UPDATE: I'll put it at the top for those who don't like to read the post.  Owner called around midnight and dog was returned last night.


Driving home, found a dog running around in the road.


Brought him home and he decided he liked the place.


And that he found his new family.



The wife unit works with the local animal rescue so she knows the drill of lost dogs.  Brought him to the vet down the road and no chip, no collar, nothing.  Posted him up all around the internet as well.  If  anybody knows of something that lost an Aussie in Schoolcraft/Lawton MI area, let me know.

Was just coming to post this.

Cute but crazy eyes.

Former owner must have been a red head nurse, whose is starting to move on to horses.

Poor little fella escaped when he could.

OP, DON'T GIVE HIM PEANUT BUTTER, it may trigger him.

Cute pup.  Any collar?  Take him to the vet and see if he has a chip.  Be nice to have a new dog but it would stink if someone is out looking for him.  Good on you for getting him to a safe space.

He took it to a vet, no chip.  Doesn't look like the coat is matted.  He hasn't been out on his own long.

Remember, just because you found him doesn't necessarily mean the family that lost him doesn't want him.

A tree could have fell and knocked a hole in the fence, a neighbor kid could have left a gate open, a trespasser or utility man may have left him out.

You owe it to the dog and his former family to at least try to reunite them. they may miss him terribly.

I know I would if my dogs some how were let loose without my knowledge or fault.

You have a point.  But I'll  be the asshole in the room, if the owners didn't collar and chip him then they are not responsible dog owners.

Pretty old, from the teeth and legs I would guess 8/9 at least, but guessing older.  Well taken care of by the looks.  Very nice coat, a little bit skinny in the ribs for how I've kept dogs, but I don't know his diet so I can't tell if he's underfed or anything.  Found a couple of tick's, a LOT of burrs, a few cuts, and some deep cracks/cuts in his paws that have me a little concerned.  I've never had Aussie's so I don't know if that's a normal thing for them.

Aussie shepherds are the second most awesome dog breed on the planet.  If you can't find his people, or if his people are garbage who ditched him, enjoy your time with that dog, as you will rarely find a better.

MaNY full bred aussie are born with tails. They are docked very early. Backyard breeders and people who dont care about breed standards may not  spend  the money to have it done. Thats an aussie dog.

If you wind up keeping him, have the vet check for worms.  Pretty easily picked up in the "wild".  Could keep him from gaining weight.

No, cuts and cracks in the paws are NOT normal things for an Aussie shepherd.   I'd get that guy checked out soon.

If you keep it a good grooming is in order and utter butter on the pads for a few weeks will heal the cracks right up. It is fairly normal for outside working dogs but should be treated of they get bad.

Good to know, my old GSD used to have pretty gnarly ones, but they were apparently normal.  

I did take him to a vet already and they did a quick check for worms, and other obvious things and thought he looked fine, but if we don't find any owners over the weekend we'll take him in to our preferred vet and get him all squared away.

Boiled chicken.  Sister in law (vet) recommended it as it would most likely be the least...damaging to his stomach.



On a side note, he doesn't like me pounding away on the keyboard.  Looked at me, snorted, and walked to another room.

Just so you know, that might be some little kids best friend.

It doesn't look like some mal-nourished street dog, and I do know the look.
A dog more than likely escaped its previous owner.

If you really want to do the right thing post up "Found Dog" posters on the current locals and call your local Humane Society

Please take to the vet for a possible chip in the neck.

How close was the camera to your knees in the last picture?  I'm guess VERY close as your legs look about twice the size they should be compared to how small your body looks.  It's a common optical illusion.
