Poor guy. Can you maybe talk to them? Sad Christmas is coming up and he will be out in the yard with nobody to play with. This makes me sick to think there are dogs out there that live outside and nobody cares about them. Is he even getting fed and proper shelter and water? If not, I would call AC especially since it's been so cold. Puppies normally can't regulate their body temperature at that age even.

He could freeze to death. I would maybe put a blanket for him tonight if you can and maybe some treats if you are sure the people won't come after you. It's a risky move to do that, but if you feel safe doing it for the poor guy then I would. If not just talk to the pup. I am sure he appreciates YOU being there to even give him a bit attention than that so called family would.
