My mom rescued a dog that has been loose for the past month.My mom finally decided to take him home with her this morning.He's a little thin,but nothing serious.He seems healthy too. We are calling him "Jack". He's a GORGEOUS brindle boy,not neutered.He gets along great with Kodie and Lucy.But we cant keep him.We are leasing and we can only have 2 dogs,and plus we're not sure if we want a third one.He's a very sweet boy and we love him,but we just can keep him. He looks like a lab/catahoula mix. We are taking him to a local rescue in about 15 minutes.Its a very good rescue,and they do adoptions at Petsmart every weekend. :) We are expecting him to be adopted out fast,he's so sweet.
I will have pictures up tonight. :)

We're having trouble finding finding a place :( .The place he was supposed to go to today couldnt take them because the lady in charge couldnt make it.But the staff there was helping us finding some one to take him.We're waiting for 2 calls still. Most likely we'll have to keep him over night,and take him tomorrow.We are going to drive around tonight to see if there are any lost signs for him.
poor guy,i feel so bad for him.

I am really sorry to hear that! I really hope he finds a shelter that will help him find him the perfect forever home. To bad you can't keep him. HOPE YOU FIND A GOOD RESCUE and GREAT GREAT LUCK!

We went out and we thought he would be ok in the laundry room,but he pretty much destroyed the door and some of the wall :eek:.We'll have to re-plasture some of the wall and totally replace the door.My parents are not happy about it,i'm not either.I knew it was a bad idea to leave him home alone. Most likely he'll be going to the rescue tomorrow.

Jack! you were bad! :eek: I'm sorry to the damage to the house. I guess Jack doesn't like being home alone. He is sure VERY beautiful. I hope Kodie doesn't miss him to bad.

Ohhhh, he is sooo handsome! I love his brindle coloring. He looks like a brindle labbie. I so wish that I could keep him myself. He is so handsome. I'm so sorry that he did some damage to the house. I hope you are able to get him into a good rescue place or maybe even a new home. Big thanks to you and your parents for helping him out.

What an interesting looking guy. I hope he finds his home. I am betting he has a family that is looking for him (I hope). It was so good of you to take him in. I am so sorry to hear about your door (unfortunately I can relate).

Well of course I LOVE his markings, how could I not with a brindle boy of my own;)
Sorry you had some damage from him, I definately know what that's like to keep an un known dog for a bit and have them tear things up.
Keeping my fingers crossed that he finds a great home, thanks for taking him in!

We're going to post signs up today.One of the ladies yesterday said there was a sign up for a lost brindle lab,so we made a few and put them in that neighborhood.We're taking him to the rescue today at 1. Well theres two different ones,but we're taking him to the one where we got Kodie from.If those two dont have room,then there's two other ones here also.
We dont want to take him to the SPCA because we know whats going to happen to him :(,and we refuse to take him there or to any pound.
I hope he has a owner looking for him,but he's been loose for over a month.We havent seen any signs for him so far.

he's now in the care of Twylas Friends (http://www.twyla.org) :) .They dont have any fosters for him yet,so he's staying at a kennel that they're paying for.There was 2 girls there who found an Aussie Shepherd so they came to drop them off with us. I was so sad to see him go but i'm glad he's with a good rescue.hopefully that lady will be able to foster him!

The foster could have taken him.I feel bad he has to stay in a kennel,but its better than the streets. :( Poor guy
