@@white_tiger9298 Pitts are amazingly smart and sadly they are frequently dumped and left in shelters. The media has hyped and butchered the truth. They're very strong and loyal animals. Sadly I think that in the wrong hands they can be abused. I feel once they start to reach their potential and people see how incredibly strong they are. I feel sometimes people become fearful and dump them. The failure to train them properly does them a great disservice... I have a red nose pitbull who is about 120 lb, still growing and nothing but pure muscle. He has no idea he's supposed to be vicious. He thinks he's a lap dog. My cat bosses him around.

Get a call the next day saying, "Um, I have two cats here, somehow they got in and I found them asleep on my bed when I got home. They both have collars on with tags and your number on them." I said "Is one grey striped, and the other orange?" "Yep." Turns out cats are loyal to their locale, not owner. SMH!!! ((( =^••^= )))

yeah but that's in the city. looks like he was out in the country a bit so he likely was able to catch food here or there. i wouldn't be surprised if other people fed him too since this likely wasnt the only couple looking to adopt him.

[@F907.]

No its definitely possible it is also seen with cats, they are just very skilled in finding prey and sleeping spots. We have had a cat who was a stray but his weight was fine, and survived a lot of winters out in the cold, if there is enough food (squirrels, wild rabbits etcetera) they look fed, but most of the time arent!

We frequently forget how tough they are and how good instincts they have, but it absolutely depends on the environment.

I’ve followed their story on tiktok since they started trying to take Scooby in. He’s been living on their property and sleeping in the woods. They would leave food out for him. He’s only about a year old and a half and he was on their property for quite some time. They also don’t really have neighbors. Doesn’t seem like a very densely populated area, so the likelihood of scooby having another home nearby is slim. They believe that he was dumped nearby so he was probably being fed by whoever had him prior to dumping him, and fed by them thereafter

I thought so too. When he "disappeared", he went home. Either way, hope he's doing okay. Kinda feel bad for his other owners, but then again, I wonder if they aggressively started looking for him once these nice folks took him inside.

Not a chance that dog just spent an entire winter, outside and alone rummaging through garbage in a spacious, wealthy neighborhood. No bloody way. He was inside somewhere and being fed.

[@gabrielsnotdead6912]

They found him when he was around 6 months then fed him until he came home so when they met him he probably wasnt eating. He did look underweight for his size

[@jessicaspaid198]

I follow them on tiktok and they said on there that they would take a bowl of food for him down to the edge of the woods everyday.

[@TheHuxleyAgnostic]

Well, if they're out in the far suburbs, or even rural, he could be fending for himself. Used to have a lab that seemed to be able to find and catch things pretty easily, the few times he got away up at the cottage, when I was a kid.

yea i doubt it, most cases of pet abandonment/abuse probably never see the light of day. people get away with this sort of thing all the time, hence why its still a prevalent problem. WE have to make them have their day. Cant wait on hopes and dreams to implement justice in this world.

@Lalalola I don't think the length of his coat means anything. Some dogs have coat that just doesn't grow. Like most chihuahuas and pitbulls. And this dog looks like a pitbull mix.

[@CambieSweets]

@@chelseas.horizon2222 The coat matters. Where I live, the winters are brutal and most people who have short-haired dogs here put a fleece/coat and slippers (when it’s snowy and icy) on their dogs. These short-dogs who are not evolved for cold weather (lacks a double coat/ dense longer fur or hair/ fur between toes) don’t fair well out in the cold for long periods of time. Dogs that would fair well would be a Siberian Huskie or Alaskan Malmute.

I love how it kind of seems like their house dog sort of brokered the deal.
