This POOR dog! I live a few minutes out of town, and have two different ways to get to town. One of the ways I go(usually when I have to make a trip to the vets) there's a Rottweiler chained up outside of this house. I noticed him one day, and HOPED he was just out there temporarily to go potty. But now I check for him every time I drive by, and he's always there. He's chained to a tree, and has one of those TINY igloo houses. I'm sure he has no wiggle room in that thing. It's been really hot and humid here lately, and I feel so bad for him. The first day I noticed him, he was jumping at the end of his chain trying to get to (who I assume to be) his owner who was completely ignoring him. He would lunge forward and twist his neck and his body would fling forward. It was awful. And what's worse is half the time I see him, he doesn't have food or water set out for him.
I live in a small-ish town where the cops here told my mother there was nothing she could do when her neighbor left their two year old outside by herself and my mom almost hit her with her work truck on accident. We don't have "animal control" here, we have police officers. And police officers who don't seem to care all that much. Is there anything anyone can think of that I can do for this dog(although I don't have high hopes)? This summer is supposed to be hotter than any other summer, and it's already extremely humid here. I'm afraid this LARGE Rottie will have a heat stroke..
