| What would you do if your neighbor... left her dog outside in sub-freezing weather? ( It was 16 degrees this morning and 22 degrees this afternoon.) The dog is a Yorkie (or Silkie)/Poodle mix, about 4 years old. I did do something!!!...I want to know what you would have done.

YT 1000 Club Member | Although I know it isn't the right thing to do I would have taken him and then promptly found a new home where I knew he would be loved. And if the neighbor asked if I had seen him I would have said I think I may have seen him a few days ago running down the street.

| I have to agree with the previous posters. The poor baby. Please say he's ok!

| *take the dog, go knock on the neighbor's door, when he/she answered, pull them out them out of the house and put the dog in the house, locking the door behind me so the person would be locked out* ----no i really wouldnt do that, but it would be tempting! i would call the animal control, or police and reported the person. |

| I would take him in , then later call the neighbor and say ," He escaped but don't worry I have him inside where he is warm and safe ." ( maybe she will get the hint) then if she did it again I would call Animal control.

| I'm not sure what I would do but I would have to do something. I couldn't watch an animal suffer like that without helping.

| I think it would depend on how long they kept the dog outside. If it was out too long (for my opinion) I would go find out if they forgot about the dog, and if not, then I'd let them know it was just too cold for a dog to be out longer than it takes to do it's business. If they create a bad scene then I'd tell them if it happens again, I'll call animal control and the police.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Omg, I would've gotten that dog IMMEDIATELY in that weather! And depending upon the history of how this neighbor treated this baby, I would've then decided what was in the best interest of that innocent creature. I guess the lesson is: don't move in next to me! Please tell us he is safe?
