Default Hiya ( I am worried about a dog my hubby agreed to watch.

This post is not necessarily about Yorkies . My husband agreed to watch a Mastiff Puppy about 3 weeks ago and she was brought to my home. she was so huge i didn't dare bring her in house with my 4 yorkies instead I fixed her up with nice bed in shed. She seemed very timid and would barely walk. I asked my husband what I was expected to do with her. He said the owner wanted me to get her to walk and socialize better(like I am some great dog trainer). Well, needless to say i was overwhelmed as I am used to these tiny yorkies and it all seemed a bit shady to me. Well, the story comes out and my husband tells me that the guy told him that he breeds Mastiffs in a barn and he was talking abt shooting her if she didnt start walking(poor thing has a crooked tail too). So my husband felt bad and said his lovely wife would fix things. Come to find out this guy has one huge male and he is breeding it with 4 females. He is selling them for tons of money too. so I was furious and told my husband i was going to report the man for running a puppy mill(isn't this a puppy mill?) I also threatened to find someone and give the dog away. Well my husband called man and startes asking him lots of questions. I suppose i put a bug in hubbys ear. The man called said he wanted Dog back and came and took as he has papers on the parents and ownership( I was not home, my son let him take her). I am not even sure of his exact address and if u saw the state of this Dog you would cry. Until she came to my house she had never even seen the light of day. She couldn't walk because she had no exercise in 2 weeks she was bouncing all over yard. And loved me soooo much. I know where this guy works and I am sure this dog was either killed or is back in her abusive enviroment. What can I do if I dont know the address? I know kinda what area he is living in but thats it. I am sooo worried about her
