On the first of February, Nastro the dog wandered off during a walk. Nastro is an 8-year-old Samoyed. He was seen in someone's back garden on the 2nd of February. It has now been five weeks since the dog went missing and owner Marie Duffy is desperate for the safe return of her pet. A Facebook page has been set up since early on in the search, with Marie and her family posting regular updates. “It's officially day 5 and we still don't have Nastro sleeping in our bed. His favourite place to sleep is on my pillow which results in me using him as a pillow! I only hope that he is sleeping comfortably now. Our concern is growing every day that we may never get to give this amazing fluffy man a cuddle again”. Now determined that to be reunited with Nastro, Marie and family have offered a €5,000 reward for his safe return – no questions asked. They write:  'We are putting the reward up to €5,000 but only until Monday 14th for the safe return of Naz.  It breaks our heart to say this but Nastro has not been seen in 4 and a half weeks since Newcastle. It's been 3 and a half weeks since he was possibly seen in bray. This means that someone has probably taken him in. They may not know he is missing as his collar could be gone.  We need your help to like and share this post immediately to get the word out there that we need our dog home. Please don't judge us but instead help us' Since his disappearance, there have been a few sightings. According to the dedicated search Facebook Page, here’s what we know.
