[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1784976, member: 25884"] I agree with you [USER=9096]@Nesikep[/USER] ... my post was mostly in support of the post that [USER=42463]@Travlr[/USER] made about the "possibility" that he was lost.... as I have known several in those situations. The fact that he has been so well "recorded" in your area leans to the "dumped" scenario.... WHY ... is the question. That would be my thoughts and unless he is chipped and winds up in a "stolen" database... then what you have done and are doing is the very best thing for this dog.... I fully support your keeping him and it sounds as if your mom especially is liking him too..... if they ever do find he was just dumped because someone just didn't want him, they ought to string the "dumpers" by their "set"...... He is a beautiful dog and I hope that he soon trusts you enough to be able to check for the chip, and then go forth from there..... I wound up with a beautiful White German Shepherd many years ago. Wandered into the farm, no collar, no ID.... called the vet's office, called the animal control/dog warden... they offered to come get him... I said no, he is fine, but if someone is looking for him I want them to be able to find him... I would be heartsick if he was mine and got lost....talked to the animal shelter.... had a few calls for a couple of months but none were his owners... had him for years and he was the best thing ever..... some kids in a big jacked up truck purposely swerved and hit him at the neighbors yard, he loved to go visit their kids; They saw them do it.....and when I took him to the vet, they were going to have do surgery to set the leg and he looked at me and whimpered when I left him, and he passed away overnight. The vet said he cried when I went out the door... and he thinks the dog thought I was abandoning him and just gave up..... broke my heart when they called me the next morning.... and they were pretty upset.... Regardless of where he came from, I hope he will be happy there with your family on the farm. [/QUOTE]
