>>With regards to where I use to work, no you can not have that information. You are well outside the circle of trust. In fact, this thread is really starting to get stupid.

It passed stupid a looooong time ago. You can keep saying things that aren't true just as long as you like, but that will never make them become true.

I just called Dekalb County Animal Services. In your county, here's what you do to establish ownership of a stray if you don't want to take it to the shelter:

1. check for ID, including a microship
2. make a "good faith effort" to find the owners
3. the dog is yours after **three days** (the hold time at the shelter is 5 days, but for a private finder it is 3 days)

That is ALL that is legally required in your county.

I specifically asked the AC officer if AC had a "duty" to come out for a stray if I didn't want to take the stray to the shelter. She specifically said NO.

Give it up, SgtStinky. On this one, you are simply wrong.
