A beloved French Bulldog, Bestie, has been missing since August 22, 2024, and the family is devastated. She was last seen on Airedale Road, Oamaru. Bestie is a tan, desexed female with a sweet and friendly personality, and she's microchipped.

💔 Bestie means the world to them, and we’re desperate to bring her home safely.

Please share this post far and wide across NZ — every share counts! A reward may be offered for information leading to her safe return. If you have seen her or have any information, please call 027 366 0822 immediately.

Thank you for your support 🙏
