This dog has been roaming the neighborhood for at least 3 days. No collar, the police are aware and unable to get it, animal control won’t try until tomorrow. Pic has been posted to a missing pets facebook group.
It’s below freezing. I tried bringing out food and water, but it won’t let me anywhere near. Is there anything I can put out to help this dog through another frozen night, assuming it comes anywhere near my house again?
Edit the following morning: I never saw it again, but a neighbor saw it this morning, so at least it survived the night. Hopefully the pros can take care of it today.
If you’ve got a large cardboard box leave it out overnight with a blanket and some food and a used bath tower or shirt that smells like you (like people). Might make getting through the night easier & starts building trust in people again
