found a couple pups in the woods
« on: November 14, 2016, 11:32:33 AM »
Unit 121.  Dont know if somebody dumped them or what.  Theyre not scrawny, but the black one is full of burrs.  Anybody recognize them?  One has a collar with tag removed.

Bango, any vet or shelter will scan them for a microchip for free.  Good luck finding their folks.

I can say this. I have seen more lost dogs found by owners from sharing on Facebook and or Craigslist.  Pretty powerful medium and I don't know a dog owner that doest "share" lost dog posts. 2c
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

  I really hope someone didn't dump them.  We ended up with a high energy pup that someone dumped in the woods.  Ended up being the best dog ever.

I hope you can find the owner.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

I have pretty good reason to believe they got dumped.  Theyll be taking a ride into town with me tomorrow, getting them somewhere that they wont get eaten by wolves or cougars.  Unfortunately keeping them is not an option for me.  Losing 2 days of hunting cause of these mutts.  Sweet dogs, never understand how people will just abandon animals in the mountains like that, but unfortunately its not uncommon around here.

No choice but to take them to the colville pound tomorrow unless somebody in the area wants to take them in.

Good on you Bango.  You picked em up, saved them from being predator chow, and gave them room and board for a few days.  I hope they find good homes.

Okay, no pound, cant do it.  Im sure they were abandoned, but ill try to find the owners, in the off chance that theyre being looked for.  They will have a good home in the mean time, permanently if need be.

I can vouch for these two dogs, met them sunday.  They are amazingly good dogs.  Friendly and responsive to commands.  If I had the room for them I'd pick them up.  Just hoping if someone lost them they'll get found.  On a side note I found two malamutes about 6 miles from houses last year on weyco land (I posted their pics as they looked like wolves on the west side).  I guess folks that were missing them for a week posted on facebook and they were found.  So hopefully folks in the 121 are posting about them.

 Call the Colville city animal control officer ( at the Colville Police dept.). I think they have a list of people wanting border collies---- If you want to split them up.

Theyre already split up, it was the only option to avoid the pound, where they almost certainly would have been split up anyway.  I think its okay though.  The brown one is super friendly, but bullies the black one.  The black one doesnt seem upset in the least.  And i was told hes probably an australian shepherd  :dunno:  .  Anyway, awesome dog.  He sure likes cats.
