I have seriously been running into alot of people online who just find a dog and keep it...
they always claim that they are in an area where dogs are dumped all the time and the dogs never have tags...so that magically makes it ok
whats everyones take on this...My understanding is you can't just legally keep a dog you find...not to mention the morality behind it...
if I wanted to keep a dog I found I would take it to the pound...be very firm that I wanted to adopt that dog once the stray hold was up and then adopt him legally.
Aside from the moral objection to inadvertantly stealing som'ones dog, I would not want to take the chance of a lawsuit.
thoughts?
