I need advice...

This won't be popular, but if you can't catch him and can't take him to your home, I'd call animal control. At least he'd be fed and warm and if they did have to euthanize him, at least it would be a humane death, not a painful, suffering one. Maybe call your AC and ask if they would let you know if it came to euthansia. Where I used to live, the AC would let people know if they were going euthanize a dog they had brought in (Not owner surrenders, but if you found a stray). Then the person had the option of pulling the dog out and finding it a home themselves.

Are there any other shelters or rescues near you besides animal control?

Yeah, I was going to suggest a rescue society. Is any identifiable breed? Can you say he is definitely part something specific? If not, there are rescue societies that take multiple mixes and place them in foster care. Good luck, fingers crossed for the poor doggie.

It took as if our Animal control is also a animal shelter? We have a Wake County SPCA but I don't know if they pick up animals...I don't think so. I'm also not sure of his breed, but I'm thinking of trying to take some food to him and take a picture. Wish me luck. Everyday this week that I've had to drive past him broke my heart. He hangs out by the cars as if he is waiting for his mommy/daddy to come get him.
