There has been no suggestion that dairy farmer Scott Guy or his wife were followed in the weeks before his murder but investigators would be remiss not to consider the possibility, police said today.

Sources yesterday told the Herald police had asked local businesses for footage of Kylee Guy from local businesses so they could determine if she was being followed.

Detective Inspector Sue Schwalger today confirmed that police were looking at the CCTV footage but said it was to verify where Mr and Mrs Guy were on the days leading up to his murder.

She said there was no evidence that the Guys had been followed.

"There has been no suggestion that Kylee and Scott Guy were being followed however it would be remiss of police not to consider this as part of the inquiry," Ms Schwalger said.

It is almost three weeks since the 31-year-old was killed with a shotgun at the end of the driveway to his Feilding farm, and police are still no closer to finding his killer.

Mr Guy left behind a wife, Kylee, who is pregnant, and a son, Hunter, 2.

Police spokeswoman Kim Perks she yesterday that: "The only comment we would make is a general one, which is the investigation team is collecting numerous CCTV from in and around Feilding and analysing it."

She would not say whether the footage was of Mrs Guy.

Police also said yesterday they were trying to identify the drivers of two vehicles seen driving away from Mr Guy's home on the morning of his death.

No detailed descriptions were available of the cars, but they were both seen driving at separate times towards Campbell Rd, between 4.30am and 5am.

Police want to hear from anyone who was driving along Aorangi Rd at that time so they can be eliminated from the inquiry.

An extensive area canvass has been completed and about 250 drivers were stopped at roadblocks around Aorangi Rd a week after the killing, but the drivers of the two vehicles have not been identified.

Police also revealed last week that three chocolate Labradors, worth about $700 each, were stolen from Mr Guy's home on the morning of his death. They had been advertised for sale.

On Friday they called for a woman giving away puppies in the Warehouse carpark in Palmerston North to come forward. She did so at the weekend but the puppies were not Labradors.
