Found a stray :(


Adrian takes our dogs to the dog park religiously everyday and the past few days, he’s noticed a stray. It’s a 12-13 year old white/yellow Labrador. He must have been abandoned, which breaks our hearts. He took him to the vet, paid to have his fleas taken care of and food for a full belly, but doesn’t know what to do next. There was no chip and no tags. He’s been neutered, and is just an old dog that wants to lay around.

There’s a Lab Rescue here in town, but they don’t accept strays. We could take him to the Town Lake Shelter, but they euthanize within 2 weeks because of overcrowding.

Does anyone have any ideas of where we could go to find a good home or an alternative to the pound??
Adrian is willing to pay $200 towards any shots or updates that need to be done at the vet if someone could take him in. We have two cats and two dogs already and a 5th animal would just be too much for us to handle.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Priscilla
