EDIT: seems to not be able to sit down, sorry for the vague details, he's only been with us for a short time. Also if anyone knows who we can contact to give him too that would be a big help, as with it being saturday people are taking a while to get in touch.

he isnt limping, but it seems to us that he is in some discomfort when he is sitting down; i'm pretty sure its nothing major, just a few other people noticed it when we were at the park, so we've been watching him.

Laura, it might be his anal glands wanting cleaning out. Dya want me to poster the area? Bet someone is missing this boy big time. Has he been scanned? Have you phoned RSPCA 2898050 to log him as found? RSPCA might be the first place the owners might go to to find him. Just a thought xx

Hi.

 

Can I offer some advice as an expert in finding stray dogs! (gods knows why lol)

 

I must do this once a fortnight at least.

 

The main thing to do when finding a stray dog is to see if he is microchipped at the nearest place with a scanner, because if he is he could be back with his owner within the hour! We have found dogs and when a car hasnt been available I have even taken them on the bus!! Because It is ssoooo important to get them scanned for a chip prior to doing anything else.

 

 

This can be a problem if he wont go in a car but im sure some treats will help him get in the back of the car.

 

What we do if there is no vets in the area open is to take it to the pdsa building just off Brightside Lane, they will scan him for a microchip and check him over to see if he has anything wrong (with you saying he cant sit down) with him. If he is chipped they will contact the owner for you and the owner can pick him up from there.

 

If he isnt microchipped they will advise you what to do from there.

 

Believe me, after years of doing this for various resuces this is the best thing to do.
