Yellow Lab in Daughette taken by Dog Catcher today who is owner??

[carterr96]

Yellow lab (in desparate need of neutering) was picked up today by dog catcher and taken to Chipley. If the owner isn't located or someone bails him out he will be put to sleep in 5 days the dog napper says..
Does anyone know who the owner is? He is such a friendly dog, I hate to see anything happen to him.

There was a thread about this dog some time ago. I wish I knew who the owner was.

[singinchicken]

I have been searching the archives based on every option I can think of. I even looked for OMB's because I remember somebody asking how the dog even managed to run. Somebody has to remember. I'm almost positive there is somebody out there who knows where it lived...

I think JDarg started the last thread if that helps find it.

Here is the thread I was talking about.

Now that I re-read it I see that it became a trainwreck about pigs, bacon and fences....

The dog catcher is not the villian of this piece. :angry:

Why do people get dogs if they aren't going to care for them properly? :idontno:

Amen! You're preaching to the choir, here! Glad the owner has been notified, though. Thank goodness OMB's are a distinguishing feature, or it could have been any run of the mill Lab!

And yes, BeachSiO2, that was the thread. I wonder why I couldn't pull it up looking using "yellow", "Lab", and "intact"?

sometimes, even well cared for dogs like to escape, run free and chase the deer.

[scooterbug44]

Very true, but when the dog is running loose so frequently it has its own Sowal thread w/ multiple complaints and someone calls the dogcatcher..............well cared for isn't the first thought that pops into my head!

[Smiling JOe]

I hear what you are saying, but some dogs, like one of mine, are crafty. he jumped the fence, dug under the fence, chewed threw the wooden fence, slipped out of a shock collar and chewed it to pieces, etc. all in the name of running free and tracking other animals. He loves to wander.

I'm definitely hearing you about dogs' inherant love of roaming and persuing wildlife and new friends, which is why ours all have tags in case they roam! :wave:

Digging under a fence is nothing - my brother's chocolate just jumped out the truck window at 45 mph after a fox!

I live on Chrysler Ave. (off Bay Dr.) and there is a male yellow lab named Charlie who comes by looking for my lab all the time. I believe his owner lives on W. Mitchell Ave. I do know he runs amuck all the time and is usually soaking wet from swimming. One of my neighbors on Chrysler put a black collar on him about 3 wks. ago. Not sure if this is same dog and I didn't check to see if he was neutered. Hope some finds his owner. He is such a sweet dog.

[Crazy K]

Guess I should have read scottalderson's reply. Same dog. Sorry, I'm new at this.

My dogs have tags on their collars, but it's not like they keep those collars on when they are chasing deer, rabbits, cats, racoons, etc. :lol:

One word...microchip. Hardly costs anything, and all shelters / most all Vets have the scanners. Even if you don't register the number, the number series can still be traced to the Vet that it was supplied to who, in turn, can see whose dog it's in...

[Smiling JOe]

Got one of those microchips, too, but I am told that not all scanners are able to read the different types of chips. My dogs don't normally roam anymore, because I don't have a fence for them to chew through. I just keep them inside or on the porch, or on the leash, but they do escape on occasion.

I hope that the dog and family are reunited soon. I am sure the trip to "puppy prison" in Chipley (of all places) can be traumatic. But animal control does come in the area ALOT. They even picked up my dog, took in for an "overnighter" in Chipley, but then brought him back to me when they realized they had "picked him up as a stray" out of MY YARD!:bang:

Pls keep us updated. I don't want another dog but will bail him out and let him cause me further marital issues :lol: if it saves his life until someone takes him permanently...

Thank you for being "critter minded". We already have 7 that were homeless...would take another...but I think marital issues would begin. I hear ya!:clap:

The trip to puppy prison is surely preferable to being a road pizza or serious injury. Not to mention roaming dogs are not welcome at everyone's house- this dog was very disruptive to my fenced dogs.:angry:

Hopefully when the owner bails this dog out of jail, he/she will get those nuts off that dog!! It will not only help the roaming, but will prolong his life.

This sounds like a case of don't mess with Barbara Barker! :clap:

[seagrovegirl]

Dogs, male or female act on instinct when the doggiemones kick in. If they are neutured they don't have such a strong instinct to get it on. Male dogs are literally being led by their nads. Having your pet fixed will not only help curb the puppy population it will tame your pet enough to calm down and not have the urge to run.

[scottalderson]

if we could just figure out what to do to slow down the humans that run amok and wreak havoc on the poor innocent souls that expect to exist in a vacuum of undisturbed utopia.

maybe we should call the dog catching units.

Amen. Leave my vacuum alone.
