Shelly Epley we are giving the dog his space for now I've not seen his collar yet. We hope he doesn't have to go to the humane society, his home (if he still has one) or a good placement would be great.

I just asked the lady that mentioned she thought it lived on 20th if she knew for certain where that dog supposedly lived?  does it not have any info on his collar? Or were you able to run it by a vet to see if it has a chip yet? Such a beautiful dog 😥 I know that Humane Society does not open until 10 AM tomorrow. I guess they would take it from you. Or maybe a rescue like Happy Tails Rescue,Inc in Maiden may take it. I would definitely call them and if you can’t get them they work with Animal Hospital North behind Wendy’s off 127 and you could take the dog there in the morning when they open and ask them if they could contact the rescue to see if they would take it. If it has a rabies tag on it, at all they would be able to trace it back that way too.

Do you know if this dog lives on 20th for certain? The gentleman that has it thinks it may have been just dumped out?

Shelly Epley l went by the house on 15th street. They have obviously moved. I have no proof and I'm not criticizing or blaming but it appears to me he was maybe "dropped off" in our neighborhood. We have an older dog and another dog is just not possible for us. One other thing, the dog appears to be around one to one and a half years old ,very cute with unique colors

Shelly Epley It's naive to think you or anyone else can prevent all accidents. No one is perfect.

Shelly Epley He's on our back porch and has food and shelter with a ceiling fan. So he's OK for the moment.

There’s NO accidents if you’re paying attention! And you need to pay attention to the dog as you would a child!!!

Oh maybe if you sit on the ground and offer it some rotisserie chicken or something? Hopefully it’ll warm up to you so it can have some shelter since it looks like it’s getting ready to come up a storm. If you could get it to come to you and get a leash on it, you could take it to the emergency vet and they could scan it to see if it has a chip or they could get the info from the collar. Then they would get in touch with the owners . I found a dog on sixth Street and did that and they contacted the owners. But it appears someone needs to verify that the owners care about the dog and want to keep it if it’s an issue with it “ accidentally escaping !”
