I am upset at the thought of you peaking out your window or door all day instead of making a simple call when there is any possiblity of a danger. Then news is filled all day with such things that "no one"noticed...etc.... I am not mad at you, I'm upset that people, human beings to day are still afraid to take action and help a child or a pup in danger.....why???? I just don't get it.
I would not hesitate for one single second to knock on the door, pound on the door, lay on my horn in the driveway...(all things I have done) if I didn't get an answer, I would call the police, period. |
Listen to Lynzy, she's an expert. I would call animal control, but I would do it NOW, not wait until 7 PM--tell them everything you have seen and heard. When I saw a dog with a broken chain caught in a bush in a neighbor's yard, I didn't think twice about it. I called, and stood there and watched and waited (consoling the dog from a distance) until animal control came and rescued the dog. They assured me that they would find the dog's owner. In this case, you already know who the owner is, so calling animal control should be a no-brainer.
