Amy didn't mention it but we found a stray dog on Monday night. It was a chocolate lab, very skinny and no collar. We thought it was a stray but we walked around the neighborhood to check it out. No one recognized the dog except one man said he said it running loose on Main St. (which is very busy with truck traffic). He had some bare patches along his back near his tail and on his legs. We were afraid he might have mange and with our five we couldn't take the chance so we took him to the night drop at the Humane Society. I called the next morning to talk to them and tell them where we found him.
When I got home from work, two little boys came to my door and asked if I had found their chocolate lab. I asked them why he didn't have a collar on and they said he kept chewing through them. Evidently they leave him tied out when they are at school and mom is at work. They live at the very end of the street and evidently have not had the dog very long since on one seemed to know about it. (although long enough for him to chew through 4 collars and run away)
They said their mom was going to check with the Humane Society so I am sure they have him back by now. I will try uploading the pics again. And them post them.
I am glad Amy was able to find the dog's owner. It is sad when you have to leave them in a kennel they don't want to be in!
