Poor puppies

[Tink]

Last weekend we lured a dog out of the middle of the road and took her home by reading her tags.
Today we have a doxxie here that was sitting outside barking up a storm. She'd been running with a retractable lead attached to her collar and it got snagged on the wheel on my daughters car so she couldn't get loose. She's friendly, and seems happy to be in the house, but her tags only give an 800 # for a micro chip place and it says she belongs to a humane society in a county and town we've never heard of. Naturally no one answers there on a Sunday.

WHY do people let their animals roam like this? It just burns me up.

You would think the people would be out looking for their dog?! Hmmm... some people :rolleyes: :eek: :rolleyes:

That's so sad. But, it may not be the owner's fault. They could have a runner on their hands.

You're absolutely right, I shouldn't have jumped to conclusions. BUT, if they do have a runner on their hands, they will need to rectify the problem as soon as possible to keep this baby safe...:)

THe Doxxie ended up belonging to our neighbors elderly father who is visiting her. I was glad to be able to return her to him, but bit my tongue rather than come right out and ask HOW the dog came to be running lose dragging a leash.
My guess is he'd tied her out with it,'cause we tried knocking on her door to ask if she knew where the dog belonged and she wasn't home. The dog was here several hours, but at least if was safe.

That was nice you held your tongue, sometimes that can be really hard especially when it concerns a poor little doggie. So glad you were able to help them, I'm sure they appreciated it a bunch. :)

Thank you for being such a good person to take in this baby.... I am glad he found his owner... I bet his "daddy" didnt even know he was loose....

Glad you got to find out who he belongs to, and good of you to not speak your mind ;)
At least he was safe with you and didnt roam the streets!
Let's hope they learned something!!
