It says they called the shelter twice, but it doesn't say when...doesn't say whether the dog is usually allowed to run loose....

I still say whether or not the owners took the time to get the dog registered with the city, the guy should still give the dog back. If it was me, and I had just adopted this lost dog and then the owners came to me a few days later and asked for their dog back, I would be sad but I'd still give them their dog back. There's little kids involved.

It's just sad all the way around.
