Good luck and I hope everything works out for that poor little baby. You are both in my prayers. |
Most of the time this rule will apply. But more than likely the dog is registered and they will have the paperwork to prove it. It is very easy to play dumb about things when your dog runs away. I have delt with this many times when i was working as an animal control officer.
