How do I help a wandering stray dog?
Phoenix friends, I need your help! I know he’s one of many on our streets, but when I was leaving the Rose Mofford dog park I noticed this guy walking around and started following him. No collar and definitely looks like he’s been on the street awhile, his fur is matted and it’s hot out. I called the humane society and they said they could have someone out within 48 hours(?!) - called 911, and they were more receptive, but I’ve just been waiting and watching him now for the past hour as he goes up and down West Mission Lane and occasionally lies under a shaded tree. A woman who works in this complex said he’s been around since she got here around 7am. I have my two dogs in the car, so I unfortunately can’t get him in my car myself. I want to help this sweet guy, what can I do? I don’t want him ending up in a kill shelter. What options do we have here? Any advice would be appreciated.
