The puppy

The puppy is a cute nearly solid black shepard mix. It has long legs. Its tail appears to have been cut short. It’s probably 1/4 the length it should be based on the leg length. It has a white mark on its chest and three white toes on each back foot. It is healthy and well-fed but otherwise appears to have been mistreated. It cowers mostly. Quick movements, even a distance from it, startle it. If you try to pet its face, it buries it in the floor or a corner. We’ve put feelers out to try and find the owner but since it appears to have been treated harshly, I’m not sure I want to find the owners. As small as it is, and knowing how our neighbors treat their pets, I am assuming it was dumped and therefore doubtful we’ll find owners. Pets already outnumber people 2 to 1. Now it will be 9 to 4.
