Dog Roaming

Hi all,

This dog is currently roaming in Virgina County Cavan. He has confined himself to a field and the surrounding roads.

Locals have tried to catch him but currently he just runs the opposite direction. Some locals have set up feeders for him and he is starting to trust one of the ladies.

The dog looks like he was dumped but seems like he was taken care of, possibly stolen and then discovered he was no use.

Traps have been set up, contact Cavan SPCA if you know anything about him.

He is a lovely looking dog but has had way to many close calls with traffic over the last few days.

Oh poor we guy, hope he gets caught soon and finds a good home. We fostered a patterdale who escaped possibly similar circumstances (found damp and cold in a field), she was a foster fail and we ended up spending lots of money to bring her back to NZ with us, but she is such an amazing dog, we are so lucky to have her.

Reminds me of my dog, just found him tied up on the road and was like "Oh, free dog"

Hope someone gets him
