French tourists issue desperate plea to find beloved dog missing on Conic Hill
A French couple are desperately hoping to find their beloved Cocker Spaniel that went missing near the summit of Conic Hill on Thursday.
A French couple on holiday in Scotland have issued a desperate plea to try and trace their beloved pet dog which went missing on one of the country's most famous hillsides.
They had been scaling Conic Hill, near Loch Lomond, on Thursday, July 17 with their beloved Cocker Spaniel.
Owners Virginie Sibylle and Stéphane Tronche are now urgently looking to trace six-year-old Caramel.
The pet pooch was last seen near the summit of the hill at around 4pm that day.
The couple, from Angers, north western France, were enjoying a holiday in nearby Balmaha and will remain in the country until Saturday, July 26.
Issuing an appeal to walkers in the area, they said: 'He's easily recognisable as he's missing hair on his back so you can see his black skin.'
Caramel had been exploring the local area in the days prior to going missing, including a boat trip on the Steamship Sir Walter Scott across Loch Katrine.
They're now urging any walkers in the Conic Hill area who think they may have spotted Caramel to get in touch.
Anyone who thinks they've seen the dog are asked to contact the couple on WhatsApp on either 0033667102884 or 0033620464620.
