Cross your fingers for a nice dog....
I HATE this. Arrived at work this morning to find a dog sleeping by the back door at work. He's clearly a young adult, black lab/pit mix; neutered; and has been wonderfully cared-for. He's fit, wit...

Great news, but I think the first thing I would have done is taken him to the vet to see if he was chipped, then called animal control in the town to see if he was reported missing. Probably would have avoided Craig's List-I'm not very trusting. Our police department Twitter feed also lists animals that have been lost and/or found. Gotta love the happy ending, though!
We live out in the boonies, so I had called both counties' animal control departments; and I was the only one working today, so the vet trip wasn't going to work. Turns out he wasn't chipped anyway (shelter checked). "Animal Control" is a bit of a misnomer around here, hence me having to bring the dog to them AND pay a "surrender fee" of $25. Whatever - he's clearly a beloved family member and they'll get him back safe and sound :-)
