Sitka's stoopid owners....

What is a choke collar?

A choke collar is used to train dogs when they are out for walks. If the dogs pull, the collar gets tighter and it could choke the dog to death if the dog pulls enough.

I know how you feel,Last year i had a Border Collie land in my yard numerous times,He had a tag on so the first and second time i called the township,But the 3rd time i had his owners number memorized.

They had found the dog themselves,I think the dog must be trying to find his original owners,Has to be he takes off everyday nearly.

I had not seen him in months until he showed up at a friend of mines house,So she put posters up all over,Still nothing.

In your case he will be safe at the pound.

Problem in this area if the dog has no tags and have not been claimed in a few days the dog catcher shoots them,Id like to shoot him but.....

Dogs seem to learn pretty quickly, but it can be a real challenge to "train" their owners! Hopefully the fine or threat of a fine will get them to take responsibility, or to decide to give Sitka up so he can go to a good home. I had two strays come right up to my front door one day - no collars, no tags - so I called animal control (had to leave for work) - the minute she saw them she said she knew who the owner was -- this was at least the third time these dogs had been picked up. More stoopid owners !

Good luck with Sitka, he seems like a sweet boy.
