Well, no, the puppy mill idea didn't enter my mind, but supposedly the dog is in really good shape, seems very healthy and is housetrained, and wasn't starving or anything, so it sounds like it had been somebody's pet.
I tried on Fidofinder and all the ones I found it looked like they were lost in '06 or at least a year ago and this was just found (from what I understand) a few days ago. I'll check there again and on Craigslist (which is how I got to Fidofind to begin with).
I've now called all the vets anywhere around, and found one girl who it MIGHT belong to; she lost her male on Feb 1st, and it's not chipped. So, I'm going to work with that, but in the meantime, til we have the dog scanned for a chip, I'm going to keep looking.
If we can't find the owner after all this, I will probably keep the dog (and have him chipped). I'd just really love to find it's rightful owner, b/c I know how I'd feel if I lost Max. It would be so great to reunite him with his owner!
