Ive already done the pound thing. They found him once there already. Thats what my plan was for him today.. but EVERY pound in my area is closed on the weekends, they only show up if you make an appointment durring the week (other than to feed/water the dogs and such).
BUT there is some good news. Obviously i couldnt hold him hostage forever... it would be pretty hard to hide him living nextdoor to them. So when they called asking if we had him i told her yea and told her what happend that was in the road again and that ill walk him over. Usually i try to be "nice" about it and not sound like a jerk but i gave them hell when they came outside to get him. I told her everything we did and how many ticks he had and how disgusting he was, and she was acting like i was lying or somthing. She said "oh but hes only been outisde a couple days now how could he have that many ticks?" Uh.. ok there is a swamp like 20-30 feet away from where he is. swamp=bugs. And hes always stuck in the bushes.. thats where ticks hang out. DUH. I showed her his neck and all the red bumps and she said "oh is that why it was all black there" noo...... it was black cause hes was disgustingly filthy.. the black covered the red bumps that were from the chain rubbing on his neck.
Aparently something made him think a tiny bit cause the wife just came back from the store with a regular buckle collar and i cant tell what hes tied on it looks like a really long regular leash its hard to tell from far away but its not the chain anymore so, yay its no major achievement but at least its a step in the right direction.
Im still deffinetly going to be talking to the lady with the ct animal rescue group.. cause they seem to "forget" anything i tell them after a couple days.
