracy. The police arrived at her house first thing and announced they had a warrant to search the premises. As Tracy's home was turned upside down, the police then made an alarming discovery. Hiding in Frankie's playhouse was Nate's phone. The detective in charge already knows that Nate's phone has been switched on near the village, suggesting the person who killed him lives there. This certainly didn't look good. In order to officially question Tracy, the detective took her to the station. More Trending There, Tracy protested her innocence and grew increasingly frustrated at the fact she wasn't listened to. When the detective in charge then learnt about Tracy using a credit card in Nate's name, she suggested that she killed her partner with a plan to profit from it afterwards.
