Darren, 36, who resides in Redford Barracks in the capital, had left Angus with a friend while attending a training camp.

The search for Angus has consumed Darren’s every moment, with minimal sleep and an unwavering focus on finding his loyal companion. Despite the setbacks of hoax calls claiming Angus has been located, Darren has continued his search efforts, utilizing social media, posting in local forums, setting up a dedicated Facebook page, and even deploying drones through the help of a rescue charity.
However, amidst the outpouring of support from concerned locals, Darren has had to contend with the distressing reality of pranksters exploiting his vulnerable state. Despite the disheartening hoax calls, Darren remains determined to follow up on every lead to ensure Angus’s safe return. The overwhelming support and assistance from the community have been a source of strength for Darren, reaffirming his faith in humanity during this trying ordeal.
Reflecting on what he would do upon reuniting with Angus, Darren expressed his longing to simply hold his furry friend close and never let him out of his sight. As the search for Angus continues, Darren remains resilient in his quest to bring his beloved dog back home, safe and sound.
