    Story

    On 15th September, 2018, my darling Amo was stolen from the Midland Game Fair, Telford. She is my first pup that I bred myself and I am beyond heartbroken that she has been taken by somebody.

    Amo is now 18 months old, she was born unable to breathe on her own. Amo was the last pup of five, and her mother was very tired after 12 hours of labour. Before she was born, we unfortunately had a still-born, so when Amo was struggling to breathe, I was determined that I was going to pull this tiny puppy through. It took 45 minutes of me rubbing Amo up and down with a towel to get the blood to flow through her body to enable her to breathe on her own. After those long 45 minutes, Amo was able to breathe independently and joined the other three puppies who were successful in their delivery. From the moment she was born, I had a connection with my little girl, I knew that she was mine, and I loved her from that moment onwards.

    I am hoping to raise money for a few different things, and I hope to explain in detail what the money will be going towards.

    Firstly, I have organised hoodies and t-shirts to be made with Amo's photo and details, her facebook and twitter pages, and a contact number in hope to raise awareness of Amo all around the country. I have ordered a total of 60 hoodies so far, totalling £672. Fortunately, I set up a fundraiser prior to this, which raised a total of £449 (excluding the % taken by the page where it was set up). People were also willing to contribute to the hoodies by £10, and £5 for the t-shirts, which meant that the total deficit of cost was £52, which I have paid for. I am hoping to continue placing orders for the hoodies and t-shirts, to keep Amo's profile high, and make her "too hot to handle", in hope that her face is absolutely everywhere.

    Secondly, I am currently looking into getting advertisement around every Moto Service Station and through Network Rail to put Amo's poster around the U.K in hope that everybody who uses those services see's it, and joins in my search in getting my gorgeous girl home. The total cost is looking to be £720. Every penny is worth it if it means getting her home where she belongs.

    Finally, there are the extra costs which often don't get calculated. Fuel is a big cost of mine, as I am travelling all over the U.K in search for Amo. I have done over 5,000 miles in my car in search for Amo since she was taken. Luckily my car is fairly economical, so I get roughly 500 miles per £72 tank, already that is approximately £720 worth of fuel already spent on trying to get Amo home. There is also the cost of printing posters, in which I spent £99 on 5k posters, which I am running low on, so another 5k will be ordered within the next couple of weeks. Other costs include boosting posts on facebook, total so far of around £200 and sending posters to people in the post who then distribute around their area.

    Pet theft is constantly on the rise, and I am desperate to help other people who are experiencing what I am going through. When Amo does return home, I can promise that every penny of the money left over will go to somebody else who is experiencing what I am currently going through.

    I have spent a lot of money so far on finding Amo, and I am not going to stop until she's home where she belongs, however I need your help. I am a 20 year old student, and I am currently sacrificing my health, my degree and general living to get Amo home. I really need your help to get her home. Any contribution to her cause will be greatly received, whether you message me asking for a hoodie or t-shirt, contribute £5 to her fund, or help me with postering around the U.K (I am happy to send posters through the post to people).

    Please help Get Stolen Amo Home.
