Stray :(
I found this guy a months and months ago and still think about him. He was just sitting outside my boyfriend’s house and was almost in heat exhaustion along with burrs stuck to his fur. But still well groomed, had a good weight and was extremely friendly. We drove around the entire neighborhood with him trying to find his owners. Knocked on a lot of doors but just couldn’t find his owners. He was still intact down there but we hoped he might be microchipped and had him scanned at a local vet. Again, no luck. Sadly my older dog has gotten aggressive in her older age and my boyfriend’s cat has incredible beef with every dog ever. So we left him at the city shelter hoping someone would come and get him. I checked his online status every day and no one ever came for him. My friend works with rescues and was attempting to get him into a foster home but was struggling since he didn’t work with that city. It really broke my heart to leave him, but I thought it was his best chance at being found. As soon as my friend found a way to get him out, got some placement and paperwork in place he called the shelter but they said he was already picked up by a local schnauzer rescue.
I was so happy and spent weeks looking for him online at every schnauzer rescue. I just wanted to know if he was okay. Never did find him… I’m not sure what happened, if what they said was even true… Surely the rescue would have posted him eventually… But I still think about him :( I named him Mr. Hobo because look at him. Does he just not scream Mr. Hobo??
