re: Who gets to adopt the Catahoula pup? Continuation from earlier thread.

I'll talk to Nap about it tomorrow. I just want to make sure he's a responsible owner.

Had a similar situation happen a couple years ago. Found a young female beagle behind our home with no collar or chip. Kept her in our backyard with the two dogs we had at the time for two days trying to find the owner or someone to adopt her. Had some guys installing our LUS Fiber at the house and the wife asked them if they wanted a beagle. The black guy says his uncle has beagles for rabbit hunting and might want her. Calls his uncle and guy says he'll take her. Perfect! So we bring her to the guys house that afternoon and we go around the back of his house with the dog and he keeps them in a raised wooden kennel. Each dog had a space about 2'x4' to themselves with hog wire between each section. A small sleeping area but mostly wire floors. So I put her in the kennel and thank the guy for taking her and leave. I can hear her howling as we walked to my truck and it broke my heart. We drive off and I tell my wife, "Well it's better than being put to sleep". That night I dreamed about that damn dog in that little kennel. Next morning I woke up and told my wife, "I'm going get her, I can't condemn her to live in that little kennel". So I called the guy up and told him that the owners had just contacted us and wanted their dog back. He said no problem and I went and picked her up shortly after. Actually found a great couple with another dog and a huge yard to adopt her the next day, so it turned out well for her and my conscious!
