he was seen again around 10 pm by my husband in the same place i last seen him so i know he is at least staying in the safe from cars part of the neighborhood. my husband left a little water out for him (no food) because he had been running a lot and thought if he left some water out for him he could maybe relax.

my husband thinks that because he was in the same part of the neighborhood and that he came back in from the main road that maybe he does live around here and i just never seen him before maybe he is a backyard dog.

i haven't been out yet today so i don't know if he is still out. i didn't get any emails from anyone looking for him
i keep thinking if i did gain his trust there is nothing i can do. i can't bring him home. there is no way i want to bring a dog with unknown health history and unknown temperment around where Peanut and my young niece live too.

ugh. i wish more people especially in this breed were more responsible. i fear that if something happens they will make something such as a mantatory s/n law happen in this area because of a stray (since that is the only type of bsl we have here). or someone wakes up to see a sleeping stray in their yard they may think aww look at the homeless dog but if they wake up and see a stray pitbull in their yard especially a terrified one (he seems that he would be very friendly if he wasn't scared) they may panic.

update**

I just took Peanut on his am walk and i did not see the dog anywhere but i did stop and talk to one of my neighbors and he said he seen a dog that looked similar to Peanut but lighter color and i told him that was the same dog i seen. he told me when he seen him he was driving on the main road and seen the dog crossing traffic against the green light (one car had to slam on its breaks to avoid him) and seen him coming into the neighborhood. he thought of calling AC but knew it was after hours and was going to call 911 but didn't think they would come to a stray dog. i told him if he sees him again to call AC because they will get him off the street and if he has a chip they will scan him and get him home if he escaped.

i hope someone sees him and gets a hold of AC. i feel a little better though knowing others seen him and are going to do the right thing if they see him.

i know this seems dumb but it is bothering me. i feel so bad for this dog.
