I'm honestly hoping no one searches for him because I don't want to give him back to a family that allows him to run free.
I know I could be wrong, but the fact that he is unneutered, no collar and matted leads me to think he is not taken very good care of.
I know I would be crushed if I lost either of my two... But they both have nice haircuts, collars, are chipped and fixed. I just think all dogs should have as good of a life as my two  |
Thank you so much for saving that poor little yorkie.
I think you shouldnt jump to conclusions though and give the owners the benefit of doubt. He could have gotten out of a yard and got lost. Someone could have stolen this baby and then dumped him. You just never know what happened! Not everyone has a computer to put an ad on craigs list. I would check local news paper and put an ad yourself saying you found a yorkie and give the owners an opportunity to find him. Where I live, those ads are free. Just cuz he wasnt neutered doesnt mean that he was abused or neglected. There may be a medical reason why he hasnt been neutered yet.
There might be someone at wits end trying to find him. Give them some time and if nobody claims him, then do the above. I'm thrilled though that you took him off the streets.
