dog found near Vale de Milho

[steve]

An apparently elderly female brown spaniel has been living rough near the Vale de MiIho restaurant for the past 4 days. She has a collar, is very sociable and seems to respond to being spoken to in English. Her fur is very matted but has in the past been properly cut. I have brought her home in the car to try and clean her up and she was very comfortable with car travel. I will take her to my vet tomorrow to see if she is chipped but in the meantime would anyone please let me know if they can help identify her.
