Found - Black Lab in Pt. Washington
A black lab (looks like a lab to me!) is wandering the neighborhood in Bay Magnolia (Amelia Lane) - off of E. Pt. Washington Rd. Someone called Animal Control and they are trying to catch him. If he is your dog, please let Animal Control know - and please come get him. He seems sweet. He let my son pet him, but sure did growl at the Animal Control folks. I am going to attempt to post a pic:

Bless his little lost heart!
He looks pretty aged and tired, but, sweet!  I hope and pray that he finds his way home, soon. You might benefit from posting an ad, on petfinder.com. That sight's great for searching for a pet, "found" pets(like you did), as well as "lost" pets. People can also search all animal shelters for lost pets, on the website. I hope that someone feeds him, poor guy. I appreciate your efforts, too! I can hardly count the pets that I've rescued, it's a wonderful feeling! Please keep us, posted.
Good luck!

You're so great, to shelter him!
I'm so glad that he's still there, safe and fed! Hopefully, he'll find his family and soon!

Is he neutered? I disnt think old labs who are fixed wander very far from home,,,most of them I have had or ever known are fixated on their owners.
I sure hope the poor old guy wasn't a drop off.
Just a thought but have you taken him to one of the local vets to see if he has a micro chip?

I believe he is neutered. So far, he will only let my 9 year old son get close to him for any length of time. He was pretty spooked with the animal control people trying to get a leash around his neck. Great suggestion about checking for a microchip.

i hope animal control doesn't get a hold of him.
as t. cline will tell you, the fate of black dogs in shelters is usually sealed. so sad. hope he finds a good home before it's too late.

update on black lab
Yes, we were feeding him and making sure he had water. He also got to the point where he would let the whole family pet him. And now he is gone. He was here yesterday morning but was gone when I got home from work and he hasn't reappeared as of yet. He was well trained and healthy. We noticed some work being done on a house down the road, truck parked out in front for a few days, etc. The truck is gone now and so is the dog - we think (hope) it may have been his dog all along. I called animal control and they did not pick him up. Thanks for all your thoughts and kind words - hopefully this big fellow just went home!
