Ricky Gervais in hunt for lost dog

Ricky Gervais is our hero today for stepping in to help a neighbour find their lost dog. The missing pup, a Whippet called Manon, was featured in Gervais' local paper.

Not only has he been scouring parks and gardens looking for the dog, he's also roped in local friends and residents including Jonathan Ross to help speed up the search.

I hope he's able to find Manon and reunite him with his owner, who must be worried sick. Here's hoping he's microchipped, too... (Manon, not Ricky - thanks, Andy!).

Don't forget to visit the Dogs Trust website for more information on what to do if you've lost your dog.
