ok, here's the thing: I'm on the east coast so there's nothing I can do, on the other hand even if I was near you, my own dog of chaos would not dig the extra company nor would I be into the idea of saying to the law that a dog lives here that don't.
Oddly enough, I have done that - but I knew the dogs and I knew they were in a good home, actually - that's wrong - I did that so my dog could be fostered elsewhere before she was my dog, I let the liberator use my address so this dog could be saved.
**My dog became my dog after I saw how horribly she was being neglected from the person who got her out of the pound [a few hours before being gassed].
Why was the dog going to be gassed ??
Because the dog was a known troublemaker and escape artist.
Now here's the thing - my dog became my dog once I saw that she was going to be given away to the first person who would take her, because the foster'er decided that Loki was "unmanagable".
Around this time - Loki looked at me with very sad eyes for a way out, and I was able to pull it off.
A week later once in my place, Loki's so called problems were gone, because Loki was simply looking for a forever home, which she now has.
However - I have to be very careful with my dog - because she does not get along with other dogs, unsavory characthers, etc etc....
Which brings us back to your situation: I'm reading that your dog bit two homebums.
I'm reading that SLO declared your animal potentially dangerous.
I'm reading that you need someone who'll say the dog lives with them so you can get your dog out and then be on your way.
I'm reading that you want to ["come up with a crew of people to run a recon and steal him plus a few other pups and have a ride out"]
I'm also reading that ["We have a muzzle for him so there wont be any other accidents."]
I got news for you - muzzles ain't the answer, I carry one myself - along with a break stick - because my "always leashed dog" has been attacked twice by loose dogs, and my dog is now in total KEN mode [kill everyone now] when she feels a threat, which I cannot blame her for.
The answer is keeping your dog away from any kind of situation which can lead to trouble.
About these homebums who you say ["teased him and got bit"] was anything done to stop the teasing ??
Did the homebums get the shit beat out of them since ??
Your man looks like he could dish out a vicious beating if provoked.
No listen, don't get me wrong - I genuinely feel bad for your dog, but before you even think of getting more pups - make sure you can handle the one
you have.
Because I am a dick and research everything that comes my way before passing judgement, I decided to go here and see things for myself: http://www.slocounty.ca.gov/AServ/asfindanimal.htm
Is this where your dog [is it one dog or two ??] is located at ??
I did not see him [Sid] here.................... ^^
I looked into that place and it seems to be one of the better places an animal could wind up, as their kill rates are pretty low - and usually not without reason.
Again, I'm really sorry about your situation, and of course your dog situation, but asking kids to go steal your dogs is not the answer either.
**You need to figure out how your going to keep your dog safe and sound, which in turn will get your dog released back to you.
Always remember: Your dogs come first before everything.
Your dogs depend on you, they need you, they look up to you - and if this incident does not have a happy ending, then use it as a learning experience so something this does not ever happen again, because it's the dog that are the ones who always suffer the most in the end.
Good Luck.
PS. I saw both your posts immediately after you posted them.
I have no answer as to why I remained silent until now.
