Where do you bring a stray dog?

Answer 1

It all depends.

If the dog has a collar on it that has rabies shot tags and a name-tag, it most likely belongs to someone else. If the dog does not have a collar, it is either a stray or it could belong to someone.

If I was in your position, I would definitely post up flyers that say "FOUND DOG: CALL xxx-xxx-xxxx IF THIS IS YOUR DOG" and include a picture of the dog. If you want, you could get the police or your local animal shelter involved. But beware because if you get an animal shelter involved, they may take the dog from your care.

I would wait at least 2 weeks before you adopt the dog. I'm not sure how you would go about doing that, but I think you go to the animal shelter or to the vet. It's important that you legally adopt the dog so you have the paperwork if, God forbid, the dog ever gets injured.

Answer 2

Call animal control to report it as a stray.

Answer 3

Yes if you wish to feed it then this is fine to do so but be very careful it doesn't bite you. Only feed it dog food and inform the owners of its where abouts if this is possible.

Animal shelter.
